Take pics from the side of mail stem at the top. I have seen sighs as early as three days but most of the time a few days more.

it's looking pretty healthy just make sure your switching the base nutrient from nitrogen to phosphorus and magnesium now that you transitioned from veg to flower.

Keep an eye out for pods those are male characteristics. look for the white pistils coming from an crossection.

Your plants look very good. I would check them a few times a days for sex. It could happen anywhere from now up to about 2 weeks into flowering. You should check a few times a day because the sooner you get the males out the better. Good luck and I wish you females! haha..

True, they are stretching but I have seen much worse. If you are using CFLs get them closer (within 1 inch!) and get more. If you are using other types of lighting then it wouldn't hurt to add a few CFLs in there.

Yea at first I thought they were small. But with the vitamin water in the back they look really stretched. But healthy. Try getting some lights on the side for undergrowth because you will have less bud sites but the extra light will at least help increase what buds you do have. But they look good otherwise and you'll get some nice smoke it looks like.
