I think this may be a pollen sac with white hairs growing out of it im very confused:( i have some of these on my female plants.

never fear mate, that looks to me like a full resin gland :)
Your plants fairly into the flowering stage?

this is a calyx. this is a female reproductive organ. the pistils (white hairs) are little tubes that catch pollen. once they catch pollen, it is guided to the calyx where it will fertilize the egg inside which creates a seed and keeps the lineage going. the seed grows right there inside of the calyx and it splits open once the seed is ripe.

no worries mate, you've got yourself a full-on lady!

To me that just looks like a plump calyx, tho too plump to be sensi... might have a hermie sac in there somewhere fouling things up on the girly parts.

i've got plenty of calyxes that size on sensi plants. not to mention, if it was that ripe with seed it would probably be split, not to mention the pistils wouldn't be sticking out of it (although the number of pistils is confusing. lol).

ive seen calyx's that were swollen the size of grapes with sticky gooey resin inside, not seeds. its strain dependent

and if it were pollinated and seeded, the hairs would be brown and dead

That is a picture I took almost a month ago,...

Fourth post down in the thread.


the pic is of a single flower calyx that has 5 Pistils coming out of it..... I was arguing with Rusty about this being a potential sign of a herme plant since the same plant was generating "Nanners" (the other pic I posted in the thread above! ;) )

And to clarify,... the OP's link is to MY pic of a flower that I took. and not one of his own.

Here's some more in that vein.

http://boards.cannabis.com/plant-problems/189927-ones-rusty.html I never stated that it was my pic i just found a pic on a thread that looked very similar to what is on my plants . There was never a conclusion with multiple people agreeing on what it was. So i decided to save myself some work and use your pic:thumbsup:

yes!...pollenated pistils turn brown, quick, like over night.
(I painted lower pistils with pollen and left the middle and top buds sensi)..white hairs on top...brown on the bottom...same as me..:stoned:

[Rusty Trichome]

Pistils also die from old age, wind burn, mishandling...and multiple pistils are common.

TsarBomba: Perhaps a little more learnin' before offering advise is a good idea. Sensimilla (sensi) is a term refering to flowers produced from a female plant (in this case, cannabis) that has not been fertilized and doesn't contain seeds.

Seeded calyx's have a yellowish 'racing stripe' from base to tip, and they don't grow-out fresh pistils once seeded. Just like people's noses, earlobes and ego's grow with age...so do the calyx's.

[hendrix01]

Sinsemilla'.. not sensimilla'.. 2 spanish words' sin and semilla'.. without seeds

[jred555]

sorry to say but i think you may have a hermie :wtf:

[GetThisOrDie]

I dont see why people would look at that picture and conclude that its a hermie...

Its clearly a calyx with multiple pistils. Ive never seen a hermie plant that had pistils growing from its nanners. In fact you can probably find calyxs with multiple pistils like that on any plant if you look hard enough.
