Female seeds in veg for 4 weeks from seed, under 600w HPS, 24/0. I Cant tell what sex. I saw white hairs at first but today I notices what looks like pollen sacks. I purchased my seeds from a reputable seed bank. Your input would be greatly appreciated.

They are an auto-flower strain. I don't know if they are starting to flower or not. It's been a straight 24 hours of light right after germination. It appears to me that all 6 have buds on them. I'm confused at this point. So far everything has rolled like clockwork. these are the best pictures I could take.

they are all flowering and all show female traits.
I don't see anything pollen sack like.
put up a good, clear closeup of the part you think is male
try not to worry too much.
just curious - why choose autoflower? small space?

Thanks toon and copobo. I thought an auto flower would be easy since I'm new to this. I know now I could have handled a regular strain just as well plus I'd get a greater yield. I've made my share of noob mistakes and I've learned a lot from them as well. I already have plans for my next grow.

mistakes are key!
keep growing, keep making 'em!
there's only one way to get experience.
