Preflowers outside...A few questions

[420somewhere]

I have a crop of 11 plants outside at the moment. 3 of the 11 are almost 2 months old while the other 8 are all just about a month old.

One the three plants I think I am seeing some preflowers. Right where they should be, on the most mature parts of the plants. They all three have interchanging nodes, they're about a foot and a half to two feet tall. ANd you have to keep in mind I've topped all of them, including one had to be topped twice because it was growing so tall ... That one is definitely a sativa dominant plant and is probably a male too because it's getting so tall.

So first of all, is it really preflowers that I am seeing? My mom who's only 51 and wears glasses couldn't see them that well but with my keen eye sight I see them. They are small. There is multiple on each plant. I saw definite nuts I think on my only indica dominant plant The other two Im not sure? They look like calyxes with no pistils. I keep looking every few hours like maybe the pistils are going to pop out???! That's why I'm trying to figure it out on here! Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Do female preflowers have calyxes or am I staring at 3 freekin males?

anyone...?? and I should have said do female preflowers have pistils all the time, and do they always show right away?

If you see no like white hairs then its not a female. Males will have something similare to sack with pollen and if thoes brake open they can turn your female plants in to a male. Im no pro wait for more people to help

maybee their of both sexes (bad) called a hermaphadite, they cross pollenate them selfes

you should just wait it took my plant 2 weeks after preflowers to finally show its white hairs

haha I was dieing for someone to say it happened to them just to know I might still have a little hope for my 3 best plants! Except for my only real Indica dominant plant, I think it's a he and he had nuts. The other two didnt have nuts like the Indica but what looked like calyxes but with no white hairs :/

I'm just going to give them some more time before I off them for having balls...

don't listen to this guy, as long as there is one ball like growth that comes to a narrow pointed tip, you are fine. Females don't always immediately pop out their hairs, it takes time. And as for him saying pollen will turn female plants into a male, thats rediculous.
