Pre flower ???

One of my veg plants has recently had many pistils pop up and I haven’t switched to 12/12 yet I’m not sure if this is normal or if I need to make an emergency 12/12 switch what do you guys think. I could probably switch to flower I just want these plants to be big.

Those are flowers. preflowers are single calyxes you'll find near the base of a branch. they don't form a larger flower, they remain single calyxes. If you still have symmetrical growth on your pant, then there will be 2 at each growth node for each potential branch. Asymmetrical growth - just 1 at each growth node. You've been in flower for 10-14 days, probably. So, something is wrong here. Either you have bogus information/product from breeder or it's getting long dark cycles already at least once and probably more. Hope it's been getting it consistently as opposed to a 1-off event because then you won't have to deal with a re-vege. This stage of flower development does not happen overnight. Was there any mistake in lighting? double-check timers. Maybe, you got a pack of autoflwoers by mistake and 4-weeks or so would line up well with this level of development, if that is true.

Photoperiod plants will show pre flowers when sexually mature, but not actually flower until you change to 12/12.
