    Well on my way to harvest. Is she ok? Are those 2 round areas new bud sites or hermie balls?

  4. 20200501_202737.jpg this is what a hermi will start to look like. Had 2 go full balls out at week 2 of flower. Moved them to isolation and kept them going for now. 20200517_165009.jpg 20200517_165022.jpg here is one of them as of yesterday I was just starting week 5 of flower.

  5. So how do I identify hermie balls and new bud sites. They both looks the same to this rookie.
     
  6. Best way I've found is if you have a decent sized ball, break it open. If there's a seed in there, it's a male or hermie.
     
  7. Hermie generates seeds . Duh.
    So much to learn. Do they sell " marijuana for dummies " book?
     
  8. Thats correct. Depending on when the pollen develops is the key. Pollen sacks past week 6 or 7 arent gonna do shit, getting them at week 2 you might have some seeds.
     
  9. 20200518_112403.jpg this is what I'm seeing from a plant that went hermi at the end of week 2. Been plucking balls off it the past 3 weeks now, but as of today its been about a week since I found one.

  10. Looks very nice.
    So please help me distinguish between hermie balls / pollen sacks and bud sites. Am i being overly cautious?
