Hi guys was wondering wether someone could look at these pics for me and tell me if my plant has gone hermie on me or am I just being paranoid

First grow so not sure wether or not there flowers waiting to open because I can see white pistles sprouting out

Any help is very welcome

Cheers

Looks perfectly fine from here as well! What you are looking at on your plants is called a "calyx". They are the kangaroo pouches for seeds. If you ever want to know if your plant is seeded or if it hermed.. Pinch a few of the calyx.. They should be empty.. Squeezable.. If you squeeze it and feel something inside.. Its a seed. But your pics are not of a herm plant.

Growers Note: What you'll want to do is learn the difference between a calyx, and a pollen sac! A calyx will alwatys have one or two pisitls shooting out of it. Pistils are associated with female plants. Pollen sacs will not have pistils. They will be tiny ball shaped sacs, grouped together, and will not have any pistils shooting out of the tip. Below are a couple of pics that may help..

Below is a pic of a true herm. Notice the differences between it, and your pics. The herm pollen sacs have no pistils.. They are 3-4 sacs grouped together.

This pic is just a better look/explanation of a calyx and its purpose and it's different stages of life. You can even tell when you're in the harvest window by watching the pistils. Hope this helps!
