Am I screwed or is there something I can do?

I have 2 plants week 5 of flower which have these sacks on quite a few places. I am not sure how to proceed. I assume it has hermied? I have so much anxiety because everything in that tent may be exposed now. What should I do?

The other thing I noticed is that one of the bud sites looks brownish. I woke up to this and I just don’t know what in the world is happening. Everything looked so healthy.q



The bottom bud site is one that looks more healthy.

That’s swollen calyx. No issues
Pistil death shown could be several things. Without knowing your grow, check to see if fan is strongly/constantly blowing on them, or light intensity too strong since no issues lower.

So this is not a hermie? I will be safe to continue? I do have fans blowing but not crazy. My ppfd for lights is about 900-1000

Not hermie. Puffed up calyx (what make buds). Safe to carry on

Any thoughts on the yellowing leaves or is that just the buds taking from those fans?

Again thanks for the knowledge.


One in the back right.

Don’t worry about a couple leaves. In this case, just as you thought, it’s being cannibalized for nutrients above. They tend to eat lower or damaged leaves.

Last question and I will leave you alone I promise lol. :squinting_face_with_tongue:

This picture is what alerted me today to begin with. Is this the start of bud rot? This bud looks different from all others and is the only one. I may have touched it yesterday.

No signs not that I can tell. Makes it difficult with the blurple color offset. BR would be grey to tan.

Plants look great. Nice painted nails. Good color.
If they hermie thet do it hard and FAST. If you are not looking for it lower sacs can form and open in a week. You can absolutely tell the difference with the grapes.

Thanks everyone! I brewed a tea last night with molasses and a touch of worm castings. I am hoping that will be a good push for them in the last stretch!
