Anyone have a picture of this?

I've been googling for quite a while and can't find a thread or picture that shows what I'm looking for, so I've come to ask here.

Do you have a picture of a plant in week 3-5 that JUST started to produce seeds?

I have a plant that I THINK may have went full on hermi but need to see pictures of the transformation from female to producing seeds to confirm.

So the best picture would be a week after it hermed or a week or two, so I know what to look for.

Yes I know I should look for ball sacks and bannas and I have but can't find any, but my plants are flowering faster than normal and looks to be packing on weight way too early, which makes me think hermi growing seeds out of buds.

There are true hermies, and females with male tendencies (1/2 hermie)

Look at the sexual organs at the nodes are they some just fem and a few balls sacks here and there? Or do you have definitive dual sex at each node. Also if looking at the floral set and you see bannanas (stamen) then that is a stressed female ensuring a future offspring. Not a true hermi and these stamen can be removed, and with daily diligence, one can almost eliminate the few seeds that will develop. But honestly what is so bad about a few seeds?

A true hermie will have both male flowers with stamen and female pistil with calyx ovule. And sexual representation will be expressed at the 4-5th node off the meristem.

Not sure but my hairs on 2 out of 6 plants are receding a ton faster and have calyxs that are swelling already at week 3 flower the rest of the plants are just extremely hairy.

I've also noticed 1 or 2 orange hair on the plant spread out not on one node or section.

No ball sacks or bananas yet though.

One is Sage N Sour another is Green Crack.

If you touch them to much the hairs will do this. It would be better if you could post a pic of what your are seeing maybe we can help a bit more. The pollen doesn't have to come from your grow room it could of been on your clothes or someone else's body. Pets.

Yes the hairs will darken if you fondle them, tho they will not recede and the calyx will not swell.

if you shock em with a feed sometimes the hairs die out and come back
humidity and temp might do it too hard to tell brother
find a phat calyx and pluck it off and inspect it
also you should be able to see the seeds pretty quickly if it is pollinated

are they clones or seed grown? sometimes a female that has been around for years will self, and offspring will be "clone" but in seed form. S1 is what they are called.

tear off a calyx with a tweezers and dissect it to confirm.

What would I be looking for in the calyx?

I can't do pictures right now but when I can if my problem still isn't solved I'll be sure to update with some pictures.

For a few days the humidity went from 25-35% to 59-85% because of hard rain for a few days.
When the humidity went back down one of my plants did not like the change and her leaves at the top softened a lot and are withering but not dead.

Aside from that the heat has been the same it has been since veg and never had a issue, all the plants seem healthy besides this issue. I took all the plants out and inspected them but didn't find a banana or ballsack, it could have popped already? But only at 3 weeks starting tomorrow?

Not sure.

You would be looking for a green pea like ball. Don't quote me but that's what I would look for!

Plants that produce seed slow down in producing buds once there impregnated. Look under the plant as if your laying under it and look for hermi flowers on the very bottom branches where they meet the main stock, the preflower area. They wont be balls if they opened more like upside down flower petals. If she is producing seeds the white hairs will have turned completely red from tip to bud, if there only red on tips that is from something touching them.

Good information, been a bit paranoid lately so could just be in my head so heres hoping for the best.

I never had a hermi believe it or not, and I've been growing quite a long time.

I have however had feminized seeds that turned out to be 100% male.

All different strains so maybe these 2 are fast bloomers, I know my Sharksbreath looks like a fucking yeti, very very thick stem, very very thick bud structure, its going to be one of those plants that has a MASSIVE main cola, like the size of someones head.
