I have one female that I think is a hermie. I have tried several times to take pics of the tiny little sacks that I think are growing under the leaves. I could not get a good picture so I just took the tweezers and took it off the plant. I am posting the pics of it in my hand. Do you tink this is a pollen sack? There are some of these that have white hair coming from them. I have 1 other female that has none of these sack like things on it. I just do not want to get tons of seeds and pollenate the only stong female I have. So Please let me know what you think.:confused:

I cant tell by that picture hon.
maybe this will help you determine what it is....
a male has balls only that will open up and release pollen, like you already know
they look like this


a female will have ball type shapes called calyxes. Those are what the hairs grow out of and what the actual buds you smoke are made of.
they look like this


now look @ em and let us know which one that you have...If there are no hairs then its a male, if there are only hairs and calyxes then its a female.
If it has calyxes, hairs, and male flowers (balls dont have hair like the calyxes do) then it is a hermie

kochab, that big one at the top looks like it is flipping a bird at you... did it feel like it was giving you the finger when you saw it the first time? LOL

I have a good camera that I must not know how to work. I try right now to get some better pictures. I will post some more asap.
I use a jewelers loupe and a web cam to take most of my pictures. the loupe allows me to magnify things while allowing the focus to the picture from fucking up because I would normally need to zoom in.
zoom fucks pictures up everytime for me
