question is basicly the title.
on the bottom of the plant today a pollen sac opened, which I thought was fem. pre flower, so now the question is, are these sacs pollen sacs? which grow pistils?

None of your pictures show any male flowers at all.........no "pollen sacks" as you call them, those things are female pre flower calyxes, not male flowers.
Male flowers look like footballs and grow at the end of a little stem.
If you are keen, go to week 7 in my diary "cannabis conundrums" and there are pictures of both male and female preflowers as well as some hermie flowers and these pictures might help you to identify what is going on with your plants in the future.
At this stage, you have nothing to be worried about..........no maleness in any of your pictures.

Looks all female to me.
Google "male vs female cannabis flowers" to see a difference.
Swollen calyx are normal on female plants, they have hairs or pistils and trichomes on them. Male parts do not get the trichomes or frost on them and hang off a mini little branch, and they are pod shaped like a cocoa pod or football vs teardrop shaped.
