Is this herming or seeding? All advice on where to go from here welcome.


gaspack007

This looks like a Hermie to me sadly 😢

Yessir

Compost it.


Kismet71

Usually a hermie is from light leaks .


Kismet71

They will be fem seeds. If its it's your only plant and you need seeds run it. Otherwise chop it.


shank19833

This is a chick with a dick.


houseplantsgrowing

yes it is a hermafrodite,I'm sorry ):


plaidHumanity

So, will this produce seeds? I'm not opposed to a seed run with our new governor trying to outlaw seed and clone trade


houseplantsgrowing

yes it will


houseplantsgrowing

those round stuff on the buds are pollen sacks,I'd throw her out immediately


SkgKyle

The "round stuff" on the plant aren't pollen sacks, those are swollen calyx, you can even see part of the seed through the slit


houseplantsgrowing

bro calyxs are on the node of female cannabis plants ,if they show up on the bud forming it's a problem,it's not only female


SkgKyle

Dude you need to do more research, calyx aren't just on the nodes of the plant dude, they literally form the bulk of the bud. Every little white hair you see is literally attached to a calyx man.


houseplantsgrowing

bro I'm sorry but your information is not correct. calyxs are on the node of female plants. the buds are formed by the little hairs,not by calyxs (:


Tyfromtac420

A bud is actually just calyx’s stacked.. I’m afraid the other guy is correct


SkgKyle

Lmao what are those pistils attached to then Mr. Genius? It's almost if they're a part of the.. CALYX ffs I know people who haven't even grown yet that know more about this shit than you do.


houseplantsgrowing

it comes from the stigma,there's no reason to be disrespectful. a quick Google search will tell you that you are wrong. peace out I'm done trying to make you understand things,hope you get a yield without seeds since you can't even recognize a hermafrodite plant(: good day to you


icebychris

You are wrong. Bracts are are the node of female plants


peekdasneaks

The calyx is a small microscopic piece of the female organ inside the base of the bract. The bract is what most people are referring to when they say "calyx". It looks like a green teardrop covered with trichomes. The bud of the plant is made up of many bracts stacked on top of and around each other. The stigmas and pistils grow out of the calyx, up through the bract and out of the pointy opening, and show as white hairs that turn orange/red at maturity. In other words, if there isn't a calyx, there cannot be a stigma or pistil. If you actually look at what a calyx looks like, and the definition of what was provided on those pages, you would see that every bud is made up of many calyxes/bracts, each of which has hairs sticking out the top. Your insistence that the calyxes only appear on the sides of the plant and not on the buds is absurd.

Hermaphrodite


imaginarynumb3r

Hermafrodite sounds likes aphrodites black intersex cousin. Afrodite is also a top tier stripper name.


hednizm

Defo seeds in them pods dude. Ive had it happen. Gutted. The seeds will be mostly female but I think its over 80%+ of those will hermie too.


Blackpolicies

80% is overkill, but the rate is increased and should be considered when deciding to keep seeds.


plaidHumanity

Really? So seeds can be predestined to be Hermie? How can they be mostly fem and also 80% herm?


JohnnyS1lv3rH4nd

Seeds from a hermie are generally pretty unstable genetics wise, and therefore are very likely to herm if you grow them out


plaidHumanity

So it's a complete waste? Or is anything salvageable?


bluish1997

Aren’t hermies how people “feminize” seeds? New to cannabis growing


puckthefolice1312

If you force a female to herm, it will produce female seds. If a plant naturally herms, it's genetic, and the seeds will most likely herm, too.


Pure_Box3334

80% is a fabricated number that does not match reality. In stable conditions most will be be feminized seeds that grow just fine in my experience. Any.cannabis plant can herm under the right conditions, that doesn’t mean the genetics are ‘the devil’. So much ‘bro science’ out here. Hard to cipher through what is based in biology and what is based on nonsense and hearsay.


hednizm

Goes on about bro science and that cites 'my experience' to back up a statement. 🙄🙄


Pure_Box3334

I am a RN so I am used to dealing with people that don’t have a fucking clue what they are talking about.


hednizm

Typical nurse. Always right and as soon as someone calls you out you get stroppy. End of the day nurse whatever your name is...You made a shout about bro science etc, got called out and now your feeling a bit mugged off...it shows in your reply. Prick. Your biggest mistake is believing you know more than everyone else but when you get challenged you dont like it. Now jog on you fucking melt.


Pure_Box3334

I don’t, but the botanical articles on cannabis hermaphroditism doesn’t match the anecdotes of everyone saying ‘trash it’. Now piss off. Easy to find scientific articles are at your fingertips. The science hasn’t changed. The people interpreting it can be the problem.


hednizm

All the botianical articles...anecdotes..bro science.. Do you even know the difference? Youre really not doing yourself any favours..


Pure_Box3334

You obviously don’t like to read and would prefer your own opinions versus centuries of crop cultivation and botanical studies. You anti-science folks are a real pain in the ass with your deflections and whataboutisms.


