Hermie?

Peaceman12 · Sep 30, 2015

i got a Yoda Kush plant. Here are some picks. Just about 4th week of flower. Hermies or just swollen calyx? Overly paranoid. Had a new strain hermie earlier and had a light malfunction with blown timer. This is too new for light issues but other plant might have spread it. Please advise

Are the swollen calyx hard? If so, it's a seed and you have a rogue male flower/flowers about. Except for the one in the third pic, which I can't quite make out, they're all calyx.
If in doubt, get in there with some clippers and nip that calyx/flower out....
It's a pain in the ass/arse being on male flower lookout... I feel for you! :wink:

It's a hermie. So check two plants near it and found one plant and a few hermie calyx so I cut off that branch. Not sure if I should have done that, but it was a branch that reached the hermie plant, so it was affected. Found another plant which I removed and moved it outside.

Advice? I'll keep a close eye on hermied branch plant and of course all the rest

All you can do is carry on plucking those bananas :/

Hermaphrodite tendencies can not be passed from plant to plant. And to me it looks like a swollen calyx. Hermie bananas are connected to the base of the flower itself. I've seen the swollen calyx you see become the first seed pod on a plant either from pollination I've done myself or from that unplanned hermie in the room. Look for banana shaped lobes at the base of the flowers and pick before they open. (they always assume this shape prior to spreading pollen)

Hermie?
