No, stipules have NOTHING to do with flowering.
Pre-flowers will be actual pods (calyxes) with protruding whiie hairs (pistils).
"Small growths" sounds more like secondary branching.
If you are keen, go to week 7 in my diary "cannabis conundrums" and I have posted pictures of both male and female pre-flowers, as well as other interesting cannabis examples, and these pictures may help you to decide what is going on with your plant when the time comes.

stipules are not sex organs. they don't indicate sex at all. You will find some bro-science out there that thinks they are/do but .. just bro science nonsense. An excellent example of how the peanut gallery can take something that is not true and repeat it ad nauseum to the point it is 'true' according to popular belief.. .like 'stress causes heart burn' lol, or 'going out in the rain will make you sick' ...

What you are observing is the appearance of stipules and small growth on the internal nodes, is part of normal vegetative development. While these new growths are important signs of healthy plant growth, they are not necessarily an indication of pre-flowering yet.
Pre-flowering is typically identified by the development of pistils (white hairs) at the nodes, which are the first signs of female flowers. At this stage, what you are seeing is likely just normal node expansion and new leaf formation. Continue monitoring the internal nodes over the next 1–2 weeks; once pistils appear, you will know the plant is entering the pre-flowering stage.

As seen in one of my pics on week 16, you can see a dried brown spot on one of my leaves. It's not on a ton of leaves but it's in a few different spots. What could be causing this? If it's a PH issue I don't know because I'm doing no-till and haven't monitored the PH.Week 16

So I have been viewing some of the grows on here and am noticing that Autos grown in soil tend to flower sooner than hydro grows. My question is will feeding bloom notes earlier trigger a reaction to the plant to signal when to flower. Do I have any control over that? ThanksWeek 8
