Is my auto going hermie?

Two royal gorilla auto’s...5 weeks today. First grow and I started off wrong, didn’t have my pH meter yet so just added a small amount of dist. White vinegar to tap water and popped my seeds in peat pellets. I measured the water I used when my Ph meter came in and it was crazy low, like 4.0, so that stressed/stunted them to begin with. One is doing fine, albeit a little small, but has been preflower for almost two weeks now and the other hasn’t shown anything. I didn’t think it was going hermie until just now, noticed something extra coming in. Is that a pollen sack??

Doesn't look Hermie but it's a little early to tell for sure. Looks like calyx growing on a normal female. Watch for balls and nanners.

You've slowed growth by trimming that's why it's pre-flower for 2 weeks. It won't hurt if done correctly but considering you are worried about Hermie stop trimming it for a while at least.

When trimming trim slowly, 4 or 5 leaves at a time. Foliar feed with 1/4 strength nutes and 1/2 strength Superthrive every time you trim.

Trimming slowly in veg will keep the auto in veg longer and give larger yields but it's a razers edge path. Trim to much the plant thinks it's dieing and hermies. Trim slow keep it in veg for 2-3 weeks and I've gotten 17 zips. Trim to aggressively you often get nanners growing out of buds or balls growing on stalks.

Thanks for the help!! I actually saw the auto you posted on someone else’s question the other day. What a monster. Can’t wait to grow one that size. Thanks again
 
No sweat, that was Sour Lowryder topped, LST and trimmed in veg. Lowryder and northern lights have both been leaf heavy and needed trimmed.
When you LST, do they remain tied through flower or you untie? I trained both (only once as they haven’t really gotten Big enough for more) but I let the runt back up several days back, I dunno why...I guess bc I felt like it was really stunted. The one in preflower is still tied down
