Help with sex please. Dreading the answer...

Hey. This is my first grow in quite some time and I’m looking for help with sexing this plant.

I think these are balls but not 100% sure. When I look online at pics I normally see multiple pollen sacs not just 1 on each side. I also read that I should wait and see if pistols come out and that it could take a few days but I’ve waited almost a week and nothing. I think its a male but I’m just looking for some opinions from the pros. Thanks for your help.

Yes unfortunately that is a male. It is rare ime to see it so clearly. The balls hanging down on stems in photo 2 is the most convincing preflower i have ever seen. Sorry about that.

Exactly this.

It's so well defined you can see where the flower will split open. When it does it'll dump pollen everywhere.

Damn. That’s what I thought but was hoping I was wrong. He was by far my biggest plant. That leave 4 more, hopefully at least 1 is a girl. Thanks for your ur help guys.

The upside is males show sex earliest so your chances are good
