male or.female

Males bruh. i see no pistols and the first 3 pics all have clusters i can see that through the blurriness. 2nd to last pic has something I can't make out but it's the same plant then it's male.

IMG_0527.JPG Yeah I figured that much, just wanted to some reassurance. need to get them out to clear out room though. So if i see more than one "ball" like a group of 3 it's a male right? Female pistils come out of one "ball" right? I need to get some plants out, they've been vegging for a month under a1000w MH and there is 15 of them in the room now. Needless to say it's got to be thinned down dramatically to get through 8-10 weeks of flowering. Hoping for nine girls, but will be disappointed if i get less than six.

Your first pistils will be little white shoots coming out of a calyx the same general area..the calyx gets fatter later. But yeah, if you see a little group of grapes, it's a male. Little white pistils coming out of a calyx, female.

I'm scared to take one out cause I feel like they are still to small to be sure. Am i being over cautious in your opinion? cause i need the room for the girls to expand some more.

Positive those are males in the pictures. 1,000%. Even in the blur you can clearly see multiple little balls. Once you've seen the difference you'll know. I would move them out asap... If they open they will pollinate your females.

Earliest female pic I could find...sorry it's blurry too but, you can see no groups of balls. The pistils are more noticeable than any sac. This is probably a week of flower or so.
