Sudden growth of green tip.

I am growing 4 plants, 2 roadrunners, 1 wappa and grapefruit diesel. the roadrunners lately have shown this growth of green little tips on top of the main cola. My confusing research tells me that the roadrunner might be a hermie. The plants are exactly 10 weeks old from seed. The bud is fluffy in nature, and there is good bud development, and what look like seed development actually is empty inside; looks and feels like growth of new leaves when inspected by hand. The leafs across the cola are drying out and turning yellow, very easy to take off.

Please tell me if these are healthy females or hermies? should i keep them in the grow room or take them out? are the other two plants pollinated if these are hermies?

This is my first time grow, and it's legal to grow and smoke on your property where i live.

Sorry dude but those plants look sick as hell! Yellow/brown leafes with burnt and bent tips.
I personally would start all over again and read alot of threads here on RIU. Im too newb to know exactly where the problem is, but hopefully some more experienced grower can help you out. They've helped me alot already

I say cut em down

well they are female. i see no sacs.

but as for healthy. the general apearance is of prolonged over fertilization.
the distance between calyx nodes makes me beleive you need more light. (3000 lumen per sqft min req. for proper growth, and 5000 would be better)

the browning is almost deff fert burn, enough of the plants central mass became damaged that the plant felt threatened, so it started a short term veg phase to try and increase budding sites and distribute more of the nutes. thats the new green stuff.

get some sizzors and cut off all those solid brown leaves before u flush

check your water ph make sure thats not cuasing the burn. then flush, wait a week or so before begining fert again, and start at half the strength u were using.

they look close to harvest, u might wanna consider

Thanks a lot. I did over fertilize and I've been flushing for a week now, but the sudden growth surprised me. The reason for stretching was light, it was too far from the plants and i only realized that late.

Given that all my seeds were sold as female seeds, and if I do not allow any kind of light leaks during dark time, would I any time end up with hermies? and how would a plant reveg under a 12/12 regime?

Thanks again, your explanation of everything else is very reasonable.
