Sex pistols or new leaves

Noticed this is evening while tending to the babies and became concerned because I'm finding it hard to believe a non annual under a 24/7 light cycle can produce sex pistons before flowering.. So what do you guys think they it is new leaves or do I have my some females already showing up.

Thats what I thought... Sooo what does this mean if it's not an auto... Are they forcing them selves into flowering... Is that possible??? And their not males I looked they all have what looks like female parts... I have 8 but if they are unto flowering this wil really suck because I don't have proper lighting for flowering yet.... Hopefully they can hold off till Friday

I'm not sure that's a pistil,

and pic 1 could be a male, but it might be a little early,

in a couple days you will have your answers tho, lol

if it is a male, you have plenty of time to chop before pollen spreads.

I didn't know plants could preflower before flower cycle if there non autos.. And they are just now starting to smell too witch also worries me because they shouldn't start to "stink" untill flowering

It is totally normal for plants to have "preflowers" in veg, which is great because that makes it possible to thin out the males before switching to 12/12. The plant in pic 1 definitely looks like a male.

Nah watering about 2-3 days based on room heat the outside is hot as hell lately so needed more water but only water when soil is dry and about 5 oz of water per plant at the base of the stem today I watered with 7 oz of water per plant

Yep, they show pre flowers so you can cull out the males or harvest the pollen. And I water all my plants so 10 to 20% run off comes out so it won't get a salinity build up=nute lockout...good luck
