Hey guys, i need help identifying if i have a hermie.. this plant has been the first to show pistils in my 6 plant closet grow.. today, i woke up and saw what looked like two balls.. its not the clearest of images, but its all i could get with my shitty camera..

please if anyone can help, it was a feminized seed from Attitude.. also, if it is a hermie, what are my options? do i kill it as I have another 6 plants in the same place, as well as, 1 more vegging in the living room?

What's the strain? It's hard to tell from the pic if they are balls or not. Be patient with it...I've seen calyxes I thought for sure were balls, but eventually sprouted hairs.

If they really are balls, you can pluck them (with some tweezers) and just monitor the plant for any more down the line. I've had a plant push out 3 balls on the lower branches early in flower and never seen any after they were removed. The problem is they can begin to develop within the calyxes of another budsite...and if they go undetected and open you'll have a flower room full of seeded plants. Just monitor as carefully as you can, and if it starts shooting out a bunch of them just trash it.

If you are in doght get it out .Don't kill it plant it close to where you can get easy but out of the way.But i would have a good look on you tube because they may just be resin sacks that a female will produce.If there is only 2 then this is what i would say that the plant is.See if white hairs are shooting out if so it could be a female.But the picture stinks.Also if the plants have all been grown togeather then there is a great chance that if it is a hermi that the whole plants or some of them will also be hermis.I'm just in the middle of a grow now that i'm sure that at least two are hermis but the pollon sacks never opened so i cut them back to the stem went around all the plants and did the same.Since doing this none have returned this is very unuseual because if you take one male or hermi pollan sack of 10 will grow in there place.The key is to findind out what sent them hermi i know my reason my en over a bank holiday when it was realy hot.I went out to my local d.i.y centre and bought two extractor fans these did lower the temps but at one point the plants went up into the 90's i hav afeeling that this is what turned them.Because has soon has shops opened i bought the real deal in exaust fans and the temps went down to 25/28.So it is a good idea to make small notes that will perhaps help you in the future.:leaf:tyke........
