First time grower - is it a male?

Hi.

This is my first time time growing. I started without any knowledge (had a bag of random seeds I've collected from my buds throughout the years), but managed to geminate 3 seeds nearly 7 weeks ago. Since then I read a lot (you guys are amazing! Been lurking these threads and have learned a lot from you), bought equipments, done some training, and finally flipped them to flowering (today is the 10th day after the flip).

One of my plants is growing like a charm. I can already see the buds forming, and there are some visible white pistils over them. I'm very happy with her.

The other two… They are not growing as fast as the other. They were about half the size of my first girl when I flipped to flowering (they are in the same tent, and I was worried if I waited too long I would run out of space). And I don't know if they are just taking longer to show their sex, or if they're male and I don't know how to identify them. I want to put a scrog net in my tent for the rest of flowering, but I want to make sure I don't have any males before I tie them.

I don't know if it matters much, but I've topped each of my plants once. The girl was topped first, at about 4 weeks after germination (as she was the tallest), while the other two were topped only a couple of days before I flipped them (a few weeks later).

Here are a couple of pics of the two plants I would like to know if they're male (not sure if they're balls, or only pre flowers without any pistols?):

For reference, this is (I think) my girl:

Welcome to 420 @Drakmord :ciao:

A bit too early to say
Male flowers grow out on a little stem with a pod on the end
 
It is female! On the third picture of the top you can clearly see a calyx with two white pistils. You can also see a few more pistils just behind the front calyx. If your prescription isn't strong enough or your monitor is old and has low resolution you may need to zoom in to the node that is on the right side of the main stem under the top.
