Just be patient! I wouldn't worry about it too much until 3 weeks go by. Some plants just take longer than others, so two weeks is just an estimation for sexing plants. On my last grow, it took my plants ~2.5 weeks to start showing sex characteristics.

be patient and stop worrying :)
it can sometimes take much longer than that to show sex. you probably have a somewhat sativa-ey strain and flowered it before it was sexually mature, yes?
just wait not but a few more days or even a week and then you will start to see them :)
and about the stretch, this is normal for flowering plants, you aren't doing anything wrong there either.

it can easily happen overnight with 1 pistil showing, next couple of days the rest of the plant should catch up with the swiftness.good luck bud

as far as sativa-ey i have no clue what that is and idk if i started flower too early i did it after the 8th week exactly

i used a small grow light while they were seedlings and now i have a t5 on top and am using the grow light under the canopy so i dont have to worry about the undergrowth not having enough light they look amazing most have 7 leaves now be sweet if they hit 11 by harvest

do you mean seven nodes like? (the node is where the petiole - small stem connecting the leaves to the main stem - meets the main stem.)
sativa and indica are two main types of phenotype of a cannabis plant. indicas will be shorter and have denser buds and a shorter flowering time, whereas sativas will be lankier, have a longer flowering period, and have wispy, less dense buds

yes 7 nodes, so basically i have a cross breed?

no i was asking if your plant was more sativa-ey because as far as i know sativas take a little longer t sexually mature (i could be wrong in saying that though) so that could have een why it's taking your plant a little longer than usual to show sex

not necessarily,stretchng,amount of veg time and nutes play a role in the amount of nodes.

my girl took a little over a month to show sex and the others in the same cab aren't showing anything yet so i guess it depends on strain?

definitely,us trying to imitate nature throws in all types of variables not counting the possibility of several countless pheno's contained in one seed batch that can all have diff. periods at which they reach maturity
