I noticed some ball like things on the stalk of one of my c99's. I tried to take a picture, too blurry to post but I think I see a hair too. The tips of the plant look normal, full of hairs and young buds. I will watch them closely.
That is what I suspect too. Whatever it is mine does not resemble a male ball. It does not dangle off of a thin neck, it has no neck and it has a hair. I don't have much experience with hermies though.
Ya the one i threw outside was doing the exact same thing here, she ended up with half a dozen seeds still, which is a hermie.
Yes I'm familiar with the calyxs that form at the node and stem, they are oversized, I had them on all my C99s, they are not rounded and egg shaped, calyx's are tear drop shaped. I bet if I let her grow she wouldn't of produced very seedy bud, but still seeded bud.
A leafless plant? I want one ...just to show what the single calyx's look like, here's a pretty cool example
that is dr. grinspoon taken from the page on the corner, if you're interesting in the genealogy
You saw what you thought were male balls on an young plant, re-planted it outside and ended up with 6 seeds. I understand the need to be safe but if they were hermie balls you should have seen some ball clusters and would have had 100's of seeds. 6 seeds is a gift, most likely it developed a stress banana closer to the end of life.
One of my plants is worrying me too. Mostly along the main stem on one plant I am seeing these single balls. They are very small right now so it is hard for me to tell what is going on. I believe when the plant was younger they showed two thick forked hairs, then they fell off. I will watch them closely. I seem to remember I was keeping an eye on some similar buds?? on my last grow of WW closer to harvest. I then spotted a seed on a lower bud, looked around and found an open banana on a lower popcorn. I plucked it and smeared it on a couple of lower popcorns and ended up with 8 seed. I saved them... not sure if I would use them though.
Yep, that is what I am seeing too, they all look to be around the same place at the forks.
I snapped an arm pretty good and didnt tie it up right like a month before i harvested, i know it did some harm and stressed it out.You saw what you thought were male balls on an young plant, re-planted it outside and ended up with 6 seeds.

I understand though, it doesn't pay to gamble.... Goodbye little plant.. sniff... sniff...
Broke one arm huh.... Check out what I just did! My grow failed. I just scrogged the hell out of 'em. I would be shocked if they didn't hermi... I know I will get something out of this though.... but it will probably just be the experience...
Heheheh! I'll stop by your new grow.
