Huh?! Whaaa...?! Ballsack? Hermie? Nooooooooo.....only 1 shows this, and it happens to be the one right by where the door closes, hmmm. 1 ball per internode. Weird, female flower one side and then it alternates to the other side each internode. I thought male flowers grew in multiples? Stinky...Pharma....Reaper....Rhizome....Hound.... Crispi.... Zandor?.....anybody?

So is that a male pollen sack?

Having trouble telling from your photos. Are you in flower yet? How many days? If you are just starting blooming it could be male or female.....can you get a photo from above?

If you have pistils growing on one side of the same plant that you have the spot circled on....then I'd say yes, looks like a hermie. The only way I would not think think that is a male pollen sack is if the plant were just STARTING to turn.

Wait for more opinions than mine though.....safety in numbers...;)

Thanks. That's what I was afraid of. Yes, today was day 12 of flower, Here's the log of the grow. (http://boards.cannabis.com/closet-cabinet-growing/121325-came-closet.html) PLENTLY of 110% for sure female calyxes/hairs on that one. I wasn't sure if those we're just huge unopened female calyxes.....haha....that sounds so ignorant in retrospect.....ahhhhhh:wtf:

So can I just pick these fuckers off and still harvest good sensimellia? There were 2 on the entire plant. (I check, THOROUGHLY) I already (carefully) picked one off to take outside to check for pollen, clear juice came out. How many more will try to pop up? Should I just :chainsaw: it?

Well if you want to be completely safe....yes, toss it and watch the others. I honestly don't know much about hermies.....had some my first grow and tossed them. Now I use Reverse by Dutch Master and not a hermie since.

Some better pics.

pic 1 - showing a normal internode vs. balled one.
pic 2 - close-up of hermie node
pic 3 - picture from top of the hermie in question.

So what should I do with this "it"? Make butter? I don't see very many trichomes yet.......Would these pollen sacks erupt and seed the entire plant? (Meaning, if I put it outside, by itself, would it pollinate itself?....?)
