hermie? why

I took my first 6 clones off of my new mother about 4 weeks ago and they are at the beginning of the third week and my girls are forming some serious flowers but it seems as though there may be some male parts extruding at the base of my pre flowers pistils at the branch/stalk junction. I thought that male flowers formed faster so is this possible to be a hermie although I took the clones from a female?
some one help me

Hermie is usually caused by over stress, and can happen to pretty much any plant so far as I know.
Are you sure it's not just a calyx that hasn't formed pistils yet?
I have several on the lower nodes of my current grow that have been really slow developing pistils but a close look with a magnifying glass does show them to be female parts... just slow developing.

I surely hope that is the case because they havent had a bit of stress. I took all those stress factors out in the last few grows. lol. such as heat light leaks, nutrient mix. there are no noticeable pollen sacks from the third or fourth node up and the top colas are forming without any male parts, just hate to have this happen after all the other stuff that ive cured in the past 6 mos. Thanks for the input any other related info would be great,
