Female!!.. Or Hermie maybe

First plant, first grow. 1 seed.

Been eyeing it carefully looking for flowers, and I started seeing a couple, then about a dozen. Most of them look the same, little fat balls. Kinda pear shaped. Some look like they're on little posts, some don't.

Most of them almost look like a little head lettuce. Like a ball with a tiny leaf covering it.

Anyway he/she is 2-3 weeks into flowering and I've been inspecting the flowers a couple times a day looking for a sign. Finally got a couple signs!


So my question, when should I know if it's a Hermie or total female? And when do male pods burst..

The first preflowers showed at the bottom of the plant, but the first pistils arrived at the top of the plant at the top node.
Is that irrelevant information...

Hard to see but it looks like a single calyx at the beginning of a node which is very common, male pars look like balls/ bunch of banana's.... do a big of researching on google for male weed plants flowering to be able to tell the difference

Y'all misunderstood.
That one's definitely female. I know that. There's two pistils coming out of the calyx clear as day.

What I'm saying is it's 2.5 weeks into flowering and there's only 2/12+ preflowers showing pistils.

This calyx has the most female shape of all the preflowers.
Some look more inherently male.. I'm just curious how to KNOW if it's a Hermie and how long before I have to worry about it pollenating?
