hehe, let's see, bigbudballs (appropo name, indeed, for such a post), whether future posters take the kindly subtle hitn that cheetah politely yet in fine spirit tried to make earlier ... perhaps the actual term "pistols" (sic.), the speling most folks who are not botanists or farmers of a sort see written most, though of course, is confusing folks with connotations of the extrmemely phallic sidearm. At any rate, I think it's in order at this juncture to clarify with a brief and more general commentary on the differences that fuct should be looking for, as an uninformed examination might result in premature judgements and rash actions resulting in the unfortunate consequence of, alas, another pulled female, or sometimes just as bad, a lot of pregnant little flowers. The pistils, as bbb pointed out, are a pair of stigma, the characteristic female hairs on the female marijuana plant. these protrude from the calyx (or perhaps a bracht as some would argue)... The male flower has produces stames with anthers which produce pollen, not calyces or stigma, like the females. If a little four-pronged sort of flower shape starts to bloom outward from the bottom of the female calyx with the pistil protruding from it (that is, again, a pair of stigma, or hairs), then it is presenting maleness and you should get it out of your growroom A.S.A.F.P. Good luck and prosperous crops.
