You got a son or she could be ballzy. Like everybody said wait for hairs. You have plenty of time. There will be no question long before a male pollinates. No worries.

About 6 - 7 weeks in veg with topping and lst to keep canopy low. Flipped once I got about 5 - 6 alternating nodes.
Day before flip:

Thanks mate. I'll keep an eye on them. Just don't wanna miss one and end up having him bust a nut on my girls. Good to know that they don't pop soon after appearing.

How tall would you say those plants are

I topped 5 above the 4th node early on and tied them down to increase canopy size. I have 2 I haven't touched and 1 is about 45-50cm and my little runt is only about 25cm. Overall average canopy height would have to be about 40cm. Have the light closer than recommended and I rotated the plants periodically to ensure all sides of the plant received similar light exposure to prevent stunted growth on the outer edges of the tent. I left the untopped 2 in the corner and didn't rotate so has not had the best light. I'm using a TS1000 LED 150watt.
go go kid

be carefull lowering the light too much. im no stranger to growing and usualy put the light as close as possible. then i baught a 2 mars hydro ts600's to put my seedlings under and i put the light closer then was sugested and burnt them all, well almost all. so you may want to raise the light a little, those led lights are very good at the recomended distance from the light.
i know i woul raise it a little. good luckwith your grow and dont be in a rush or take short cuts, you will be fine with the light raised a bit more

Using a LUX meter to get good light strength about 1/3 into the canopy but with enough height to get decent light to the edge of the tent. Don't worry I've had my issues with light and temp early on. It tops 49 degrees Celsius here in summer and we are middle of autumn and still tops of 35. Was quick to get light height and temp right and haven't had problems since.

You got that canopy from 7 plants off of 150 watts ? I thought most people say 100 per plant?

Started as a test grow and has progressed well so far. Yeah 7 plants but 1 is shit. Topping and LST worked magic. I know 150watts isn't the greatest but I think the rotation of the plants has helped with growth in veg. It's a soil grow. Have fed them 3 times since start. Have just given a 1/4 strength dose of P and K bloom enhancer.
