Anyone know what this is???

Ok i have a weird growth on top of one of my plants.
At first glance i thought it was a male showing early,seeing as they have only been in 12/12 for 2 days,but when i checked with the magnifying glass it looked more like a weird growth.

Anyway i have no idea what it is and its not something i have seen before so i took some close up as i could get pics.

I checked all of my other plants and this is the only thats got it.
Plant has been isolated from the rest now.
Anyone else seen anything like this or know what it is?

ew... that doesn't look good....


maybe a fungus?
i'm just guessing, i really have no clue!...

i've sent the question and pics on to a few friends who know their shit... i'll let you know what they say!

Init
Looks a bit weird but i don't think its a fungus as i haven't ever even sprayed them once in their life's and with my oil rad in the area and central heating its just to dry really for fungus or mould,i think.?

I am thinking that maybe a fimm has mutated into many mini balls and that its a male or its some kind of insect eggs.
Hopefully whichever they are they will be bigger by tomorrow and easier to identify

Cool thanks for that

it almost looks like bleached out leaves. is it hard? could it be mutated leaf growth or is it just califlower? i've never seen that.

Its resistant but not hard.
I will try to get a better shot if i can

spit bug...?

Heres some slightly better shots.
This is as good as i can get it with this camera and thats with using a magnifying glass as well in front of its lens.

Smoke it

wow, looks like some deformed marijuana flower....thing. DONT SMOKE IT.

Im hoping its a mutant male as its so damn hairy and stinky for a male it would be great to breed from.
I will keep it segregated anyway and post new pics of it every day and see what happens.

Its probably some gimpy insect eggs or something trying to kill my weed.
All though i disagree with needless killing of any creature i have a duty to protect my plants and as they wont listen when i tell and ask them to bugger of to the back garden and munch on some other plant i have to kill them to protect my crops

looks like a polyp...

I take it you mean polyploidy not a polyp?

I think it has cancer....

Or...umm....a cross between marijuana and cauliflower.

Kids might finally enjoy eating their veggies.

I dunno man thats wierd...kinda creeps me out like a disease or something.

Well im hoping its a mass of bannanas in an early stage of polyploidy.
That plant stinks like a female and has immature tric spots everywhere so if its a male and not hermie its the new stud for my females

maybe hes talking about a polyp like this?





Or a polyp like this



honestly I DONT know

I am meaning this kind

Polyploid crops

Polyploid plants tend to be larger and better at flourishing in early succession habitats such as farm fields.[citation needed] In the breeding of crops, the tallest and best thriving plants are selected for. Thus, many crops (and agricultural weeds) may have unintentionally been bred to a higher level of ploidy.
The induction of polyploids is a common technique to overcome the sterility of a hybrid species during plant breeding. For example, OpenDNS is the hybrid of wheat (Triticum turgidum) and rye (Secale cereale). It combines sought-after characteristics of the parents, but the initial hybrids are sterile. After polyploidization, the hybrid becomes fertile and can thus be further propagated to become triticale.
In some situations polyploid crops are preferred because they are sterile. For example many seedless fruit varieties are seedless as a result of polyploidy. Such crops are propagated using asexual techniques such as grafting.
Polyploidy in crop plants is most commonly induced by treating seeds with the chemical colchicine.

[OpenDNS] Examples of Polyploid Crops

• Triploid crops: banana, apple, ginger, watermelon, citrus [8]
• Tetraploid crops: durum or macaroni wheat, maize, cotton, potato, cabbage, leek, tobacco, peanut, kinnow, OpenDNS
• Hexaploid crops: chrysanthemum, bread wheat, triticale, oat
• Octaploid crops: strawberry, dahlia, pansies, sugar cane

Some crops are found in a variety of ploidy. Apples, tulips and lilies are commonly found as both diploid and as triploid. OpenDNS (Hemerocallis) cultivars are available as either diploid or tetraploid. Kinnows can be tetraploid, diploid, or triploid.

natmoon... this is the best response i got

looks like undifferiented growth , im thinking i spelt that wrong but as the plant becomes sexable you have female and male growth of course and sometimes something called undifferiented growth that looks simular to cabbage or lettuce were you normally would find stamans or pistilant growth. They take longer to sex but could come out either male female or both. Dont know what causes it but im assuming enviormental stress of some sort. Theres some paragraphs in jorge`s indoor bible with some hand drawn pictures.

i meant like a cancerous polyp. i have no idea what that could be.
