WHats up gc?as I inspected my plants today I found what appears to be another Hermie plant in my grow. Am I correct? I hope not I'll be down to two plants if that's the case. Please help me out so I can either get rid of the plant or let it go. Thanks
[quote name='"goodielastman"']I think it's a female mate is it in flower?[/quote] Yeah they are in flower. I already had one Hermie so maybe I'm just gun shy. I thought I saw balls forming but I might be wrong. My babies are about two weeks into flowering and all threw pistols but I had one Hermie on me this week. From what I've read fem'd seeds are more prone to hermaphrodite than other seeds.
wow good info that sucks you pay more for a better chance of hermies?? damn. what does feminized mean anyway? what makes it higher chance of female

For what I understand light stress, and neglect can cause a Hermie, but some plants are just destine to do it.
well i googled it and this is what i believe is the correct info. fem. seeds have a stronger female gene than male gene and thats why they are called fem. seeds that the only reason(plus a possible marketing scam too) BUT they also have a higher hermie gene than reg. seeds (guess that kinda sucks) thats what some people from google said at least

This is time consuming in the first place though

[quote name='"thewking"']well its either a new leaf or a pollen (nut) sack[/quote] I thought it looked like a pollen sack too but so did this. In thinking about waiting a few day just to be certain before getting it out if the tent.
Hang on people aren't they just female pre flowers. If their were more in the same place then I'd agree
[quote name='"Saratogatoker"']6weeks[/quote] From seed pre flowers develop six to eight weeks from germination so I'd say that's what they are
Preflowers can be male or female. I see both male and female preflowers in the pics, and considering its the same plant, that makes it a hermie.
