Hi @exceptional_chedda 😊
your little babies look absolutely beautiful! 🌱💚 Keep up the great work!
Those fine hairs you're seeing are a classic sign that you’re dealing with a female cannabis plant congrats! 🙌✨
And yes, with autoflowers, that’s often a sign that the plant is starting to get ready for the (pre-flowering) flowering phase. 🌸
That’s the blessing and curse of autoflowers they start early, but they’ll still grow strong and pack on some solid mass. 💪🌿
Best regards

I believe this to be a common sight with autoflowers, it happens to mine between week 2 and 3 usually. I wouldn't worry too much about it as even photoperiods will develop these pistils under a veg cycle long before you flip them into flower - just tells you that it's a female,

Forget autos..........you are now entering the early stages of flowering and will probably be waiting 6-8 weeks for that tiny plant to grow its flowers.
Grow photoperiod fems in future, that way YOU control when flowering occurs and only once you are satisfied with the plants size.
Autos really are a bad choice, especially for beginners and do not offer anything that can be achieved already with "normal" photoperiod plants.

Probably not anything you did, plant doesn’t look stressed it looks happy (: probably have another week or so but it will start stretching this week or the next. Be mindful of light penetration over the next few days to aid in the stretch before flipping itself to flower. I’m growing some autos right now if you would like to follow along and see how the process typically goes

Yeah, those are the first signs of pre-flowering and that they're now entering the stretch. Everything's great, a bit small but well, they'll give us a few grams.

Yes, that’s definitely quite early, but it speaks for strong genetics. What you’re seeing is indeed the pre-flowering stage – your plant is showing itself and revealing that it’s female. Wishing you lots of success and fun with your grow!

Hey 👋
Yep, preflower. It is common to see the first ones around week 3.
But no stress, she will need at least 1-2 weeks to start full flower mode.
Also the size doesn’t need to say anything about how good she yields.
I’ve seen reports with 40 cm plants which had 70g +dry weight.
Your plant looks good and healthy.
Enjoy your journey 👊🍀🖖

Probably early stages of flower phase... expect a good 4 more weeks of vege growth before it stops. You can't control if it is fast or slow to transition to flower.. autos do it on their own.
plant looks healthy. MAybe, just a 'faster' autoflower, which really just means smaller with less yield. autos aren't truly 'faster' in any way when you compare apples to apples.
