Do I have to wear a seatbelt? I hate those things.
There are so many brainy fuckers here, we're gonna need a bus.

Hi BigBud I've found this swollen calyx that looks like it pollenated itself so i think you're right that it's a hermie. I think i'll give it a week or so then i'll chop her and make bubble bag hash as there's little else left to wait for. I've got some sesni seeds X-haze to start and if the quality is like their White Diesel sees then i'm wasting my time not starting these babies. Potential grow diary maybe?

What a bummer.
One last thing and I'll leave it alone... cut off the calyx and do some forensics. If you find a premature seed youll know. You have nothing to lose at this point. Even bubble hash is asking a lot from this plant. The buds are way to thin for 7 weeks of flower, but there can be reasons for that.
Anyway, I'm sure you guys are probably right, I'm just playing devils advocate. Good luck

Those look more like pollen packs than a calyx anyway. Can't tell the color

Honestly you know you had to try something.so you learned alot.I'm a firm believer that you learn alot more when these crazy things happen.I'm also a believer that once you start your plants you put them on a scheduling.so the plant gets used to being fed at a certain interval and nutes at a certain time and level.and so on.so when you THINK you have a male you yank it/kill it.ain't worth much unless your wanting seeds.that's another story I don't even have down 100% the process.I'm looking at every popped bean as they are individuals.not a group of the same.usually they grow and adapt to your conditions you've set up(grow room).but I've read/watched alot and the hermies happen but sometimes I've seen what I thought was the plant went nuts because something totally unexpected happened.i,e 2 day +power failure,feeding a crazy amount of something by mistake,crazy time/light change mid grow,etc..but your total environments change changed everything and made the plant try anything it could to survive and they'll produce similar to a sick person.only the plants "immune"1st stem sig cks so it throws whatever it can internally at it.now I've seen some bad ass plants that have gone thru adversity young in veg and think that made them more vigorous/healthy.totally different stress that yours but affected to sicness and revitalized.they were strong /resistant to alot of petty stress.so I would watch it for a week or 2 just to see what happens.remember to pay attention and your on a learning mission hoping to get a yeild.good luck bro and keep on learning.also look into plant sex test kits.you can get home kits too.never tried home kits but my process is 100%accurate and you can test seedlings around2 weeks old so your not putting all that time and love and money into males.so nice.ohh yeah,i"d get that ? into it's own separate area far from your ladies.ttyl bro.good growing.

I have run royal cheese from royal queen seeds it was hilarious. I can’t believe how many people think that uk people know about the queen, I don’t know shit about her apart from how she paints her property’s cream with black windows and doors and that she has just been caught stashing her money in tax havens, we shouldn’t talk of her she’s the biggest gangster bitch on earth lol

I got my rig running. Waiting for some seeds to germinate, Lemon Skunk... it's not going well. That' how it happens sometimes I guess. Running a strong peroxide mix in the system right now to beat up on anything that moved in since I cleaned it.
I've added an LEC, which will get some use in flower. There's gonna be a ton of light, probably too much... we'll see.

You need to germ/pop them seeds the bag way.you need heat pad.also a seed starter to get little girls with roots to put into your setup.much easier and quicker I think.anybody else got 2 cents on that?

