Pretty sure that is a herm. You might be able to pluck it if theres only a few, but you def got to keep an eye on it if you decide to keep growing it.

I figured it was.. damn it was so frosty too! It just went to bed 20 minutes ago so I'll have to pluck those two in the morning and keep a close eye on it over the weekend. If I see any more, I ain't sacrificing the other three in my tent! Thanks!

Yeah, it looked like it was going to be a good one. Is this a clone or from seed? Often times, clones will be less herm prone than seed plants

Seed from ILGM... before I researched about genetics or seed banks. At least I have 3 more to finish so I'll still have a good harvest even I'd I have to pull it. Ethos is on deck though for my next two grows at least!

Sometime I will get 3-4 seeds out of a plant. I never know where they come from but they don't hurt a thing. I wouldn't throw oz's of weed away because of a possible seed.

Definitely not plucking anything yet but I do appreciate the insight! Never had a herm before and I only see the two sites so far. I'll pluck those two sites only in a few minutes as the lights are just about to turn back on! It's my best looking plant so far so too so I'd love to finish it!

It's not all that uncommon for plants to throw nanners as they get later into flower. They don't always even have viable pollen or are even noticed. That's how people will find a few seeds in their weed. Pluck it and keep growing. The hermies you need to be worried about dumping pollen and pollinating everything are those that have actual male pollen sacs that release a ton of pollen when they open. Clusters of nanners like you have often just shrivel up without releasing any pollen and if they do it's not much and may not be viable. Pluck and grow.

Or should I leave them alone?

Interesting. From the other pictures it looked like it could have been a cluster of nanners. From that photo it doesn't look like it. I've had growth like that on plants in the past. What are the temps in your tent during lights on?

Average air temp is about 75f. It runs a bit lower at night, 65f at the lowest and no hotter than 82f in the day though. The sensor sits just to the right of that growth by about a foot and is 6" higher so I'd imagine it's pretty spot on.
