is this plant a hermie?

I'm working with 6 purple wrecks fems and I'm 1 1/2 weeks into flowering. I notice one of them formed what I thought was a pistol midway on the plant but taking a closer look its looks more like male part. I'm guessing I should chop it, hopefully I'm not too late. I figured I would let a few ppl check this out.IMAG0357.jpg IMAG0356.jpg

Hey, look like pollen sacks to me. U should get rid of it as soon as the sacks appear. U don't wanna risk pollenating the other ladies.

You sure cause higher up on the plant there are hairs coming out but midway there's no hairs coming out of that little pod which looks sorta like a teardrop. I just don't wanna risk it. I have worked with fems before I guess I was just lucky then.

I was not referring that as hairs. the hairs are not on the picture because this is the middle of the plant where the problem is. My question is are these male preflowers? And is there a possibility that it won't produce pollen sacks if it is. I'm so confused on the topic I think i'll chop it to be on the safe side.

I say let it go for awhile,on the other hand feminized seeds plus trainwrecks tendancy to easily hermie spels trouble in the first place

I still haven't got a straight answer on this one. The rest of my crop has pistols coming out in of the middle of the plant but this particular one does not. It just has a little pods 4 in total if you count the nodes below it. Do you think pistols will come out of these? These pods look different then the ones with hairs coming out which made me think they were male preflowers but I guess its too small to tell. I'm torn between killing it or just picking off these little pods if no hairs comes out.
