If you just started 12/12 its gonna be a week/10 days before you know definitively. IMHO I didn't see anything resembling a pistil. You do have some nice grow shoots and in a week or so they'll go bright green... right before you'll see the double pistil....or not. Some of my most beautiful babies have turned out to be male.Good luck but to soon to tell.
Nothing to go by. The "hairs" people are seeing in the second pic are stipules. I say this because a) there's only one "hair" on each side of the stalk and they're too uniform to be pistils b) there are no visible calyxes so why would the hairs be so visible? c) the "hairs" seem to originate from the main stem rather than a caylx between the node.

Those are stipules as well, not pistils.

The trick is to take the picture and look at the negative of it for far better contrast.
Looking at the negative, the two pistil hairs as well as stipules are visible where stated in the middle picture.
Stipules are the little pointy "fingers" that appear wherever a new shoot meets the main stem. There should be four of them wherever a shoot meets the stem, 2 on each side. I think they are supposed to protect new growth in it's early stages.
Pistils are the hairs that come out of calyxes. They form buds.
