Here's a few of my own pictures showing 2 pre-flower and 1 picture of a male with pollen sacks.
Having thrown a female out thinking it was a boy, it's advisable to leave a 'maybe' plant until you really can identify sex by these pictures.
I also advise on checking plants daily if not twice daily when new to sexing, as a pollen sack can mature at great speed and ruin your female flowers.
The first two pictures are female preflowers with the third picture being pollen sacks on a male. This segregated male had 3 days left in it before letting its pollen go, but it quite easily could have been within 24hrs or less and in a flower room. So check them as often as possible and as soon into lights on and as late towards lights off as possible.
*Burnsy Tip* I have my oscilating fan on a timer which fires up 30 minutes after lights on. This way, if I were to have a bionic male that opened it's sacks during lights out, the fan wouldn't have spread pollen all around the flower room before getting to the male at lights on. I also have the fan timed to switch off at lights out, that way I can rest easy. ;)
Good luck people.
