This plant is really weird, showed male preflowers at the internodes (no calyxs at all) then all of a sudden threw pistils out of the tops (still no internode calyxs)

i cut near the bottom of stem i want to cut thats mainly asthetics though lol. but i cut on a 45 degree angle with clean scissors use isopropyl alchohol to clean scissors. this will help prevent infection.

Wash your hands really well and pinch them off with your thumb nail as close to the stalk as possible. Pinching them closes the capillaries and reduces moisture loss and therefore stress. Two things. Make sure you are between week 3&5 of flower only if doing any heavy pruning. Otherwise a couple leaves a day per plant are no big deal. Alcohol cleaned scissors are good when you can't pinch it.

Are you sure? It could be a hermie. Keep a close eye on it when you flip.

It definitely must be a hermie, yes I’m sure I actually removed a good amount of pollen sacs a few days ago when I realized it starting throwing pistils and I wanted to reduce the chances of a lot of pollination. Was just gonna give up on the plant when I saw male but now I’m just gonna see what happens, since it’s my first grow and I want some bud :weed:
