Green Crack is showing sex

Hi,

Total newbie, but somewhat experienced plant guy. Nevertheless, nervous like the first AA meeting.
Actually, when I was a teenager I scratched a few "home grown" plants in the southern parts of British Columbia. Time passes and now I live farther north. About 52° in fact. The long summer days are great.

With that in mind, I have a photo from yesterday (July 12) and a few questions.

This Green Crack (Crop King) variety was started indoors in April and has been growing outdoors since late May. It was started indoors under lights on an 18/6 schedule for a month before leaving the house. I have it potted in 4 gallons of something like Sub's DIY super soil and it's recently changed from opposite to alternate phylotaxi. Currently it is 80 days old and receives about 16 hours of light a day, yet it's starting to show sex.

Wondering if there's a little bit of Ruderalis in the GC genes.

See photo right here with a magnified inset:




The questions I have are these:

1 - Can a cannabis plant show it's sex with 16 hours of daylight?
2 - Can this girl transition to a boy?
3 - If she can change sex, what can I do to prevent this?

Cheers!

cannabis shows its sex when its mature, they can turn hermie, the only thing you can do to prevent this is be good to it, dont stress it, and hope the weather is favorable

Can I cut some stems to make clones from this plant at it's early flowering stages?

I can be done ,but if it's grown from a feminized seed better growing from fresh seed ,with regular grown seed plants far less chance of it turning on you and herming,because it's only just showing its sex you have no problems with cloning it ,
