They're called nanners as in bananas the fruit they resemble, afaik that's bro science both are male flowers there's no difference between them.

I am very much hoping there is a difference.These nanners have been chemically produced from a stable female plant and the pollen should not contain any male chromosomes,thereby producing feminized seeds theoretically.Also have pollenated a branch with male pollen ,which will offer a mix of seeds.Respectfully.

I think you'll get what you expect but the form or packaging that it's in is a still a male flower.

Yes both can produce pollen.. but.!! Balls are at the nodes and are shaped like BALLS .. bananas ( nanners) grow in Buds mid to late flower and shaped like bananas.. there is a difference.. hermie traits in plants is the same.. balls at nodes bananas in the bud.. normally you wont see both on the same plant though.. my response to you earlier and now wasnt an argument nor to cause one..
My apologise.

I saw that. Looks more like balls than the beginning of nanners. I'd say it's probably a male or a true hermie.

This is a male that hermed ..OR.. more then likely a male dominate herm.. those are balls..

Agreed. Sometimes the nanner pollen is sterile. Just thought I'd add that.

That is correct Sir.. great add..

I use to freak out when I saw a nanner and chop. I'm not as worried anymore. Based on what I've seen, it seems like it's more common for it to be sterile. But I've had nanners pollinate before.

To finish the argument about nanners/sacs, they are the same thing...sacs contain nanners in them.. when they open up that's what you are seeing distribute pollen. What did you guys think was in male sacs? Just powder?
When you see them in buds, the stacking calyx have already peeled the outer layer back leaving the "nanners" visable. If one more person acts like they are different anatomically I'm Gunna...

I get that, but there's a difference. Nanners form inside female buds without growing balls first. Nanners aren't usually as fertile as sacs either.
Lots of strains throw nanners at the end or under stress but don't grow ball sacs.

When they appear in a bud late cycle, The balls sac was always there in the bud, it was just peeled back by the calyx before it aired itself.

Ball sacs have more than one nanner coming out when they pop.

Most nanners will be in clusters of two,three or four poking out of buds (just like most sacs)...either way, it's still a plain old piece of male anatomy, albeit with differing chromosomes.
lol. Welcome to RIU. You'll do well here with a sense of humor.

Hello fellow growers this grandaddy purp is almost nine weeks and just getting ph’d water for the last week. i don’t think these yellow things are nanners but just wanted an opinion…

Looks line nanners in the 3rd pic, bottom bud, try to get a close-up though, sometimes a plant will throw late pistils and the new ones can kind of look like nanners coming out at first.
