is this new growth or has my girl turned on me....

Someone please give me an idea as to what this is. She is 3 weeks into flower definitely has female flowers. They just showed up the last two days not all over but in spots. Only have 2 left and fearfull she/he may ruin everything.

looks like male gonads. was it a regular or feminized seed?

Thanks for the reply. No offense bmeat but I had rather have someone else's opinion.

From what I can see... those do look like male flowers and that they are bunched up... does not help that case (first pic).... Do you have any of this: http://www.dutchmaster.com.au/?language=english&page=product&product=REVERSE
I have read good things with it (though I do not remember if it was rampant or sporadic male flowers). I have it on hand myself, but have not used it at all. By all means get a second opinion though.

very well, but its a herman for sure. i have gone through two male cannabis plants before, so i know what they look like.

was it a regular or feminized seed? just curious.

Looks like I'm a little late for that. If she has hermied what kind of damage will she do to my other girl who is doing so well. I've got a long topic showing these two from seed and just can't figure out what would have stressed her to cause this. Also, should I let it flower on out, probably 5 more weeks or remove her and hope her clones don't hermie or let it play out?

If she hermied, then he/she can pollinate any plant in the room. And my guess is that if she is prone to stress, she might not make a good mother for clones either. They might be female, but they might inherit that easy-stress trait.

If you can grow it out away from the girl, then you might still get some good smoke. Given that you are on top of a lot of the flowers and plucking them before they open. You might try the product I mentioned above.. you also have to purchase the saturating compound that it requests in the instructions on the bottle. Cheechako is correct about the 'hermie trait' though it is only a gene that is turned on that will produce the hormone that will create the male pollen. So bmeat it is not from a 'male' gene turned (since they never turn 100% male) on but a gene expressed more, that will easily produce the hormone (what ever chemical causing it that is... ) I had two bag seed and both flowered female... until 3 weeks into flower one turned hermie on me and it was due to the same stress I applied to the other girl who only 'late stage' hermied on me. I did not have the dutch reverse spray though so could not try that then. Sorry for the herm.

haha too funny

i was following s3lectives PC grow thread and he pulled off the sacs. Maybe you can do the same?

My hermies are getting old, 39 days now. Anybody ever seen a bud that looks like this. There are only a couple that look this way. Is this some type of mutant??

That is no mutant. It has something to do with the nutrients. It's been a while since I have seen that so I can't give you a straight answer right now

She will impregnate her - the male flowers pollinate the female flowers.

They are wild looking. The green growth below the hairs look like grass canoes and what looks like clear small drops inside its canoe shape. They are also packed thick and hard as a rock. Interestingly not that many trichs on these buds. Really wild looking.

She already has. I'm gonna have a bunch of seeds, decided to let it play out. Got a few clones getting ready now fory next try.

That pic looks like a poly-something bud (can't remember the name) but it's genetic. Looks cool though!

FYI I once had a stress hermie a few weeks into flower and used Reverse pretty successfully. The male flowers never came back but ended up with a dozen seeds and lots of immature ones.

my thoughts exactly. the male flowers are still forming. pull them off before they open.
