How long in 12/12? If less than about 1 to 1 and a 1/2 weeks...it is very likely a male. Males show much quicker and that looks awfully suspicious. I cannot say with 100% certainty that it is or isn't male. Mostly because this is your grow and you should make the final determination.

That said, I have seen some pretty fat calyx...this is quite questionable though...If it were my plant I might let it go another day or two. I would certainly keep a very keen eye on it though...balls can form and pop very quickly. I would take a look every 6-8 hours and if no visible pistils in that time I would hack it. That is just how I would handle it.

Good Luck and Great Growz

Is it the only plant in your garden? If it's a true hermi it can still produce some good flower, you would just have to get the seeds out after harvest. Of course if it's just a straight male then it's not much use unless you really want the pollen.

I had a plant with these:

and ended up with a bunch of this:

My current grow I had one that I was sure would be a male. Very similar look to yours well she is now three + weeks into budding. Agreed with above do check often as that's exactly what I did until I was certain.

P.S. If you do chop it place a plastic garbage bag over it before chopping it....Completely remove it from the room. And just to be even more cautious and/or paranoid! I would take a shower and make sure I am totally free of cannabis pollen that may transfer back into my garden.

If it's looking different to the other plants and has balls I would be 100% certain it's male BUT you said it sexed last which confuses me so my guess is it's hemi.
