Hermie or swelling calyxes? (PICS)

So I had this girl flowering under low light since the second week of January, or about 14 weeks to date. It was bagseed, but I think it's either trainwreck/purple trainwreck/purple urkel.

She hasn't received much stress other than being flowered with only 56W of CFLs and no nutes, although the bud the seeds came from could have been a hermie.

The calyxes don't feel hard on the inside, but it does feel like the tops of the buds are drying out or something.





I looked everywhere and couldn't find any bananas, balls, sacks, dongs, or any other male sex organ looking structure.

EDIT: Forgot to mention that I harvested half the plant already. This is the bottom half. Even the top had those weird swelling calyxes, and some were yellowish-gold that felt kinda hard. I also saw these tiny white dots when I broke up some of the dried bud, although I read it could be the ovaries(?) or something.

Bump for an answer, beyond my skills

it doesnt look to be goin hermie IMO.

have u checked the trichs with a scope? 14 weeks it shud b gettn really close. cud be why its feels to be drying out on buds

Nahh no scope or access to one. I only have macros so who knows what color the trichs really are:<. Here's the best trich pics I have to date:

Bump. Someone's gotta know wtf is goin on in those pics lol

They look ready. id pull. looks like heat. but regardless, they look ready.

Thanks. Would heat stress cause the calyxes to appear to have a "shell" when you break up the dry bud? There is nothing in them, and they still have pistil hairs, but they are swelling and getting hard, or something. Also the trichs on the swollen calyxes are getting really amberish/brown.

when the trichromes are a milky color, its time to pull, amber is a little late

heat stress most likely

Ur fine ive seen this in some buds before, especially in a mango cross strain ive been seeing in south fl. Shit looks flame tho, enjoy!

Old post bumped by a n00b. Nothing to see here....

another bump from a noob........does anyone have a pair of pics of a swollen, and not swollen callax or however you spell it? to help us tell the difference for ourselves.
