I've never had to deal with a hermie before so I've never seen one in real life. I am about 99.9% sure this is a hermie from pics I've seen. I don't know what would of caused it to hermie, out of 12 plants only one hermied. It has these banana flowers all over the plant. It was not a feminized seed, and I can't see any light leaks. Why would only one plant hermie?

Hey smurf
hard to see those pics...but if they look anythingGEDC6020we.jpg like this blueberry ... than yes. As to why she went that route could be from a few things. Some strains are prone to throwing male parts out mid-late flowering. I find this in blueberry alot, and a few sativas indoor will herm sometimes. Maybe it was stressed in some way.

yeah i cant really tell either. But like dizzle said some strains due in fact carry the hermy giene. It could be a result from the mother the seeds came from. Or the mothers mother. Kinda like hair color. you will get variations in every single different seed. Even if from the same mother.

Smurf - your plant isn't necessarily a hermie. I'd consider a hermie a plant that grows both pistols and pollen sacks at the same time, which usually happens at the beginning of flower. You do have some 'nanners' which shouldn't affect your plants. I have a purple strain that throws nanners LATE in flower but it never gives me any seeds.
