exactly whay he said those are calyx's, i live in ny also my plants were showing sex in mid july but normally in this area rite around now is when they show, diff strains vary, nice to hear about the fellow ny growers,Not all the time, but most of the time males shoot up real fast and stay real lanky looking. Your plant has a very distinct calex with pistols protruding. Nice full healthy plant from what I can see!
