Still can't tell sex after 2 weeks of 12/12?

I've had these plant under 12/12 for about 2 weeks and I'm coming to terms with the fact that one is probably a male because there are tiny little balls starting to sprout where the preflowers should be . But before I go destroying the plant, i'd like some second opinions. The only reason i'm skeptical is because when I look realllly close, they just look like new leaves beginning to sprout.

The second plant has shown no signs of preflowers, just more smaller leaves sprouting, but i'll post a pic in case maybe you see something that I don't. The first 3 pics are of the probable male and the third pic is the unknown. Please help me out.

Females usually take longer to show sex. Be patient

How long did you vegg them? It looks to me like they were not in the vegg cycle long enough. However it could be that you just need to give them a little longer.

I vegged them for about 2 months. They are around 2 feet tall. I was afraid I let them veg too long.

Ditto . . . a little peace sign on top. You've got time to wait and be certain.
In my experiences, males would have shown within 10 days, but I'm sure that's a genetic thing and varies.
I'd wait a few more days. I've seem huge, healthy pistils POP out of questionable growth more than once.

make sure there is no light when on 12/12 it slows down the process.

Im pretty sure you actually have ALL females. I see pistil's on the first one fore sure and the rest of the have the female look. Males typically are really distinguished with ball's..Be patient though!! Good luck!
