High Djs62,
The first thing you will notice are white hairs (pistils) growing where the buds will grow.
If you want to see pictures from the first signs of cannabis I do have a great article from the growweedeasy website. This article will show you every step from the first stages of flowering with pictures and explanations about everything you need to know.
Here is the link:

Happy Growing! 😋

You will start to see snow-white pistils growing just under the newest growth ... I tried to zoom in on your photos but couldn't get close enough to see. But from the looks of them, you'll be seeing them shortly! Beautiful grow!
Good luck!

Post a close up of a top of a plant.
The short answer I was taught decades ago, "if it's got balls it's a boy, if it's spreading white legs it's a girl". Maybe it wasn't PC, but it was memorable.
Good luck

You will start seeing pistils or if a male it will start producing pollen sacs.

Can this Auto Flower after all? RQS Sweet Skunk Auto grown in Coco/Soil mix/FF TrioShe very likely had defoliation/nutrient issues and completely stopped growing after 4 weeks of veg. I put her outside (Florida sunshine) for a week of flushing and drying out. I was rewarded with some new growth! Can an Autoflower continue growing again and still flower?5mo ago

Are Kaiydaan's Buds Developing ProperlyMy grow seems to be progressing smoothly, I'm just concerned about the way the buds are looking. The stigmas of Kaiydaan, on her developing buds have "shriveled" down (For lack of a better word) and have turned orange. Is she developing and growing the way she should?Week 6

Should I be concerned? Is this even an autoflower?I am growing 2 different autos (Purple Kush and Auto Jack) and 1 is flowering MUCH faster than the other. It's making me think the Auto Jack might not even be an auto. Has anyone ever had 1 auto take much longer or seem much more developed then the other when started together?THXBuds. Too few

Trichomes don’t matureI’m flushing slowly, has been almost two week now. Just water with PH between 6.5 and 6.8. The plant seems ready, pistils are brown for 70%, yellow leaves are dropping off, but I don’t get why trichomes are still transparent, they aged slowly compared to the rest. Is it normal?Buds. Other

Focusing on Full Healthy BudsI think my baby autos went to Flower way too early and I’m not too sure where or when I made the mistake. With that being said I know my yield won’t be huge (as I am expecting this since this is my first grow) but is there any way that I can maximize the size of my buds?Buds. Too few
