One of my plants is showing a strange genetic indicator. One node near the top is showing a slight bulb at the base of the normal female hairs. Other nodes are all normal female looking. Plant is four weeks into 12/12 and is 33" tall.

Little background on the genetics of this plant. About six years ago I grew some cotton candy by delicious seeds (feminized). During the consumption of that I found about 30 seeds. I assume that it self pollinated at some point. Since all of these seeds were very well developed I saved them for later. I could not have done a better job if a partial pollination had been my goal.

So I am growing a couple of those now and this is what I have.

I have three other plants going in this room so if this is a male I want to get rid of it ASAP. Thank you all for having a look at this. Sorry for the side ways pictures.

I suspect there is a base of knowledge regarding the viability of hermie produced seeds but I am not familiar with it. Maybe an increased chance for more hermies?

You must not spend much time here. I see you've been a member for 13 years. I'm surprised you don't know it's all good. Just swollen calyxes.

Good question. I learned everything I know about growing either here or at places I discovered here. Have always been a lurker. Have a lot to learn and not that much to offer although I do have some years of experience now. Reason I don't have much confidence in sexing is I always grow feminized seeds and don't pay much attention to it. In my situation I don't have the time or space to waste on a plant that is going to be a male.

The other thing is I have not been able to grow legally until recently so I always tried to keep my head down.
