I think that I see a pistil but it is hard to tell. I would say it is a female. Is the circled part a white hair? If so than you have yourself a female, congrats

Nope that is normal, it is called preflowers. It is the plants way of telling you that it is mature enough for flower. When do you plan on switching to flower?

I am not sure yet.
she is 9 inches tall right now. I might take her up to 14 inches or so and then switch to flower.
i have a small box and she is growing with 2 clones right now in the veg room.
I am harvesting some clones on friday so that will free up room in my flower room.

No do not trim her fan leaves at all. Leave them the way that they are and you will grow big buds

The plant needs the leaves to collect light and perform photosynthesis. All you will be doing is stressing the plant if you take off fan leaves. The only time I have heard of removing leaves is to allow for better airflow underneath the plant, I have done this once and I think my harvest suffered
