wait time for male flowering

So I started with 10 seeds. 8 of them germinated. vegged them for about 5 weeks under 4x40watt flouro tubes(kept them real close) Then 12/12 for 10 days and found 4 confirmed females, and 3 confirmed males(this leaves one that isn't showing either flowers or pistils). It is now day 13 of flowering and still no sign of sex from this rogue plant. dont want to toss it in case it's a girl, but don't want it to mess up my girls if it's a boy.
This particular plant has looked like a different strain the entire time(leaves are darker green than the others) even though all seeds were from the same bag.

So the question is,....If this is in fact a male plant...even though I can't see any flowers on it, is there a possibility than it will pollenate my girls without me noticing. and how long after they flower do they release pollen?

My experience with males indoors goes like this.........gently remove even if yer suspicious.

Once those balls appear....danger lurks!
