Hey you should really get a 35x digital scope (i got one that hooks up to usb) - you can determine preflowers at 3-5 weeks without going to 12/12 -- that is not ideal for the plant as putting it into flowering enough to show flowers and taking it back out is a stress on the plant. If the scope isn't an option you can also cover just one branch and that branch will start showing flowers but not the rest of the plant... but get the digital scope it's worth it. It'll also let you see your trichs up close at harvest time and look up close for pests and problems. Very handy.

Looks like the other 3 are likely females to me 
kinda looks like they might even have pistils there but it's hard to tell from the photo... sometimes i have to really vary the angle to see for sure.

Watch for the hairs. That is the key.
Spotting male flowers proved more difficult for me, but someone
pointed out that male flowers are often on a small stalk where female
flowers are more sitting right on the stalk.
I found that my mothers had to get pretty bushy before I saw what I needed.
Check my "Crop #3" link below. I posted images of each mother and the
pre-flower that I managed to find.
Good luck,
JD

Yes, balls are on a stalk if you put them in an extended dark period, the stalk will extend. You usually can't tell without putting them in the dark. The way to tell boys is to look for the claw holding the ball

I'd say the male isn't definitely a male, give it a few days.

Sorry for the lack of updates, dealing with family matters. So I took some pics to show what my ladies are doing still vegging out, trying to get the growth they need before going to flower.
I cut my Auto Somango last week and jared it up tonight 1 1/4 oucnes not the greatest yield but sure smells great. I still have an Auto Critical Jack and Auto Jack to finish.
Auto Critical Jack, nice plant but a hungry bitch likes alot of nitrogen even in flower.
Auto Jack, will never grow this again as it hermied as it began to bud.
This one is cut and bent for 16 tops.
This one is cut and bent for 8 tops.

Thank Stone, they are a labor of love...lol. I will have vegged these for 60 days before flowering, I do belive it was worth it. The SOG is a new concept for me so it will be interesting to see how it does.

Sunday Fun Day, just a quick update as they ladies have been in flower mode for 4 days and the stretch is on. had one plant I wasn't really sure of sex and it finally showed so it met the scissors and is in the bag ready to go to the compost pile.
Auto Jack, waiting for it to finish up, currently flushing and waitin on ambers crystals to show.
16 clones I just placed in to flower, first SOG attempt I have 46 additional clones waiting for roots and planting.