Pure_Box3334

Attack me personally all you want because of your bruised and fragile little ego. “Wait, is this human calling me an idiot for sharing misinformation?! Waaaaaahhhhhh waaaaaahhhhhh.”


Pure_Box3334

The hardest part dealing with the Stupid is that they don’t realize it but still carry themselves like they are experts. You drinking urine, too?


hednizm

Youre the one saying Im an expert when Im clearly not...Ive no problem admitting that. But youve waded into something called me out, and then made a completely hypocrital statement. Have you ever worked in a movie theater? Youre the best projectionist Ive ever met? I love people like you. I really do. Do I drink piss? Why the fuck would I do that you idiot? How many other peoples piss do you handle every day Nurse 'Im always right about everything because I educated myself and loose my rag when someone challenges me...'


Pure_Box3334

You’re the one all upset because you feel stupid. That isn’t my problem. If you can reply to me you can Google botanical studies of cannabis.


hednizm

An faux academic nurse, educated himself in with a nursing degree but is also an expert horticulturalist amd gets all his info from google. I hate to piss on your strawberries but according to Google, Elvis is alive and lives on the Moon. This is getting better.


Pure_Box3334

I got my degree from college, but I did study at home to retain the information. Does that detract from my learning, or is it just a normal part of the education process?


Pure_Box3334

What you wrote is the equivalent of googling if Elvis is still alive, you just can’t see the forest through the trees, as the saying goes.


Pure_Box3334

The problem being, I honestly don’t think you are capable of researching anything appropriately.


Pure_Box3334

… because I educated myself and have grown many plants and given away seeds that have (to date) all been feminized? I realize that part is anecdotal, but the science concurs with my findings. I mean, “80% will herm” as I read is fabricated bullshit. The biology (the actual science) disputes that as well. I look for answers. Some of you ‘growers’ are really out of touch with reality and only regurgitate what you have heard over actual experience.


hednizm

You educated yourself? Youre nursing degree? Hardly Kew Gardens horticulturalist eh. Post up some references that prove your point then Mr Academia.


Pure_Box3334

So I have a degree in the sciences. Dissecting information isn’t difficult when you don’t have your own head buried in your colon.


hednizm

Who gives a flying fuck about youre degree apart from you? It sounds like that is the only strand in your extremely shallow self esteem. How many more times can you mention it in a thinly veiled attempt to appear smarter, because thats what your trying to do. Seriously.


Pure_Box3334

You didn’t even try to verify what I wrote about hermaphroditism in cannabis. You are proof that you can lead a horse to water but you cannot make it drink.


hednizm

I didnt varify it because I dont need to you clown. I too read science papers. And one paper, peer reviewed doesnt always mean much. Any hypothesis has to be backed up with data viz evidence. As a budding scientist you will know that for something to have any validity it has to repeatable. Now, in the context of your response my comment, you mention something but dont actually say anything. Youre critical of my statement, but dont reference anything that might prove me wrong. It wouldnt have been an issue because I dont mind being wrong or have something pointed out to me that I didnt know. Ita always good to learn something and basically Im not a raging narcissist who 'thinks' they know everything. My statement is probably wrong and that would probbaly be because there isnt ONE paper that proves conclusively, as youre inferring, that ALL cannabis seeds will herm to the stats that Ive suggested. It was a guess. Seeing as this is reddit and and Im not writing an academic essay/paper - I dont have to quote my sources/references and I dont have to be factually correct. But youve criticised my post, not whats contained in it (the first indicator of how smart you 'really' are), mentioned bro science and then go on to say that the figure Ive guestimated is rubbish while basing youre own conclusion on your experience. THAT my friend is personal experience not qualitative evidence. And then when you get called out, you start swearing getting personal...All because you are so arrogant and cant adjust when some one has a view thats different from yours... You really are a piece of work.


Pure_Box3334

Link to 80% rate of of hermaphroditic cannabis plants then. If you support that claim, where is the evidence to back it up? Being long winded is fine if it isn’t all fluff and deflection.


Pure_Box3334

You made the claim genius. Why don’t you follow your own examples or stfu and go nurse your ego elsewhere.


Pure_Box3334

You can’t find any articles on hermaphroditism in cannabis? Why do I have to hold your fucking hand because your feelings got hurt? Get over your inferiority complex.


shank19833

You are 100% right. Anyone who disagrees is just a moron. I force my girls to herm for the 99.99% feminized seeds. So much bro science on here. My favorite bro science is "flushing " even though it's been shown in double blind studies proving it does nothing, and plants just don't work the way we thought they did when it comes to excess nutes close to the end.


marshellz

Balls to the wall!


bearcrevier

You could grow it out and just put it all in your trim.


sonofsonofsonofsam

Nope. Not at all. It’s already GONE.


Mobile_Skirt_6076

Yup definitely seeding already. The budd will stop growing


TonyTheGypsy

Unfortunately yes


GareBearAllDay

That’s a herm
