is it normal....

for a sativa to be on its 9th week of veg and showing barely any preflowers, no pistils just tear drop growths.

Mine is the same way. I assume your outdoors?

Well there's your problem your still in veg you gotta switch to flower!

Im sure you just stated this question wrong but im just answering what i read!

well its outdoors and harvest is coming soon and i dont see shit, just little preflower chutes (female) and lots of alternating nodes, side branching is huge just keeps growing leafs!!! beautiful plant by the way

Growing outdoors means your in it for the long haul my friend. If she is not budding yet you have a little more while to go. I would say middle-end of November

are you sure its female? you said theres no pistils showing yet and tear dropped shaped growths to me sound like male flowers.

yeah there are barely any of those growth, just a few where i can see where the pistils are going to be, trust me i know its not a male
