Killab1405started grow question 4 years ago
Is this a swollen callyx or do I have a hermie. This girl is in a tent by herself. Im not pulling her. She has no bananas and I've had similar growth like this on other plants that didn't hermie. Please honest answers. I put a lot into this grow.

Yes, definitely a male flower and not a swollen female calyx.
And while we are being honest, 3 pictures taken from long distance does not help answering this question.
At least you had one picture that was useful, but three similar pictures as to the first one, would have been far more helpful. Seeing the issue close up is vital and posting pictures of an entire plant from a vast distance does not help anyone, least you, if you are wanting effective answers.
This seems to be a common occurrence with question askers - asking "is my plant ok? then posting pictures taken from 6 feet away and is a constant source of frustration for those trying to offer help, as no details can be seen.
You do however get 10 bonus points for taking the pictures in "normal" light!
I would also suggest sweeping your tent, all that trash on the floor is good for insects and/or mould and fungus to get going.
What you do now with this plant is up to you, either get rid of it or try and pick all the male flowers off, but even one missed flower will release enough pollen to fertilize hundreds of calyxes, so you will have to be super vigilant.
Hope this helps,........

there is nothing to do with honesty.if I have an idea,I help people,if not,I leave it.This is a male sack produced by a hermaphrodite plant,without a single doubt.All of us put a lot into our grows but things like that happen sometimes.fucking seedbanks sent regular seeds instead of my feminized orders,which then turned out to be males,I threw them away.But those things helped observe my plants more than feminized seeds. this is a male sack. apart from its shape and where it is located, YOU CAN'T HAVE CALLYXES THIS SWOLLEN when there is no flowers on the plant.A swollen callyx will have a pistil coming from inside,this one doesn't have.Also looks like there are more sacks on the way I can tell by looking at the photo. You see pistils first, callyxes come slowly and swollen callyxes are visible later in flowering,not at this stage.Sorry,bad news,but this is a hermie plant.It's up to you to toss it or keep it but this is a problematic hermie so you won't be able to remove all sacks.It'll pollinate anyway.

18 weeks, but I'm not sure she's ready.The plant is 18wks old. Leaves are getting yellow, some buds are so fat the branches bend under the weight.
I'm worried some pistons are still white and I can still see some clear trichoms, but she's 3 weeks after the recommended date of harvesting.
Do you think she's ready?Week 18
