So those balls near the growth, are just more growth?
Just keep an eye one them as they are 'pre flowers' but as others here have said it is still to early to tell... use an mag and keep a look out for two 'tiny' hairs (they will be tiny at first). I thought my plant was male at this stage as well.. we new growers must be patient (my first lesson growing) :)

...you will see a cluster a balls on a male.
...what your seeing is a calyx. Pistils will appear as 2 white hairs, in a 'v-shape' from the calyx if it's a female. ;)
Males don't show their balls all at once. They will have one ball at first then grow the rest.
 
Don't worry. The first day the balls start showing up it won't be the end of the world for the rest of your plants. You want to get them away from the girls but if you wait a few days you will still be ok. The males still have to take time to produce the pollen. When I started out (from seed) I had a male in my room for a week and a half before a buddy recocnized it and ripped it out for me. The others stayed females.

If you do get worried about the other get some Dutch Master Reverse and spray them down for insurance.

Lol it's just 2 plants in a small PC case. I thank you all for the information!

was just paranoid I guess, although near the newest growth I see 2 balls forming on the same side. That's what worries me. All good though, didn't plan on chucking yet. Just gunna wait til next week to make sure.

Maybe it's cuz I haven't smoked yet today? Maybe when I do, everything will become clearer. ( or cloudy since I'll be smoking :D )

Should have started a couple more seeds. I wasted two whole months growing 2 plants that took forever to show their sex
then they turned out to be male. Had to start all over again with fem seeds which are 3 weeks in today.

Def that just new growth. If it starts as a round sphere but turns into leaves that push out, it's just normal growth. But if it's a little round sphere that doesn't turn into leaves and stays kind of white and flowery looking and amasses in clusters of about four in the crooks of the branches, then you've got a male. Here's what I mean:

Sadly, that's what the top is looking like. I see like 3 small balls on one side next to the new growth. Can't get a good shot of it. Will post when they get bigger

One would think anyone that has ever grown before would be taking note of the tiny growth between the new growth and the stipule.
Not the obvious new branch.

Ok, got a magnifier and checked.

DEFN teardrop shaped. What I thought were bunches was actually the calyxs!
