Banana yellow things are male flowers.
Usually a few here and there won't be detrimental as they generally remain closed due to the compactness of the buds.
Some strains that are unstable will do it early.
Others will produce nanas if they're flowered for an overly long period of time.
Its kind of like a self preservation mode.
Male flowers found on a flowering female will not carry any male chromosomes.
In theory if you keep the pollen from these nanas you can make your own feminised seeds.

so I may be closer to chop then I think?

Possibly.
Could just be the strain in question throws out a few towards the end if its life during scenesense.
Could be you're flowering to long for the strain.
Stresses can cause it too.

they are single bladed leaves that look really quite odd when comparde to reg leaves on the plant but i have had some really good success with reveging a few dank strains i had to put through another round

when I vegged this one I put up around 2 weeks in veg I fucked up and used water that I hadn't set out overnight to let the chlorine out the leaves got a slight twist and every new leaf on that level was a single leaf. the next were 3 then the next were 7 and it had a ring all the way around of single leaves til I did my trim

i am assuming your still vegging and thats why your bringing it in for more light there are some nice fixtures out there that hold 8 or 12 t5s or really however many you can afford in a single fixture as to avoid all the cords and shit but also mh are also a really nice veg light personally i use a t5 8 bulb fixture till there about 2 ft tall then will switch over to a mh till i go to 12 12

ya leds r nice i know draw from the wall (electric wise) to production you get alot more but really i feel like it comes down to preference each has the there pros and cons i use hps then i have even seen some nice grows the whole way through with t5 lights but as a first time indoor i would recomend going with hps for flower and mh for veg get a dual ballast for that so you can switch the bulbs
if you do go led there are a lot of people o this site that know there shit about them so i would deff ask lots of quesitons before deciding
ya and if oyu have not topped yet i think its always a good idea to but it may add a few extra days or so depending how much topping you do i like main lining and it adds on average id say about 2 weeks to your veg may b 3 if you stress them but it can go form 4 to 16 main tops depending how many times you top and your space
really is worth the extra time though
