Not sure how possible that is but I have a plant that’s just starting it’s 2nd week. One side the leaves are growing perfect. The other it’s a bit deformed, under closer inspection I notice what looks like a pistil as if it was a female. Is is possible to show that early ?

No.
You're probably looking at a stipule.
Do you have a pic?

First picture you can see what looks to be a pistil and the second is the leaf deformity. Honestly just curious.

it would be nice if they did, but you have to wait till you eigher change lightoing to 12/12 and wait till sex showes. or you have to wait till the plant naturaly shows sex as they mature

I've had fem plants show sex pretty early, say just after the 5th node, but in general it's a waiting game.
