Hey buddy. You will see stigma, (white hairs, pistons) come from the bud sites, (calyxes). First signs of stigma flowering time is usually 55-65 days depending on strain but always check the trichomes too. But them days are always nearly in the area of what a plant needs as in the way of flowering. Some autos might begin stigma at wk 3-4 or 5 I got away with one till wk 8 cause I stalled it. First pic is signs of stigma. Good luck buddy. growdiaries.com/diaries/129885-grow-journal-by-gottagrowsometime/week/719413

Should be soon. Autos are stating to be just as long as photoperiods now a days with longer veg times. if your pressed for time auto will enter flower early from stressors like over feeding. Good Luck!

Look at the main stem where the branches grow/sprout from. When sexual differentation occurs, calyxes with white PISTILS ( also known as primordia/pre-flowers) will form here, 2-3 weeks before flowering commences in earnest. Week 7 in my diary "cannabis conundrums" has pictures of these primordia, if you are keen to see what to look for. Just remember, - less leaves = less energy production = less growth! Heavy defoliation can cause delays with flowering. Hope this helps, Organoman.

It will start producing pistils or will form balls if a male which there would be no pistils then.
