is this a male?

i think the second one shows it the best, seems like it just may be new growth because its open at the end, only my third plant and no males yet, do pods normally have open ends?

Looks like just new growth.
Give it a couple more days.
I've got something similar after I FIM'ed mine a week or so ago.

eyy knock on wood, tell you what though my spirits are raised. To be honest it wasnt till i had a zoomed pic on high focus that i even saw it was open, looks like a ball just slightly extended off the plant to the naked eye

It looks too young to tell, honestly.

Mine looks about 2-3 weeks past that, and it's still not showing signs of reproductive anatomy

unfortunately im leaning back towards it being a male, i looked at some pics online, and it just looks scarily similar to what i dont wanna see

Nothing besides its crip lol. Saved up seeds i got from good batches over the course of 4-5 months or so, got 6 seeds when said and done with. 1 was from a batch of some light green purp, other then that absolutely nothing.

from what ive read about experience growers idetifying males just by there growing patterns, mine grew like what you could say a male, darker then the last 2 i had which were females, grew much wider much quicker, yet stayed slightly shorter then the other ones did. Smelliest one of the 3 tho, that would be my kind of luck though, only cuz god loves me like that....

that does look like it could be a male node. But what is throwing me off is it's not symmetrically developing, or doesn't appear to be. Get a closer picture of that if you can. Try mounting your hand on something steady, macro shots blur with even the slightest movement. No matter what I only see one, so either it's a male and it only grew one ball so far (which i think is pretty improbable, the lower nodes would theoretically show it first I would think) Or it's a hermie either genetically or from stress (highly proobably because it's a random bagseed). Or the stress is causing that area to reveg with new growth, and it's just at a really early stage. What're the lights running at right now?

It also looks pretty stressed man, it's pretty young to be topped form what I can see, you may have a hermie not a male.

the plant has no stress, its never been transfered, i dropped 2 seeds in a pot of half miracle gro, half vegetable soil, and both sprouted, i picked the one that sprouted first as the chosen one as it only seemed fair. and males can have 1 pod to show there first signs, but this one has 2, one on each side exactly opposite, they both favor the left side.

That plant has been topped. the stem right above the alleged testicle is chopped off. What do you mean it has no stress?

You are aware trimming stresses a plant? Not in huge amounts, but it definitely does.

not young at all btw lol, its over a month old, topped it at the 6th node, most ppl top there plants at a lower node then that, 7th is the highest ive seen someone top at
