Bud or Male parts ?

I need some speedy advice before I mess up tremendously. Is this flowers starting to form into bud or is this the dreaded male plant, that I’ve been wasting valuable time with. Help me please. It is also apart of a test series that I am conducting. I’ve trimmed the top four fan leaves to allow more light to the lower levels.4818E147-1F55-4E34-9252-FF75776B95C3.jpeg5E38961B-4D31-4592-AA62-949EC837A7C2.jpegA03AA85B-96CA-435C-969C-69E69935CA56.jpegCF36F76F-FD60-4508-8A6E-D861E66E9C65.jpegView attachment 4484please help before I yank this plant and keep it moving

Like Spek said. But there is a bannana in the lower right of the middle bud in the first pic.

Good catch, I missed it. Was only taking a cursory look. So if indeed it is more than one plant, then all of them are either hermie or male.
Spent an entire cycle plucking those little bastards from a 12 plant SOG in my younger more ignorant years. Just glad you got him straight. A shame contaminate your crop or the neighbors.

Interesting hermetically, I have grown three types, first is mature flower throwing late banana's, second the one or two early nanners down low below buds, and third, full on Hermes with male parts in each small bud.

your plant has full male flowers developing on lower branches and full female buds on top, did you graft a female to a male?:D

your plant was third variation, full on herme.

It is gone. What would be the signs that other have turn sides ?
The pictures you posted are a perfect look at male traits (the little things that look like sacks) on a plant. You've also got female traits as well (the pistils, ie. the little white hairs).

Your own pictures should be a very good guide for you going forward.

The male "bananas" (as many people call them) often start off as one or two, then often grow into clusters as you see depicted.

There was no grafting or any type of genetic modifications. I grew this one plant from seed to now.
 
In all the plant is only 2 months old. I sexed it as a female early on. For I have had experience with spotting males. But this is something new that I’ve come across.

Luck of the genetics. Light contamination. Stress or just unsettled designer strains. It happens. You are now a better grower as result.

You might want to spray the others down with a good water mist...It will kill any pollen that might be floating around, before it pollinates your others too much...But do it with lights off.
