FLOWERING/bulbous nodes.. questions

i've been in the flowering stage for 6 days now and am looking for signs of gender. i've noticed that where all the nodes are at along the main stem that the nodes are looking swollen. is the the beginning of the plant about to flower? are these swollen nodes going to get bigger and then bust out some flowers? i'm just trying to get the hang of this and want to know what i'm looking for. pictures online are very clear but not educated in what to look for. i know about the tiny white hairs and balls and basic stuff like that. just have questions about these swollen notes.

any comments are appreciated. thank you

uhmm not so sure about the whole swollen nodes thing. sounds normal though. u don't have to do any thinking about the sexing. just try to forget about the sex for a week and it will make its sex very clear. I had to wait around a week and a half till the first pistil showed up.

thanks for your comment

only 1 seed out of 7 seeds grew up to be a female for me..........so I'l say its best to have more than 1 to hope for a girl from.........but good luck waiting anyway because if u got a girl then u'l have a chance for smoke.

yeah i took my chance with one seed (all I had) and luckily 2 weeks ago it showed its female pistils. few.

i actually have 2 plants going. had 4 seeds and only 2 survived and so i'm hoping one is a female,,,,and one a male so i can get some seed supply. i may do some gibberellic acid if i have a female
