I flipped this plant six days ago as it is getting pretty tall. Is it safe to assume she is a female? I’m noticing these hair shaped pistils all over and no egg sacs so far.

Or is it stil too early

How long until the egg sacs start to show? It’s gonna be sad cutting this baby down if it is indeed a male

Pollen sack, not egg. Couple days to be sure.

Look for pistils growing from the calyx.
I see stipules so far but no real telltale signs.

a few days of 16/8 during veg would have helped it mature faster then simply sticking with 18/6 throughout
its been under 12/12 now im assuming for 9 days and should be telling sex very very soon

Thanks a lot for this, pic saved
I think I'm seeing the pistils growing out of the calyx it's at a weird angle making it hard to snap a picture, I need to raise the lights as well.

I'm getting anxious because it's my first time doing this... lol
I think the cycle was 16/8 the whole time it was in veg.

mmm, look into negative feedback loops and pattern of oscillation in plants
a plant that experienced 16/8 tends to flower much sooner when switched to 12/12 but it also does come down to genetics of your 'pheno'

First and third pictures show pistils which are girl parts.
I'd say female for sure.

I was a little worried at first when Madbud said he was getting a male vibe, but once the pistils came out I felt a relieve. Now I'm just hoping she yields great, I also have 2 clones of this plant growing along with her.

I got this seed from a friend and am not sure what strain it is but judging from the leaves I think it's an indica dominant of some sort.

On the clones I got off of the mother plant, can I top it or should I just use some training techniques on these sister clones?

If the branches are still growing in pairs [ even to each other] then topping is a good start.
If the branches are growing staggered then using LST or super cropping would be my choice.

Can some experienced growers tell me what this strain might be?

All I can provide is I got this from a local dealer, and in the bud there are some orange trichomes. Smokes great though, seem like a sativa dominant strain.

Or is it too early?

have grown many a sativa, which is what you are working with. have also grown seeds from dealers but i just call them bagseed and dont trust that the dealer knows the source exactly. for example, i have bought cannabis sold as durban poison only because it came from a supplier in the durban region. i found that when i grew the seeds out they were indica even leaning close the full indica, which dp is not. same thing happened with swazi gold. currently i can only trust the source of the seeds going outside because i was present when they were harvested while working in lesotho.

I'm still waiting on seeds I ordered from Herbies, while I'm lucky this bagseed grew at all let along I'm about to get a good batch from this said bagseed. The prices are ridiculous where I'm at thus making me grow my own. But it was indeed a great journey learning all about this plant and the requirements it needs in order to provide me with great harvests.

At least you can identify it's sativa dominant strain. I personally prefer sativa over indica.

I'm gonna be trying that once I get more options. I got Shiskaberry from Herbies coming in; it says 100% indica, I hope it doesn't make me stay on the coach or bed or even worse the floor forever.
