View attachment 3935892 Total newb is this hermieing or no? 22 days into flower
Need a clearer image my man but this looks like the stem calyx filling with resin looks almost like a seed husk? Take another picture a hermie will have a nana or start making seeds for no reason, even if you have pulled ALL the other male suspects. If it let oks yellow in color you may have problems.

Also if your plant hermie doesn't you have it reason to do so... what time schedule did you have it on veg, and now flower? Have you changed time cycles inside of flower period? Is there a light that remains on or light that the plant can "photosense" will not allow it to sleep or get rest during Dark! Let us know more details.. this is a hermie banana

Ok so I will take a couple more pics when I get home. I don't really have a reason for hermie. I am fighting some wpm and did a foliar spray 2 days ago well 3 now I guess. The day after some of the lower pistils were turning red ( so I'm guessing I didn't let the plants dry enough before I put them back under the light and they got burned?) my set up is a 4x4 tent in my basement with a 600w led light schedule is 12/12 for flower was 18/6 for veg and has never been interrupted and running on a digital timer. I have no light leaks as far as I know, haven't had a problem yet other than the wpm none of my equipment has any lights on it that I haven't taped off and I'm running a heppa filter on my intake. This is my first grow.

I surely don't recon you have a hermie then your setup sounds prime man! 600w is a little tiny for the size of tent but if you stick to one plant or two tiny ines size will be you friend. How far above the plant is your light fixed? And what is your current temp inside?

The times you chose are a plus 18/6 is good I use 20/4 personally! The offcourse 12/12 is standard.

Other than that everything looks great :clap:

What do you mean by wpm? Watts per meter? :bigjoint:
 
:-DWPM= white powdery mildew

My light is about 24" above canopy. I had it a little closer but the top leaves started to look funny. So I moved it up manufacturer suggests 24- 30"

I have another 600w led should I put that in there as well or better off to wait till next grow?

I have to many plants in there from lack of experience obviously but I would say it's going ok for first try.

Thanks for the help and compliment on my room
I will get better pictures of what I was worried about latter these are just a couple I had with me

Oh yeah sorry temp are in a range of 66 degrees f with the light off and 74 f with them on. Humidity is around 55 and I'm running a dehumidifier have a exhaust fan and 2 osilating fans. I would like it to be lower but I can't afford a bigger dh right now.

Humidity can be around 60 % with temp sitting between 18-23C (65-75F) so your temp is on point too is ventilation decent with fans? Should not have started PM under these conditions. Do some reading i know using potassium bicarbonate and spraying your plant folliar to clean her up. Remember that lack of clean air flow = PM. Let me know if this helped. bongsmilie
 
I have a 660 cfm exhaust fan running on a variable speed controller. I only had one small (non oscillating) desk fan running inside until about a week ago. Now I have two small oscillating fans one at pot level and one above the canopy.

The guy I got my clones off of told me he had a humidity problem and had done a sulfur burn right before I got them. I thought that took care of it. I'm guessing that that coupled with to many plants in my room is why I'm haveling a problem. Here is the best picture I could get with my phone camera sorry.

So after further researching I'm guessing I have nothing to worry about?

Any info you have helps me this is my first run at things and I want to do everything I can to get things right.

I am happy to help Lenny ! I can read the passion you have for our craft. Being a greenthumb :weed: is NOT the easiest task for many people. It bring calamity and peace. As a B+ Blood group my wife never understood my behaviors and why I am so methodical when I comes to chores. Well I find peace in a process when completing it or doing it and it really does bring me closer to myself and to the world we live in daily.

IMG_6832.JPGI snapped these two pictures for you. See on the right the pistil going into the calyx... when the male staminate produces pollen and attaches to pistil it feeds it into the reproductive female organ The Calyx- IF the calyx is never impregnated then it will swell up with resin - THC ( like all your "resin glands" aka calyx) do! So that is what you see. An unstaminated calyx flourishing towards those perfect sensimilla flowers. IMG_6831.JPG

Also been thinking abt your PM issue and seeing that WE have literally called ceded every other base. I believe that the clones you cut from ie. the mother was already infected with PM spores and once transmitted they thrive in hot/warm/ill-ventilation areas. But your vegetative seedlings if you started them on your own would have been much more healthy knowing the conditions and sickness you have exposed it to. Sure your buddy didn't tell you abt his PM issue before he offered you some clones ...:wall:

That's it from me for now. Going to check on my ladies for the morning. Once again glad to help when help is wanted!!

No? Ok. I guess you decided to tuck tail and leave.

Tell you what. If you admit that it wasn't a herm and a simple newbie breeding mistake that would go a long ways. People around here would respect that more.
