is this one strictly male, or hermie?

Hey everyone, This is my second grow. I originally thought it was a female that went hermie on me, but now I think it may be a full blown male. I was reluctant to chop it due to the fact it's my only plant right now. Is it full on male, or hermie? If its male I suppose I'll take pollen for breeding and make hash.

thanks in advance,
Lavinius

Hard to say, but it looks like a full blown male - sorry man.
I don't see any hairs, just nutsacks....

Also it looks like this plant is exposed to heat stress.... notice the reddening of the stems? This is sometimes genetics, but most of the time its caused by heat stress.
I'm willing to bet that this plant was heat-stressed into becoming a male/hermie.... I can't tell if its hermie, the picture of the top cola is too blurry... but looks like a full blown male.

Sorry man

I'm not bein a dick but I think your wrong

a plant is either male hermie or female you cant shock a male plant to hermie, or shock a hermie plant to male.
If a female plant is shocked it can produce "bannanas" but it is essentially a female geneticly

hey guys, here are some clear pics of the top. Thanks for the well wishes, its sad when it goes male right? lol. It's Northern Lights, approx 2 feet tall. As far as temps are concerned, they only varied from 72-77 degrees. Very constant. The nodes are super thick too

thanks everyone. I just started another NL, so I guess I'll take some pollen to breed with, and chop him down for hash. I have a little shake from the 2 females I just harvested I guess I'll put it all together and do some gumby. I was really proud of this one too, my first plants were barely a foot tall, this one was double that.

Yeah it's depressing - the males get so big, so fast. My first grow, two out of three were male - and the males were gorgeous, the female looked like a scraggly weed! lol
