What are you talking about? Do you mean that blurry calyx in the middle of the picture?

Yes thats what hers refering to lol. No worries bro, its just a swolen calyx, althought it looks likea seed pod, it's just a bud forming. Althought I def. understand how it can be perceived as the start of a seed as it does look like a ball. Rest assured I don't believe it is. A give away (as I can barley make it out due to the blurriness) but see that little red pistil (hair) coming out of the tip, thats pretty much showing its a female flower. It couldn however end up being a seed so keep an eye on it, however I don't believe it is, and unless you've had a very unstable environment, their should be no reason it's turning hermie

That is what I was talking about, and thank you so much. I tried to get a good picture but my camera didn't want to focus on the right spot haha. There is a hair coming out now that I look a little better

Looks like a swollen calyx... ive had that happen to a plant or two, if u break those open theres super tiny seeds, i dunno how they form though. I think just a survival mechanism for the plant. Maybe an expert can weigh in that knows more

all calyx's have little green embryo seeds if u open them up the pistils shoot out of them, If the pistil picks up pollen they will impregnate the embryo and make a seed.

So I was wondering if this has a sign of a hermi. It looks like all my plants have them.

The area you're looking at is pretty blurry since the camera focused on the closer flower, but you can still make out the two browned pistils so no worries.
