New growth or Male?

Kinda looking for some input on this. Have been in flower for a week tomorrow, and I have noticed the the following growth at the nodes. Throughout the plant there is growth at the nodes.WP_20160621_005.jpg WP_20160621_006.jpg

Are these male pre-flowers or the start of new growth?

KryptoBud, yes they are all of the same plant. The first picture was to show new growth at the nodes throughout the plant. A little history, a week before moving to flower the plant was completely defoliated of fan leaves, except for one or two fan leaves. What you are seeing in picture two is a overall picture, two weeks after defoliation and a week into flower. The final pictures are as close as my camera would focus without going blurry. So far those spots are starting to look like shoots, but they are appearing at the nodes where the calyx's/staminate's are suppose to be. I haven't seen anything that resembles either balls or calyxs yet. The other lady I have going is a mutant (3 shoots per node vs this one which is 2 shoots per node).

Jimdamick, I am hoping so because she/he is a strong looking plant.

The mutant doesn't have as thick of a main stalk, but she has had to feed 3 shoots per node. Other than the extra shoot and thinner stalk they look identical in size, height, and overall characteristics.

Both are under x16 45w CFL's (x5 are 6200k, and x11 are 2700k) and the lights are 2-3" from the top of the plants.

It won't hurt to let it go a little longer to make 100% certain of sex.

Thanks for all the replies. He will be coming down tonight. Wish I had somewhere to put him to harvest some of his pollen. Very healthy and strong looking genetics.

I'll try to snap a few pics of him before he gets the axe and post them.

be sure to bury it deep, or burn it to ashes, or dump it a mile away from your gals
