I’m a little disappointed because it looks like all three of the assorted autoflower seeds I planted turned hermaphrodite. The Northern lights, Blueberry, and Amnesia haze all show signs of having male flowers appearing. The plants would seem otherwise healthy after 5 weeks of growing outdoors in coco amended soil in 5 gallon buckets. Growing outdoors makes it difficult to control temperature and humidity but these guys have been growing great…what do i do with them now?
Can you point out what you feel are pollen sacks? I don’t see any

@dbrn32 It’s very possible that I have just jumped to conclusions as a newbie grower. I was seeing little round pods appearing at the nodes but perhaps those are actually the female flowers appearing. I’m just confused as I just assumed those round shaped growths had to be male.

@dbrn32 In the first picture just above the white cotton string you can see what I thought was male flowers developing

Looks like they have a couple of pistils coming out of them, can you verify? If so they are female parts.

I’ve been growing for about 15 years and have never had a hermie until this year. When the pods first appeared I had to look them up. A few people said I didn’t have a problem and then I saw this.
Pistils good. No pistils watch closely…
