new growth or hermie paranoia?

keep an eye on it, the new growth does look like male parts sometimes, just the way the tops grow upwards. like puff said remove asap if they are GL

Kill it. The sacs coming out that early. Some might of already burst and you might not know. That's shitty pollen. No bueno.

Thankyou for your answers gentlemen. While looking over them earlier this morn, those little ball looking things turned out to be new growth. As this is my first go at this strain, they were very odd to me and worried me a bit as I did have a small light leak earlier before going to flower. Now, if I could just get these temps down a bit more, my ladies would love me forever. They hover round mid 80's lights on and bout 70 lights out. I am running some DIY carbon Dioxide bottles which I hope will help. The prob is I had to place the ballast inside with them to remain as stealthy as possible. The next planned grow they will be outta there and I should be able to maintain more desirable temps. I in no way claim to know-it-all, but with help from this community maybe someday I will know enough.

Again I thankyou.


RIG....
5x4x7 area
2 600 watt hps lamps with cool tubes
2 inline 6" fans..1 feeding tubes venting outside. and the other pumping fresh air
1 exhaust- basically a DIY 8" fan drawing heat/stale air out



Thought for the day: People are not born stupid...but they spend allot of time trying to achieve it.

Did they experience any stress in veg- last year I had 4 hermies in with my feminized seeds and couple sacs even showed up in couple other girls late flower- I put them through major stress about 2 months into veg I transferred them outdoors without sufficient acclimation and almost killed them. After they revived from that mistake I thought a good boost of fertilizer would be good and poisoned them with nitrogen to the point were all the bottom leaves turned yellow... and after they revived from that I over watered them.. I killed 10 outa 30 plants, but did learn many valuable lessons. Anyways stress during veg seems to lead to hermies. I was going to keep one because I read that the seeds from hermie plant will all be feminized- but later killed it because I then read that these seeds will be far more likely to turn into hermaphrodites with any minor stress.

What you read was incorrect. They will likely turn monoecious hermaphrodite with the same stress that turned the parent(s).
Stress does not alter DNA.
