Big balls in Cowtown? Calyx or pollen sack?

Hey hows it going. Im a little confused and hope yall can put my mind at ease. Here's my setup
4x4x6 tent
(4) qb120s on 320 watt driver
(10) Samsung L09 strips on 320 watt driver
4 Foot Solacure Tube
Coots Mix Soil in 10 gallon fabric pots
I top dress ammendments per coots recommendations in between plain waterings. Also use gnarly barley and ewc's.

So these are DLA 5 x Goji og. They've been in flower almost 3 weeks.

A few days ago during watering, I noticed what looked like seeds underneath some nodes. I got to looking, and there were quite a bit on the plant. They look just like a seed, elongated sphere and pointed at the end.


As I looked around, I saw more that appeared to be open, with pistils coming out.

So are these just calyx's that are swollen and look like pollen sacs? I pulled 5 or so, and carried them downstairs and popped them open. No pollen or anything yellow.


This is only my 4th grow, and I have very little experience with males. I figured before I go plucking these off, I would get some opinions from more experienced growers. I searched and read a few threads, but didn't want to hijack any. I understand this is a common topic, please forgive me, im just a little confused.
Ive got an nl1 and a phk in the same tent, and they're about 6 weeks into flower. What do yall think?

Pollen sacks I'm sorry to say imo...

Some of those look like nanners. The third pic looks like a calyx above a nanner.

Fear the monkey.

Couldn't agree more brother.

Just wanted to give an update. I hunted and searched all over the plant, and removed 40-50 balls after making this post. I search every time I water, and I haven't seen a single one return. Keeping my fingers crossed, because this plant looks and smells

I can't believe I missed this and you both told me lol. Sorry.


Here's your monkey @GrassBurner

Thanks!! I was on the fence about what to do, and when you said it was a true herm I started plucking. I was thrown off by the hairs coming out of some of the pods. I brought them downstairs and split them all open, about 70% did have the insides of a pollen sack, but no pollen present. Anyways, I appreciate the advice, it helps the growing pains Here she is

This smoke turned out Potency is off the charts. Beautiful rock hard nugs.

Plant was a good producer. Must have missed a couple balls somewhere, I was lucky enough to find a few seeds in lower buds while trimming. Absolutely gonna grow this again, even with the hermie issue, it's too good not to.
