just need some expert eyes for my white diesel girl.
she's been growing fine, standing at around 24", been flowering for 19days and starting to bud up nicely.
then 3 days ago what looked like poll sacs appeared but they then went and sprouted pistils.
now there are a few more and they're lookingmore and more like ballsto me.
can any1 clarify for me? cuz i don't want my other 4 to get preggers lol
thanking u!

let it grow a lil more for sure....but im pretty sure that your first pic has a testicle in it...not all bad tho. if you only have one, just keep growin it and smoke it later or hash it up.

er your post contradicts itself, gangjababy.... can you show with circles where you see the balls?

a calyx is not a pollen pod, it becomes a seed pod should the plant get pollenated... which means it is female.

thanks guys.im not sure myself whether she's sprouting nuts or if they're just swollen calyx.like i said, the others sprouted pistils so maybe im just panicking lmao.ive posted the same pix on my journal and the general consensus seems to be "wait a bit cuz it may not be a hermie".
just not seen a hermie with my own eyes before so it's kinda wierd. will keep u all posted tho just incase lol.
Poutineeh dude...lmao...u ain't wrong there!!! lol

procrastination isnt always bad ;)

if they are pollen sacks they will turn yellow usually... also, they seem to grow in pairs together.

Buddy, I understand how pollination works. The plant is displaying both sex organs, hence a hermie.

the ball I see is on the left side, right on the internode underneath the pistil and the branch. I tried to highlight it in paint but can't seem to post it back here.

The bottom one looks like a ball to me, usually they are in bunches in a true male but since this is a hermie they aren't as prominent.

I'm sorry to hear that and yes they are pollen sack. After a while you learn to spot 'em. Also calyxes have more of a teardrop shape. That more oval.

Best of luck dude.Mine were 3 weeks off being ready to pick and the f%ckers turned into hermies.I had 4 plants to start with.2 turned male so they got the chop then the other 2 went and I was so close.I managed to salvage some decent smoke but my hart was broken.As soon as I get a good female I'm gunna clone,clone,clone.
Sorry about the winge.
Good luck
Purp's:twisted:
