A farmer sprouted some snow ryder autoflowering seeds that he had previously bred the year before. Two of three that survived, are showing what looks like male flowers that have pistols growing out of them. The other of the three looks like a normal female thus far, its also a different pheno (more bushY .) I originally bred the bushy phenos to get these seeds too. So the two more lanky ones that show what looks like male flowers with pistols growing out are kinda confusing. any info or direction is apreciated.

another thought for your herms come in different percentages could be 10% or 90% that percentage will effect all parts of the plant to that percentage if you feel me
in otherwords if its 10% herm its sperm is going to produce 10% herms
better not to deal with herms especually (dam i cant spell) if you are breeding
all the fimanized plants and playing with everything has all these herms poping up everywhere
so if breeding dont contribute to pboblem by spreding more hermed sperm around
lets do ourselves a favor

i am very sorry but the plant with pistil balls is a shim. i just had a plant do that to me. i hung on to hope for 2 days because of the hairs and the fact that i had never seen this kind of hermie, but after the 2 days it was time to give it up. those are pretty good example pics though. they will probably help quite a few people. my pics kind of suck but the plant looked like this:

Kill them/it or take them far far away from your gals. its no doubt a hermie. I can see seeds forming and some open male flowers.
Unfortunately they have had a hard life. Most of their sisters and brothers and those somewhere between, have died cause while not in my care sat in puddles for a bit, and then left without water for too long. and with me they have gotten a lil heat stressed in a greenhouse. That picture was taken shortly after transplanting and they needed a drink. Since these pics the pure female has been doing good er.. better.
