Hi Mr Vinyard, I've just taken a look and can't see any Male parts in your pics, no balls. Might not be a hermie, but It does look like your plants have been overfed which could be causing the strange looking buds. I'm sure someone else here can help out with an opinion

I can confirm you have given way too much nitrogen and are killing the plant with it. Dark green leaves, yellowing dying tips, strangle curl effect from low pH... give nothing but water until harvest. next time give more info on how the plant is being handled, how much, how often, soil or hydro, etc. unfortunately, your problem this time is obvious.

Sorry I should have given more details really appreciate the advice I’m still very much a novice. Grow medium is Coco Coir the nutes I’m using (first time I’ve used this brand) are “Advanced Nutrients” ADVANCED NUTRIENTS CONNOISSEUR COCO BLOOM A+B PH PERFECT hand fed following recommend dose 4ml of A&B per litre. I don’t have any real schedule for feeding my guess now from your advice is I’ve over fed..! Would you suggest next time I feed one day and the next day use just straight water.? I chose this nutrients purely for their ease of use as it keeps PH in check without having to do it myself. Really appreciate any advice

Hi Mr Vinyard, I don't grow in Coco, but my understanding is that growing in coco is like hydro growing so even though the Advanced Nutrients say they keep the PH correct i think you'd be better off PH'ing your Nutrient solution before watering your plants. As for feeding one watering and then just watering the next it might be a good idea or just start out at half strength and work up to the recommended amount depending on how your plants react. I grow in soil as it's more forgiving than Coco so as a new grower you may want to consider changing to soil

If you using a decent soil you don't have to feed that often. once every two weeks maybe. depends on nutrients in your soil, how much of it is in the pot. you might be looking at a hydro feeding level at 4ml per litre. you have to understand the fert, the soils, how to use them properly. the differences between soil and hydro, etc.

No the nutrients are specifically for coco I’m thinking more I’m feeding too often and as Indo said above I should still check PH thank you all input I’m great full for

Too much nutes will cut your yield. Those are the darkest green plants I have seen in a while.

No worries for the advice fella and I've had no problems with soil indoors. I use Plant Magic Soil Supreme which is a light mix that I can amend or add nutrients to straight away if I wanted to. I mainly still use soil because its easy and forgiving. I work 12+ hour shifts and live in a small flat in a country that doesn't allow for marijuana cultivation so I've had to find the easiest way to grow as I just don't have the time or space to be able to go all out. I have a basic setup and am still able to get good results. If you can master the basics then the rest will fall in to place
