Be patient Blackhawk, if their stretching the plant is telling you it wants/needs more light. They will usually take a couple of weeks of 12/12 to show sex. How many days you on now?

How do you expect to show signs of a female if you haven't even flowered?

50 bucks for 3 seeds? what a rip off, you can get 10 seeds for that price at any top quality site, Never pay more then $10 a seed, and that's high, normally most places will let you buy 5 seeds ,then you will get 5 free or alike.

Nope still no sign!! The things coming from the stem are called stipules. Both sexes get them. I see a very little growth starting that will eventually become the caylix/balls. Not long now tho!

For my next grow m starting next month. I have built a grow cab that is 4ftx2ftx5ft (lbh)
should I stick to CFLs or use an hps and mh.
Also is it possible to use just hps for veg+flower??

U can use hps/mh in there if you have proper ventilation. Yes you can use hps for veg/flower

do you think it would be possible to use a mh/hps in this setup in the main chamber? It has a big fan for exhaust and intake each.

Those pictures look like 7-10 days till you see the full preflower calyx with hair unless pollen sacs too develop in this same manner.In my case a new growth will form at the node where a single fan leaf is present on a stem. Like in your photos.The branch of this new growth and those stipules form a 45 degree angle, and at that very point you have a small weird pod like thingy. This pod is what became preflower calyx for me
