HELP! 43 days old

Grow Support Autoflowers
1

Are these…are these balls?

This lady was severely stunted early on, I was using the wrong fertilizer. Blueberry Auto from ILGM, 43 days from seed, now in a coco/perlite mix, 3 gallon smart pot, GH Flora trio plus CaliMAGic, in my greenhouse from seed to harvest. Obviously female, lots of white hairs, buds already forming (I have exactly 5 bud sites at the moment, but lots of new growth since switching nutes, so maybe…?) Smells great already, but if this is a hermie (offensive??) I’m going to cry. Actual tears.

It’s hard to see because your pictured “balls” are out focus, but those look like female flowers.

@KeystoneCops indeed, using my cell camera and my hands shake. I’m see if one of my kids can get a better shot in an hour or so. If it is ‘balls’ wow there has to b a better name for that, if it is I know I have to remove it from the greenhouse or risk it pollinating my other plants. But will it still finish forming buds if I let it grow, like inside my house or somewhere? I’m not sharing my crop lol it’s all for me, and a few extra seeds could mean lots of experiments right? Or do I just trash it?

Do you have any others that will be affected? If not I don’t see the problem in letting it keep going.

What @KeystoneCops said. Looks like swollen calyx.

@Druiddescent yes? This whole experience has been effed up at every turn, by my own doing of course. As of today, I have this plant (43days old), one that is 30 days, and three that are day 22.

@Eagles009 Calyx. Technical term for plant balls? Still sounds dirty. Or is that something else entirely?

8

It’s technically only the outer fleshy shell that covers up other parts of the flower but it’s used liberally to describe the female flower.

@Eagles009 Oh goody. So, not balls?

10

In my not so expert opinion. Not balls.

11

Balls won’t have pistils coming out. The little hairs

Thank you. I’ll try to remember that for when the little ones reach that stage

No problem, do check back if you get more replies I’ve been wrong before. But this looks like an easy one to me, why I chimed in
