pistles or flower?

I have three clones. 2 from one and the 3rd clone has a different mother.
At first it was very easy to tell the sex. It was very apparent. But now, the pistles have only grown in size. They are no longer little wiskers, they look like the start; of what my flowering plant. Can anyone tell me if it's normal or are they fixing to flower.
Oh. Also, the have been throught a few 12\12 cycles (that resulted in the plant that is flowering now). But I removed her and only the three clones are in the grow area... It is on a 18\6 light cycle.

These are the pictures of the flowering plant. And the 3 clones zoomed in and zoomed out so you could identify each plants set of "pistles"?

Not sure exactly what you're asking, but what I see are female flowers. you have them back on a veg schedule so they should revert back to vegging, maybe unless its an auto flower which I have zero experience with. That said it looking like you likely having some nutrient and or PH issues. One photo in particular looks like some significant clawing happening.

yes my question was if they were flowering or not. No Autoflower, just clones from bag seeds.
Ok now, I have heard if you revert a clone in flower back to veg it's a process called monster cropping. Are you frimilar with this. I actually want the clones to flower. So it's a good thing. But my friend who has been a Bobbie grower for many years (bag seeds when ever he had them. And always outside). He told me you could get bigger buds by increasing the light during the cycle. But I was a little reserved when he told me this because I've herd of the monster cropping before so I need to put them all back on 12\12 ? Even the large plant of the 4 shown in the pictures is been on this new cycle for 2 days now

Not flowering......what's up with the wood chips?

Um. I had asked a man at my local plant nursery about rockwool, or those little plettes for hydro baskets. He told me, all they are is orchid bark in pellets made of the same clay that garden planters are made from. So I had some and figured I try it out. I had to replant her she was fixing to get root bound. She was sitting very low in the planter so I put her in a deeper one. Also you say not flowering. Is that what pistles look like. At first I only got these two tiny bearly visible list led come from their mothers nodes. But she was under very low amounts of cfl. Now I've got 127watt cfl full spec on top of a full spec Led light (very low watts I bougt from home depot ) and 2 lower watt red/blue led spotlights. So then pistles are more visible because of the light being closer to the proper lumn lumn per watt?

what is crawling I've never herd of this trek before. Now as for the leaves I assume its because she is sitting very low in the container. Her roots were looking bound up. I changed the container ,and added a 125 full spec cfl so I'm gonn see what turns out. But yeah what is crawling?

If your refering to the plant being out of center. She was 4 colas and the stem broke in the center and I lost them but 1 of the clones is from her

You miss read me Tom. Clawing, not crawling, as in the ends of the leaves curl down like a claw. From what I've read and in my experience this happens with nitrogen toxicity. Hope that helps.

I do have a ph kit that has a nitro test so I'll give it a whirl. I'm sorry btw I can't read worth a damn. So what did you do about your plant.

I've had clawing before. Depending how bad I just stopped feeding for a few cycles. In a more serious case flush them with distilled or properly PH'd water. I guess I'm lucky, I seldom have run into nutrient or PH issues.

I have a ph kit that tests more then just alkilinity. I'm gonna go test the root site now. Hopfully all will be ok with it.
By the way, thank you. I appreciate the heads up. I just had a post that was more specific into the issues I was having. I was hopping for an answer or even ideas of what to look for. I don't even think 1 person replied to that part of the post.
I have tested the alkalinity pH and it was okay. I'm hoping it was just the container size.

It was completely depleted of potash, nitrogen and its potassium was reasonable. And PH was spot on. So I added a small amount of Happy Frog 555 hope it tunes in and levels off.
