your not wrong haha that's a male clearer than day. not a hermie, that requires female sex organs; seeded bud. these are plain male clusters.

Ah you edited ok, I think the top looks like hairs, but in that lighting it's hard to see.

Thanks for the quick replies. All the pics are from the same plant. What confuses me is the top looks like its flowering, no?

I thought so, that why I said what I said. Are they white hairs or green leafs?

A hermie is encountered when a female flowering plant is pollinated by the pollen of either a separate male, or when stressed into producing the sex male organs, in turn pollinating oneself. (that's what I've come to understand)

also, the top of an early flowering male plant appears deceivingly like a female bud until it gets larger, by then it is too late and has likely released pollen.

That one pic does look like there are some female hairs,but I can't see them in the other pics.Its either a hermi or a male,so out it goes.

I agree with everything but the bold part. A pollinated female does not make it a hermie. It just makes seeds. Grow on!!:weed:

That is not considered a hermi bro.Thats just MJ sex.You'll get seeds when that happens.
A hermi can be caused by stress or just plain old bad genes.
I was always told to shit can any hermis immeditaly.

"Marijuana plants are either male or female . The male Marijuana plants produce pollen which pollinates the flowers of the female Marijuana plant, which once pollenized, produce seeds . If the female Marijuana plant isn't pollenized (if there are no male Mariuana plants nearby producing pollen), the flower/buds continue to develop and produce THC. Female Marijuana plants which are not pollenized are referred to as sinsemilla (without seeds). Usually 30-50% of the Marijuana plants are male."

I may have been mistaken. I may however acknowledge that like a pregnant woman is not a hermie, nor would a pollinated plant be. Hermaphrodites however are classified by having both male and female sex organs.

Now here are some pics from plant C. Again, its one week into flower, 9 weeks old from seed. But this one is Top-44 strain.

All 3 of these plants looked exactly like females to me when the preflowers showed. Especially this Top-44 plant.

Thanks again everyone!
