Green Pistils? Is dis Banana?

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone could tell me what I got here. It looks like the pistils on my plant are green, and I have absolutely now Idea if its male or female, probably some tumblr strain with gender identity issues.
Pix related.


[Note: Leaves were damaged by my cat and what looks a little bit like nutrien burns was actually caused by mites]
pH 6.1
Light: Sun and 10W Led
Soil: 50% coco 50% earth from my backyard

It's a bit hard to tell...some closer pics at the node would help...

Those things are side branches starting and as far as sexing that would take 2 weeks of 18/6 and looking right under/around those things you are asking about to get a good read on it. Most important skill needed to grow.... Patience.

from what I am looking at in those photos I would say you are just seeing the side branching starting to come out. those green "pistols" are new leaves similar to the top of your plant. They look fairly under developed though for how tall that plant is so I would recommend more light and training the top down to allow the hormone shift to encourage the side branching development.

And guess what! You guys were right ^^ after a full day and some closer inspection its clearly visible now, that these would-be preflowers are in fact branches. Thanks tho (; I'll keep you posted.

Get some CFL's or something on that thing! The distance between nodes is huge. How far along is it? Maybe consider topping it and move that light closer and get some more lights. Sun is good, but how much sun would you say it sees a day? You need lights that will put off more than 10W for times when the sun isn't shining on it.

I'm on it, I hope those will do

Would those lights work^^^^? Also any one here able to maybe tell about this one? Seed popped march 28 but been keeping inlt in a solo cup untill i know.

I took a couple clones off it. Going to put them under 12/12 once they take so ill know for sure

THC Bomb.

If on budget I would look for a agro plant flood light bulb. Like the 'Philips 415307' OR a 3 pack of dollar CFL's. OR go out into the Forrest out back and get dirty.

Thanks for the recommendation, I just ordered a tent, some CFLs, and a load of e27 extenders, hope this investment will be worth the money, ^^ I think I will use LTS on the bigger plant and simple topping and fimming on the tiny one (which is starting to develop some really dense leaves)

Any objections? Or better ideas?
