marijuana plants not flowering

i have an outdoor grow going in the northern us, plant r growing beautifully but the havent started to flower, hell they havent in even started showing sex yet!

what r u complaining about?? i see nothing wrong with that yet........

Patience is key

well i just thought i should have seen something by now

what lat are you at... i am at 42 and flowering just started

im at 42 also

is there anything that i could be doing that is delaying flowering

how big are they???

abt 6 feet tall and bushy as hell

you dont have any preflower either... i would think that is kind of strange... mine are bag seed, and were showing preflowers about close to 3 weeks ago and checked couple days ago and the flowers have started to form... i would just be patient and give it another week or so... you have any pic's

what is preflower

How to determine the sex of Marijuana
Preflowers, as opposed to full-blown flowers, generally appear after the fourth week of vegetative growth from seed. Check carefully above the fourth node. Please note that preflowers are very small and impossible to differentiate without magnification. A photographer's 10x loupe is handy indeed when examining preflowers.

As the images below demonstrate, the female preflower is pear shaped and produces a pair of pistils. Frequently, the female preflowers do not show pistils until well after the preflowers have emerged. Thus, don't yank a plant because it has no pistils. Pistillate preflowers are located at the node between the stipule and emerging branch.

Well it is summer, Budding takes place in spring and fall. So don't worry about it.

Male (staminate)

The male preflower and flower may be described as a "ball on a stick." Frequently, a male plant will develop mature staminate flowers after prolonged periods of vegetative growth. These appear in clusters around the nodes.

The following image shows a male plant in early flowering. Staminate flowers are located at the node between
the stipule and emerging branch. Note the clusters of flowers.

It's not fall for 2 more days.

good luck man

thanks for the pics, my plants have tons of the female looking preflowers although none have any pistils but i didnt see any male preflowers either

that is good then, now the real waiting begins, enjoy

well if your woried about not getting a harvest before the season is over you can do manual induce flowering by covering up your plants if its possible
