Live Stoner Chat Did my plant just go hermie?

[DamMatt]

Cream mandarine auto. I am at day 70 and the trichromes have never gone amber and are just staying cloudy. I noticed today on the top cola something i have never seen before and im wondering if my plant is trying to go hermie or am I over reacting. Should i just harvest it? This is my first auto grow. Thanks in advance.

I don't see any nanners. I see an odd pistil cluster
But maybe I'm missing the nanners?

Keep in mind that all trichomes don't turn amber. Some plants just stay cloudy. It looks like it is shooting out new pistils at the end of life. Plants do that in nature as a last ditch effort to get pollinated. I don't see any male sacs forming. I just see old dry calyxes, and newer ones shooting out pistils (yellowish hairs).

Thanks! I never have seen this before with my regular grows. It just looked strange and got me worried lol.

I think your seeing the beginning of foxtailing. First pick looks like a foxtail getting ready to pop. Tight cluster of pistils, kinda extend, then swell.

Yes good call! . I didnt know what fox tailing was but now i do. That is exactly what its starting to do. Im pretty close to the end so i dont think it will effect much.

A foxtail or two doesn't bother me too much... there are several strains that its normal to see. If temps and rH are good, soldier on!
