I'm wondering if anyone has had plants that looked like hermies early in flowering, but turned out to be completely female.
I have these Leda Uno plants. I started 5 seeds got 5 strong plants. I switched them to 12/12 about 10 days ago. It looked initially like I got 2 males and 3 hermies. This seemed really weird to me, since the conditions were just right and I've never gotten hermies before except sporadically when I grew bagseed-- let alone 3 out of 5.
I saved 2 of the hermies, since I was still puzzled by them, and I was emotionally attached to the time and space resources that went into them.
These two plants clearly have balls: one nut at the third node from each top. (I topped one plant once and one plant twice-- total of 6 tops). Aside from those few nuts, they look like all-girl.
Now I noticed that a pistol has come out of the top of one nut, and another nut has burst open to look like a big calyx with pistols. No pollen anywhere; and it's too early for pollen anyway.
I'm not new at this. I know a male from a female. I'm wondering whether these are really hermies, or maybe females that are late to differentiate (if there is such a thing)?
Has anyone ever seen something like this? It's a risky call to keep them around my other girls.
P.S. No I don't have a picture. My camera is not detailed enough to capture it.
