check your plant for any hidden pollen sacs and also check your calyx's for seeds..

The hairs/pistils should start dying back and the calyx's should start getting hard and producing seed.
Edit: as LAX said hidden pollen sacks. Do they have any of those?

I'm confused. Did you have a bunch of plants in the same growing area? was one a hermie? If all in the same place a good chance they got pollinated. You got any fans going?

I'd just keep an eye on them for a bit and remove the one that was herm if it wasn't showing too much pollen. Good luck man.

The first sign, is the majority of the pistils will all turn brown within a couple days, instead of gradually turning. Then, the buds will stop filling out, trich production will stop, because the plant has reverted all of it's energy into producing seeds. I had it happen twice, and it sucks major ass. All you can really do, is wait for the trichs to mature, then make hash out of 'em.

Also, when mine got pollinated, the calyxs didn't swell. The stayed small, and sorta split down the sides, very slightly, showing a little bit of light geen(almost white) color through those slits.

I hear ya there brotha, especially when you can't find the strain that hermied on ya. I had 3 strains, went though them thoroughly, and never found one sac or banana. After the second set got pollinated, I shut down and started over with fresh strains. About a week after I shut down, my buddy who took my little ones found the strain that hermied. Figures, huh?lol
