It got burned by the LED about a week ago, and there has been a huge amount of growth since, lots of new white hairs, and swelling, but are there bananas appearing, or is it me?

It is my first grow, and just dont want to let it go too long if its going to turn?

Thank you

i don't see naners.. just seed pods. was it bag seed? how long has it been flowering? (not 12/12 )

It was Nirvana Bubblelicious (auto) but it did not auto. Its day 93 in total, it vegged for at least 5 weeks, at which point I flipped to 12/12 to get them to flower, so between 7-9 weeks i'd say.

Are they swollen calyxes or seeded calyxes? because there have been no males nearby, can that happen on its own?

Should i be looking to take the main cola off soon?

I have checked the trichs but they appear to be clear/cloudy still at every point on the plant, higher clear % on the lower colas.

The pistils have definitely not receded into buds yet, and really they are about 90% white still.

Does all that need to be taken into consideration?

go by the trichs go 50/50 if you can but really it all depends on what kind of high you want... pistils really don't mean anything.

those pods that look like it has an indentation to them you may want to open one to see if there is a seed in them to me it looks like its been seeded. but i could be wrong.. .. and yes a plant can hermie without being pollinated.. can come from various things.


if you find seeds i'd chop right away

From what I have garnered, the trichs dont affect the type of high as much as the genetics, more how ripe the plant is, I'm leaning towards the belief that indica dominant strains will produce the couchlock effect and sativas the up high, grow each till they are ripe, based on all the indicating factors.

Still not sure if amber really means degradation of THC or if it is something to aim for, but as far as I am aware, fully cloudy with a few amber would be in the window of peak THC levels?

I would quite like if it seeded at this stage, would I have to leave it for another month to let them develop fully? I would really love to keep the strain alive in some form, I took clones, but they are really late in flowering, so not holding out huge hope.

I will just keep my eye on those trichs, 50/50 amber cloudy?

you could have a 100% sativa and grow til the trichs are amber and it will give you couch lock. I never get it to 100% amber.. i like usually 70% milky and 30 amber. my last grow was Nebula. a 100% sativa strain. it took much longer for the trichs to turn.. got it to about 60/40.. and holy shit talk about smacking your head high.. lol! But really man, grow to your preference. but make sure they are NOT clear. and MAKE SURE your plants do its final "plump" its the biggest one they do at the end. the buds should almsot double in size

if you want seeds they must be fully mature. it all depends on if they are seeds and when did they first develop.. best way is to open em up and look

I don't see nanners in this picture but I do see seed development. You need to take a flashlight (with good/strong light) and shine it underneath and all around your buds. Nanners/Balls can explode underneath your buds, pollinating your plant. They can also grow deep inside the buds where you cannot see them unless you use light to penetrate below the surface. At this point in your grow, seeing the Herm activity will be easier because the nanners are drying out (if you have any).

You also need to check your other plants, if you have any, to make sure they haven’t dusted this plant with snow (pollen).

Thanks for all the help guys, I will have a good look at them tomorrow, the only other plant in there has nothing odd about it, slightly swollen calyxes, but a little behind this one.

Would the seeds be viable? Should I keep it alive and just pick off anything untoward? Or should I be looking to cut some of it down?

The main thing I would be worried about is where the pollen is coming from, if in fact you do have seeds. You can take a small pin, after sterilizing it in rubbing alcohol, and poke one of the seeds out to make sure they are seeds. And, DON'T CUT YOUR PLANT DOWN YET!!!

Okay, i went to look at them today, and I discovered a seed in the top cola of bubblelicious, it was really green, so can I assume that its premature?

I would ideally like to cut some of this plant down, as it has shifted to seed production by the looks of it?

The area at the top was light burned about 10 days ago, which prompted this huge growth spurt, but also these seeds possibly, how else could it get seeds?

There is only one other plant in the room, and its a female budding nicely, with no dodgy signs.

93 days in flower will def induce a hermie. The longer the more prone to becoming hermied. Ive had a plant go hermie on me. I think it causes a drop in yield due to the change of the way it's focusing it's energy. Essentially it wants to make seeds and since it isn't pollenated it wants to pollenate itself to carry on it's genetics. If you really think it's growing still then do as you please but over flowering does cause a plant to go hermie. You could have just gotten a runt seed that had a deformity and won't finish properly. It happens unfortunately.

Ive had a bubblelicious too btw, and from the picture you supplied I wouldn't even compare your's to the one I had. Mine looked like it had snowed on it.
