Please look at these pictures and let me know what you think. They are from a few different angles and one is kind of dark but you should be able to see whats going on. Thanks for your help.:leaf:

Its a clone of a female but I thought I was noticing the forming of some pollen sacks near the pistils. I thought maybe it had or was beginning to hermie. Im probably freaking out over nothing.

I also have similar problem. I'm in day 10 of flowering and few male looking sacks appear on some branches - not all of of them.

I shall post some pictures in couple of hours.
This is my first grow and i really really hope i'm just freaking out and it's not a Hermie

here are the images (this is the main stem).

This is "The Church" (femanized) strain that i bought from the Attitude.
It's grown from seed and had 35 days of Veg time. (under 250w metal halide)
it's 11 days into flowering (under 250w HPS)

I'm confused, is this an hermie? should i wait more?
- I took clones from it when it when it was still in veg mode in order to create a mother plant. will the clones be hermie too?
:wall:
Is hermie a result of stress (light leaks, pruning, nutes, not enough water) or is it genetic (seed)?

I'd appreciate opinions and thoughts.

Mr. Bomb your plants look normal.

Tezelfigu - Bad news bro that looks like a male. Plants can go herm from any of the reasons you listed.

To answer Mr. bomb she looks completely normal the pods that show a plant is a hermie usually show in the bud itself the way to tell if it is a seed or not is to squeeze the pod if a seed comes out your fine if nothing comes out the pod then you have a hermie. Also to answer Tezelfigu that is a male plant that couldnt have been a clone from a female maybe from a male but yea not a hermie that is a complete male sorry dude you better throw it away if you have any females around otherwise get ready for some seedy bud.

his plants were already buddin and if it was a hermie if you squeeze the pod nothing would come out and if it was just a bud with a seed in it which looks like a pod when you squeeze this a seed will come out if you didnt understand that Im sorry no offence look it up.

Ok if he has pollen sacks then pollen would come out and if he had a seed in the bud that would mean that either a male plant let its pollen loose on her or if it was a hermie it could do it its self:leaf:

Thank you guys for the opinions,

I think (and hope) we are all wrong about the "balls".

I noticed that some the "balls" have hairs coming out of them. And some i think just disappeared (maybe opened up).

I'll post more pictures in a day or so.
Meanwhile i found this image, and now I'm pretty sure i have a female plant.
