I’m at the end of my flowering but I noticed something weird on one plant. Does that little bulb mean this plant is a hermaphrodite? I plucked a few of them off and they’re empty. There’s nothing inside. Curious if this is normal or if I need to go through and pull them all off. Thanks for the help

Do you have something to check your trichomes so you know when to harvest? 
Jewelers loupe or magnifier will do the job

@bartenderjoe, those are some of the first preflower calyxes at the lowest part of a flower node. That is why they are so big and swollen. They have been thee a while. They are like a big zit that did not pop; full of cannabinoid resin. In nature they would have grown a seed if pollinated, and once ripe, the outer skin of the calyx would dry up and release the seed. Unfertilized they just continue to swell and store resins.
Good eye and way to be on it.
