Possible Hermie in single grow

the stealth

My baby turned 2 months the other day and was put into flower, and 3 days later I can already see preflowers. The problem is, some nodes have small calyx like preflowers which got my hopes up at first glance, but those were the biggest and most developed preflowers, with no pistils to add. Some other smalllll calyx like flowers abound the plant, but I also see some very very small crab-claw like preflowers, but I know that sometimes it is very hard to tell this early. I know all of you will say just wait another few days but this isn't imperative, because I'm keeping it whether it's hermie or not. Obviously pull if those pistils don't show in the next few days. This was the only seed in some dankkk Apollo 13 and I would expect it to be a product of a banana forming late in flower and pollinating a calyx. But if I'm not mistaken, hermie x female should be female, right? Correct me if I'm wrong. But on the right looks like an early female calyx, but the left looks like a crab claw? Any input is good,

'hermie x female' is like orange x guitar. It's not like there are 3 sexes (male, female, hermie), there are two, which can have flowers of the opposite sex (what we call hermie). Female x female can only be done if one if them grows male flowers (either stress hermie or reversed on purpose) and yes results in female only. Which have more or less the same tendency to herm as their parents.

And yeah, left does look suspicious (the darker green lines). I'd give it a few more day for it to develop and hope for pistils.

thank you for clearing that up, bad information. i love learning new things about the plants because they truly are interesting in how they are so adaptive to their environment. thanks for the help man.
