Yeah, once it shows it's true colors you'll see how 'male' it is. You can at least practice pruning/topping on it. Like I said, never seen a herm from seed before, it's usually a result of stress and the plant in its waning days will do anything to reproduce. The one herm I did see, had only 2 bananas and was the result of light leaks.

You got any access to clones?

HERMIE! lol
which arent that rare, fem seeds would turn hermie if stressed. i baked 4 wee pots in the first week 2 lived 2 died,
one of them grew into a shitty plant the other looked the biz till it turned hermie, it was at week 4-5 of flowering tho

Thanks for your input bro, mine got pretty baked too so this could be the reason she's turning, that said...

I'm still unsure, i think this suspected ball is going girly:confused:

Just an update/bump as this plant is still frustrating the hell outta me. I'll get more pics later but there isn't a great deal of change in the area i'm worried about. The query calyx/balls are only on one node of the main stem, the rest of the plant's potential budding sites all have female hairs. They have got no bigger really, they're not quite pear shaped and not really ball shaped either. Maybe it's too early still, it looks a little like some of the pics i've seen on micro sexing threads, male and female ones!

Can a female calyx go or be dormant maybe?:confused:

I was going to post this yesterday, but instead i devoted my online time to researching pics, threads, faq's, as i see a lot of unnecessary questions about sex, but i can't find anything that similar to what's going on with my potential dudette!

I've said it before, i'm not desperate for this plant, it's just a bit of personal smoke in my campaign to 'ditch the dealer', so the moment i'm even semi convinced this plant is hermie it will be removed. That said, it's a beaut of a plant and it would be a damn shame to make a fatal mistake and kill a girlie!:evil:

The two odd growths are on both sides of only one node, on one plant.

ok, i'm getting willing to come around to that way of thinkin now 2. but roughly how long have i got? will banana type growths come out of these before it bursts pollen all over the place? they're growing pretty damn slow(the growth not plant) at the moment. and is that not a hair coming out in pic 1 & 2?

So here's some pics of how they looked today, before surgery!

This one seems to have sprouted hairs, but also looked like it had a nut
