Im no expert, but to me it looks like the calyxes are getting nice and swollen with resin. I don't think that's a hermie. This is my first year growing, so I can't be sure, but one of my plants has very similar looking pouches. You don't have seeds in there do you?

So if they're seeds, you don't have a hermie, you have a female that has been pollinated. I'm not sure the best move at this point. Maybe if you pick now the seed production will stop(don't really know), but on the bright side, those buds look close to finished. Seeds aren't the end of the world, I've had some great homegrown bud that had seeds in it. If you plan on selling it may hurt your market price, but if it is for your own use, who cares, you'll just have to pick a few beans out of your dank. Hopefully someone who knows more about it than me helps you.

I got my microscope at radioshack. It was suggested on this site, and I have a radioshack just down the street from me. The store is very small, but to my suprise they had the microscope that was recomended. It only costs like $13 and works very well. If you have radioshack nearby, they'll prob carry it.

So far yes, maybe it is just because I don't have any amber yet. I can see the trichs great, but I am partially color blind and am worried I can't detect between clear/cloudy/amber. Either my eyes suck, or all of my trichs are still clear after seven weeks of flowering(indica), or both. The one you want is small with a light built into it. It magnifies 60-100x. You'll need one AA battery.

Hermies have banana looking flowers,
Sounds like yours have just been pollinated.
If you dont see any balls or bananas you might as well let them finish flowering, and get some beans out of it in the end.

looks like it is a hermie but thats not the end of the world u can try to keep picking all of the seed pods off but you will never get them all off as for the trichs yea go get a microscope. i am also color blind and my eyes suck and its kinda hard for me to tell if they are done but u should be able to kinda tell if they are amber u will see the difference as for clear and cloudy i cant really tell but ur plants still look great and only 2 were hermies thats good. are they bagseed or did u get them from somewhere?

I just noticed yesterday that a whole bottom branch on my biggest plant is almost completely pregnant. I found some old balls on some of the lower branches but for some reason only one branch got pollinated. There are no seeds in any of my other branches just one bottom one which just happened to be right under the branch I found the balls on. I found like 4 places where balls grew right next to buds, funny thing though the buds right next to the balls weren't pollinated, just the one branch on the bottom. When the weather drys out, or should I say if it drys out, I'll try and get some pics.

not a hermie you just got a strain that has large calyxie budz and if you found a seed or something then you must have otten pollenated by something from a distance and each pot should only have 1 or 2 seeds if it is pollenated bro. but it looks good to me and time to be choped down after a few flushes
