Thumbs down Does the white hairs grow green before you flower them
When the hairs grow are they green before they change to white. I know those things are not leaves because they are short and pointy. They are not white but green. They are growing above the steam next to the leaves and I still have them 24/0 of light. I hope they are all females!

No, flower appear white and in 2's.

The little single green pointy things coming off the stem are called "stipule"

those arn't the pistils if thats what your thinking, i know there is a name for them i just can't remember if you look at a diagram of a plant for sexing it will show you that these are not what you look at... those are however potential bud sites (male or female)

i noticed the same thing early in my carrier and did a lilttle seaching on it.

good luck with your grow, hope you get a bunch of bitches and no dudes

EDIT: Pistillate preflowers are located at the node between the stipule and emerging branch.

They are probably stipules. Pics would help, indeed.

No, males have them too.

You have to wait until you see white hairs: if you see them, it's a girl.

Good luck!
