early sexing persay? pics

Okay, so I know that you can't really tell if it's a male or female at this point, but i know sometimes they show early signs.

Well, if you read my post about a month ago i was thinking one of my plants could POSSIBLY be a male, because it was about a week younger and much larger than my other plant, and they are the same strain.

since then, i have been studying them very closely to see what other signs could be, and if they both turn out female i guess these are just different characteristics. THAT being said, i have noticed that (first pic) where the stem branches off the main stem, there is a little weird bubble looking thing. has anyone seen these before? if you look closely you can see it. compare it to the second picture, which is my larger, younger plant, and it doesn't have anything but that stem.


Any ideas/thoughts?

oh yeah and they are only about 2 months into vegging,

IS IT TOPPED OR LST'D? i had a one of those on my plant too, was a female, BUT its some form of stress i believe

no not at all, if it was from stress it would most definitley be on the larger plant i think, that one has been topped and now is bent becausse it was growing so large, and i figured i'd experiment with these techniques because i just have that weird feeling it probaly is a male,

anyyyy other ideas? i guess it was a dumb question ha
