Hmm.. The last pic could be a male preflower but it's too early to tell I'd say.

Edit: I just read that you were still in the veg stage. Preflowers do not always show in the veg stage, but they can. I've actually never had preflowers show during veg.

well i think im gonna veg longer i planted them on march 20 so how long you think i should wait until i flower?
Do you think i should keep that guy in there for longer just to make sure it wont pollinate will it?

They cannot pollinate until you start flowering them. You could flower now or veg as long as you want, really depends on what your grow room is capable of. If you've got the room, veg them a little longer for a bigger yield.

everything ive read says that when u hit 12 in u should start flowering being that the plant will double or triple in size during flowering stage!! if its a male u will get clusters of balls at the nodes not just one!! i think ur safe to keep them growing for now!!

Ok here is a picture of their size right now i have a 3x3x6.6 hydrohut so when do you think i should put them on 12/12 also should i put them on 12/12 find sex then go back to 18/6 or just sex them when they are flowering then pull the males and just let them keep flowering What do you guys think?

They are 12 inches right now

Don't switch from 18/6 to 12/12 and back to 18/6, it'll confuse the plant. If I were in your position, I would flower them at 12", because they are going to double or triple in size by the time they are done making those frosty buds. But if you have room for more than 3ft tall plants, veg a little longer to maximize that yield.

can you clone after the sex is determined? I have just went into flowering 12/12. I would like to take clones but I do not want to take the supposed mothers out of flowering.
I have read that you can do this up to 2 weeks into flowering.

Oh yeah by the way I am in a simmilar predicament.
My p's are all around 10" and they are just now 25 ds old.

Are these just regular pistols or is this a sign of sex?

ValuableVariable - Those are on both sexes, and I believe they are called stipules(?). Pistils from females or balls from males show in the middle of the stipule, the stem, and the new side shoot.

Midgradeindasouth - I'm sure that you can clone during the beggining of flowering but I'm also sure it'll affect the supposed mother negatively.

Mosberg911 - If they get a little taller, then triple in size during flowering and will be hitting your lights, don't wait. But if say, you let them get to 15" then they triple in flowering to about 4ft and won't be hitting your lights, then let them get a little taller.

Midgrade I sexed my plant about 1 week into flowering without a problem. The pics in my journal show the clones and the mother is the one i'm flowering, it's about done figuring about another 2-3 weeks.
