Is this normal? Weird looking "buds". *Pics*

Idk whats up with it? Im assuming its the shitty growing conditions. Just incase its not the aforementioned "shitty conditions" i would like to know, what it is and/or how to prevent/fix it. Thank you kind gentlemen.
Also does it look close to flushing time?

very strange looking, almost look like male pollen sacks, could be a male, or hemephrodite maybe, or simply rare strain. In regards to flushing youll know when it is 2 weeks roughly away from harvest as about 70% of white hairs turn amber colour

u got a ugly hermie no way to fix that just grow out the seeds

ok thanks, i have another plant of the same strain but has more regular buds. They were grown outside in the summer and brought under a CFL after summer ended. What are the chances its a male/herm? It has pistils and trichomes, id there any chance a male would have them properties? And what is standard procedure for Herms?

@g13skunk

How sure are you? and what should i do with it if it is indeed a herm, its in with other female plants too, should i remove it immediatly? Thank You

I think i may have an idea as to why they look like this...

Did this cutting come from a flowering plant?
Did you put it into flower from start?

Imo it looks like it is still in flower but starting to reveg....but stetching for light too??? what light and light schedual is it on? veg/flower

It can be fixed!

It came from a bagseed, it wasnt in flower to start with, just summer days for about 1-2months and then 16/8 for another 2 or so months then 12/12(currently).

looks like the buds are stretching for more light? is she getting 12 hrs of complete darkcycle...no light leaks.

What light are you using?

yes 12 hours complete darkness for sure. im using a CFL (cool white 150w 6400k) i know i should be using the warm white for flowering but i dont have the funds atm. I have 4 plants under it none of them are too big and 2 of the other plants are showing these signs (albeit not as bad) on the lower part of the main stem.

They just could use more light and yes a 2700k would help? or a few on the sides... but if you can get more side light on these would help say 2 small cfl's...or you will just have some loose buds on the bottoms...how do the tops look? have a pic? and of your light...

One for 4 plants??? seems like not enough

tops are ..ok . my mother has my digital camera so i cant take pic of the light but i have a pic i took of the top of one of them.

I will try get some small CFLs for the lower parts. But its for sure not hermie ye?

For the most part its due to my shitty setup ye?

no man no hermie there...all the pistles have hairs coming out from them....and Shitty set-up....No way !!! You have to learn to see this and adjust and keep going....its all a learning experience man and soon you will know how to read the plants, which will help you in the long run but hey in my eyes.....Success you are almost done! That is an accomplishment in itself!

You just need to work out a few clitches...which will come ...all the info is here at RIU...i know i have read alot here....just have to figure out who is for real and who is bullshit... lol

Thanks bro really appreciate it.
Just out of curiosity, and i know the pic isn't great so wouldn't be easy to tell but does it look far of the flushing stage, thanks again mate.

flushing will come when she is almost done like a week before you cut it...how long has it been in flower now?

That's what i mean you have to take things slowly and absorb all info before deciding what scissors to use.... lmao good one though!

It's that thought that scares me! How much advise people jump to do instead of finding out forsure before doing something drastic!!!?

tbh mate im not too sure, around 6-7weeks maybe?

I would try to wait...if You can...a couple more weeks to get those buds ripe....like when you got more redhairs so at least 50% and some will start to receed a little this will insure that she is about ready....and once you get more side light im sure you will see a difference!

okay, thanks for the help man, id be lost w/out you. cheers see you around
