Well... I thought I had some nute lock out going on so I gave each of my plants a good flush to knock out the salts... and I saw massive increases in growth since... but now I am looking at the newest growth and it is lime green... the same color I've seen male flowers in the past. The thing is, they're still so small I can barely see what I'm looking at. I couldn't find my 30x loupe, but I took these macro shots and cropped them up so I could get some opinions.
Tell me these are just some really young and unripe calyxes showing green... I can't see any specific male flowers, but they're so small I can't be sure. I do see hairs growing out of at least some of the bright green, which gives me some hope... really would rather not have to chop early again, but I have 5 females in the closet adjacent to this room and I don't want them getting fertilized from this batch indirectly...
Here are the pics, please tell me what you think we're looking at here:
Want to believe they're just new growth, maybe new leaves being the culprit that is throwing me off... because i've been seeing such good bulking going on since I flushed (about 4-5 days ago) but I'm scurred. :\
Edit: Just had a few friends over in our T5 thread tell me this is looking normal... so I'm worrying a lot less now.
