Female Preflowers?

Hey do female preflowers also come out of these bulging sections of stem or is that only on males?

im about to be at that stage in flowering and from all ive read that just becomes balls and those are no good. however it might not be all bad. if your stems arent all showing bulges like that it might be a he/she and may be salvagable if you take the time to trim and all that keep us posted.

k thanks for the info, btw the pic is not from my plant, but lots of them do have that bulging ;*(

sounds like a dude man. i hate to break that terrible news to you. but you are going to most likely put him down.

Females have preflowers to that show their two white hairs
