ok thx toker i was worried.. my buddy came over to check it out for me cuz he has somepast exp. he tried to convince me it was males.. i was like.. what are the odds all 4 of my plants are males....

I'm not the greatest expert dude, but in my opinion i would say that looks just like a natural growth bulge - maybe from where the plants put on a burst of energy to grow & strengthen its stems & branches for forthcoming budding. And thus the reason it looks a shiny green is just cause its new growth & in a few weeks time it would solidify & look more bark-like & match the colour of the main stem.

I especially think this since u say u got it all over all the plants yet u mention no hairs, protusions, etc & also make no mention of any liquid weeping, cracking, splintering, etc. (which would be more serious signs if these symptoms were present too) I may well be wrong but i would guess its just structural support growth from its main stem to its limbs.

In fact Tip Top toker, even knows the name - branch collar - looks like i've learnt something new too! hehe! Nice one!

It is INDEED a branck collar... or I refer to it as a knuckle... It is what forms in areas that are slightly stressed by a branch weighing them down. As buds form and make the branches top heavy, these form all over the place as a natural reaction of reinforcement to keep the branch from snapping... They are NOT males... However... you would be surprised how often you will get 4/4 males... This is why I buy Female seeds... And NO, they are not hermie prone.... GROWERS are prone to make plants hermie because there is human error... Plain and Simple..
