u sure?? i think there are lil white hairs near the top. above the node below the growing tips... that sound like the right place for the first few hair (stamila??) to show?

the white hairs are called pistils. they emerge from calyxes.

i do see a pistil coming out of the top, but it looks like there are balls on the node below that. again, with these pics it's kinda hard to tell. they are still just showing sex. they look like the ones in the pic that bob bong called "100%" male. so that's just my $.02.

what power is the magnifying glass? probably 10-15X i would guess. it will help you out with when to harvest. you can pick up a jewelers loupe or a 60-100X microscope for under $15.

you can see it with your naked eye if you have good vision.

no sweat MG! you can definitely get by with what you have. you've still got a bit of time for all of that anyhow.
