Need confirmation - girl or boy?

I ordered skittles autoflowers, and I think I may have a male plant. Plant was not flowering like the others so I changed the light cycle and separated the plant from the others I have growing. It looks like a male to me, but I have never had one before, so just looking for confirmation.

I have never had one that far along, but my take is male. I’d let a couple of the experts weigh in before execution.

It has decent clusters (not spectacular) and what looks like an ok cluster/leaf ratio.

Could have some potential but not a must have. Now if he stinks to high heaven, then yea

Selecting males is MUCH harder then females when dabbling in breeding.

I like to look for pollen sac clusters. Their equivalent of calyx. The more sacs imo the better.

Leaf to sac ratio is also important to me. U dont wanna pass on super leafy traits right? Can you can trim jail? Lol

Very rarely you find a male that even produced trichomes. That is my unicorn. Yet to find myself, but if I do? He has a place in my shed to be cloned n rebred as long as he stays alive lol.

Another trait im super high (haha) on is smell. If he’s the funkiest one in the room, his progeny may be the same.

What I dont really care for is the fast flowering. Read it somewhere, the first males to show usually arent the most potent. The logic was sound even if I dont remember exactly why.

As usual take all this with a grain of salt. Im not scientist or researcher. Just things ive pickd up from a few friendly breeders.
