Safe to say flowering has begun?

First grow in a long time and a first auto grow. Had some issues sorting some things out but is it safe to say this plant has begun flowering? Pistils started forming about 2 weeks ago and this is where we are at now. We are about 6 weeks in a critical purple soil grow. Amongst the other 3 I have that are in preflower this one is the furthest along.

No photos to tell from::

I've had some strange things happen. With these autos. Just good to know were into flowering and I can safely transition to my bloom nutes and watch them fatten up.

Strange colors, spots and holes. Twisting of leafs. Some slight burn on crazy low feedings. One or 2 of the plants stunted while the other 3 grew pretty well. Just nothing was very consistent.

Sounds like bad genetics to me.

Been using ocean forest and happy frog. So that's def not the issue I'd agree that the genetics weren't consistent or not bred enough. Either way the strong have survived and 4 out of 5 are in flowering doing great

Definitely will. I figure the girls will be getting cut down in about 4 to 5 weeks max but we will continue to scope the colas once they start fattening up. This has been a minimal nutrient grow and I think they're doing great considering they bounced back but final weight will tell. Hoping for about 6-8 oz off these 4, got 5 more started that are at a week so there will be plenty to come!
