Hmmm that's interesting, I do see what looks like to be a little hair right there. I'm starting to wonder if you got a hold of an auto flower strain from your bag seed?
Auto flower plants don't need to drop to 12-12 to show sex. I believe you can run them straight 16-8 through the whole grow and they don't get to tall either like 18" or so if that.
Here is a thread I've been watching because I'm interested in the auto flower strains. It might be worth a look to ya. There are multiple variety's and lots of pictures.

Great job tho man and keep up the good work.
I'll be lurking around.
Thanks bro, all info is mucho appreciated, I highly doubt its a autostrain, I read around here a few places that some show pre-flowers at 5-8 weeks'ish. The other reason I doubt that an auto was in the bag seed was these plants are 24+" tall, also the hairs started appearing shortly after nodes started to alternate. There are roughly 4 in the garden that have started showing hairs, but its bag seed hard to tell what it is.
The lanky girl that I have named stink foot #1, because the bag it came from when you smoked it smelled like someone didn't do there sock laundry, and when you rub the stem it smells JUST like it did in the bag, its the only one of the 8 seeds from that bag I planted that has the smell like that, mind you there are like 6-8 differnt bag seeds in the mix going on here, that I hand picked from good smoke over the years, hard to say what's what.
I just put numbers on the cellophane instead of any indicator of what kinda herb it was from, except for delores, and stinky foot. Its funny cuz 2-3 ppl that smoked herb that smelt like feet, said the same thing,... " hey man did that shit smell like dirty feet to you?"
It was good smoke though, just had a very distinct odor. Stinky foot #1 has hairs on every node now though, I'll try to get some pictures if i go by there tonight, monday for sure.
I would dig it if they were auto's though, save me the hassle of getting these rooms divided so i can have a veg and a 12/12 side.
After this grow, I think I'm going to order barneys farm LSD seeds, I was torn between that or ata tundra (sp?) I seen around somewhere. I just wish I remembered what mutant came from, I know I only saved 2 seeds outta what I had, and I wish I woulda took pictures of the seeds they were overly huge with a very prominate ridge on the side.
I'm kinda rambling here, don't mind me.
There is another one among the mix that I'm not sure about it, its so short, looks kinda spindly but it smells really good and is all kinds of purple but hard to tell under the HPS light pictures. I thought alot of the purpling i had at the begining was due to lower temps when I started, but this one has gotten darker and darker. Its the one in the first batch of todays pictures, in the back near the timer on the wall, short lil bastard. That one also has the start of hairs, but the nodes aren't alternating and it looks like its just stuck not growing, i'll leave it and see what happens.
