Please help identify this pre-flower

[THCosmic]

About 4 days ago I started to monitor a pre-flower on a plant already identified as female. The node in question has twin pistils on the nodes above and below it.

Day 2:

Day 3:

It’s still a bit early to tell, nothing absolute yet, but if I had to hazard a guess, I’d lean male. You should know for sure within a week.

I was thinking the same thing.

The rest of the plant has all female nodes so far. This is the only node I noticed that started to look like it was male. If it is a male pre-flower, and I don't see any other similar nodes (or only a few), I will just pluck it and hope for the best.

Is it also possible this is a mutation and it started to grow a 2nd branch at that fan leaf? This specific plant actually did that in another location on its own.

Edit: Added image.

This plant basically topped itself from start and the first node on the left main stem grew 2 branches on one fan leaf and 1 branch on the other fan leaf. 2 of the 3 were pruned already.

Day 7:

Has been slowly opening.

This is the top of the branch that pre-flower is forming on. Nodes above and below also have pistils.

Day 11 of monitoring the development of this pre-flower. Pistils have emerged. What originally looked female, then definitely started to look male, now returns back to looking female.

I was fixing to say that looks more like a tiny node growing rather than a nanner or sack

Quick update on this pre-flower. This is what it looks like now:

That's a male flower that just spot pollen everywhere

You sure? Looks like new growth to me. I see the fan leaves.

To me it looks like a male flower may wanna get some more input tho

Image at much higher magnification:

I'm just seeing pistils and trichomes.

Now it looks like a female preflower

Let it rideee

Now it looks like a female preflower

It has been a very confusing one from the start, haha. I think it ended up being a mutation of a 2nd branch growing out from the same node. It just grew so slow and happened during the time of sex identification.

Here you can better see the branch directly above it. The fan leaf at this node was cut a while ago.

That's just some kinda weird ass preflower growth