Repotting cause stress can’t avoid it but you can make it easier by doing it gently I think, don’t worry about couple yellow leaves unless it’s light bleaching then you gotta just raise lights
Honestly I been on this forum looking for this sort of comment! love all that talk bro every bit of it. It’s made me want to rant on and I took the time to read your whole long comment and I hope at least one person reads mine like I read yours and I enjoyed your talk. One thing it made me think of was one of my own lessons I have learnt from strain hunting through seeds compared to using locally available cuttings.
So far personally I have found that mass produced cuttings sold year after year of the same genetics are so tough and resilient so i start to question is it the genetics or over time has this plant adapted and become more resilient. Obviously a strain hunter would search for that toughness in there pick of the litter and maybe that’s why they are so strong but for me having all different flavours around a little weak plant here and there that needs an extra bit of care that produces something special is not really too much agg to deal with Evan with basic growing knowledge (I’m referring to variations in nutritional demands of different plants feed them all the same and one strain is yellowing and another is dark green the sort of dark green you see that if you continue nute burn is your next problem). Basically we can read all this info we get on the net all we want like I have for a couple years until suddenly I said to myself I have been reading things on the net and on forums and then acting on it without sitting back and reading my plants! Don’t think I’m some forum hater or whatever there’s plenty of good info on forums but I kept reading and suddenly I had changed soils each time changed doses at times after reading forum comments and all sorts of crazy shit without really studying basic plant science which is available on the web from reputable sources. It was like dropping back down to level 1 especially where you change from local cuttings which are like fucking soldiers don’t care nute fluctuations ph levels repotting spider mites power failures fucking around showing your pals your plants half way through there sleep red head torches when supposed to be green, I Evan read that it rains outside naturally and thought fuck yeah let’s get keen and blast them every night with a natural rain shower didn’t take no care about humidity temperature nothing never any mold fucking soldier strains. Then you pop a seed for the first time and you gotta be so delicate nothing like a raging exodus cheese cutting ready for any thing any fuck up never seen any bananas nothing from all kinds of stress not intentional, a good grower can bring out the best in the legendary cut that’s not me I would love to try some real exo from an expert grower but exo is resilient all the less, you gotta be so delicate with seeds and patient sometimes especially in beginning but after that it’s not really that complicated until flower if you read your leaves just look at that leaf chart it’s all over the net I used to be lazy and skip it and try seek an easy route by looking on forums now I worship the leaf chart.
Recently went all out and tried many different strains all from seed having a few fem beans along side a group of regular which I planned to try to keep a mother plant of the best phenotype they was critical cream cookies, one plant could be yellow and another could be dark green it was mayhem some stretched up tall bleached by light and others stayed down low causing me to adjust the lights to suit them and move them round when they really need to be left alone to keep there shape from veg getting stressed out all round. I jumped in at the deep end without realising so I kicked my ass in to gear and addressed every girl individually. Another point to all the people out there claiming to be masters of realising male plants seriously I had enough of reading about it, leave your plants to veg long enough you will see the males it’s nothing clever all these keyboard growers making it complicated you can clearly see the balls compared to the nice v shape white sexy pussy hairs of the females it ain’t complicated search google male cannabis pollen images they look similar to my balls just mine are like ten million times as big trust me big tings(not really they are small I empty them daily to try pollinate a cheese female plant to make the vestkodus! One day I will have glory Jurassic park nature finds a way)any way back to the point maintaining a healthy plant is not that complicated ! Making it perform to its best can be risky and is hard and requires expertise, try to maximise yields with boosters organic or not and you will need to adjust things one way or another. I kept it safe and stayed minimal on nutrients Evan when I saw some plants yellowing I was much quicker to flush a plant that was extremely green than worry about a little yellowing here and there low yields are better than nute burnt yields, and that’s what I got clean buds from various strains, I also learnt that my lights don’t need to be so close like the chart says on the net most of the buds in the sweet spot according to that chart by nebula haze I think we’re stressed where the others were thriving down lower.
I know I been ranting on and on but I’m full of beans I joined up a couple of months ago and got mugged off hard by some Aussie thread didn’t come on for ages until I finished this selection process I been attempting. One plant has shown extreme resin production visually is exceptional a very distinctive smell of like biscuits but the taste is not individual enough to get excited about, the effect considering we’re in uk is exceptional and I regard a success. It all came from being forced to read my plants. Some buds were harvested with yellow sugar leaves some with dark green which I was worried about. After a specialist dry if I may say so my self 2weeks at around 50 humidity and ranging from 18 to 20 i have by far exceeded my expectations and that of others around me. But the genetics of that one plant ccc11 is what I was looking for. I was shitting my pants the whole way. To the main question was your mate who taught you growing blue cheese because if not you may have to replan your nutrient schedule to suit your plants but trust me it’s not that complicated keep nutrients lower rather than higher and keep looking at that chart a little yellowing is nothing to worry about I had plants yellowing all through flower before and some nutrient burnt I know which I would rather smoke

I'm new to these forums and a new grower on my first grow this is my current plant, take a look and feel free to tell me how y'all feel about it good or bad 
It's one burn spot on a leaf that's old but it's still growing pertty good.
