Is this a 'banana' or just strain genetics?

715CREEKS · Jun 16, 2019

I'm growing 'super lemon haze' indoors, using soil, 150w hps & 150w led, watering every other day with ph netural water.
I'm in my 8th week of flowering at 12/12, no light has entered inbetween.
Feeding once a week using ionic bloom soil, pk-13/14, calmag and guana all at half dose.
The temps are a little high during the 12 hours on, it reaches 30c occasionally but I have now corrected that. humidity in good ranges.

I noticed a white petal looking thing on one of the buds and did some searching and I am worried that I have found a 'banana', I have also read that these petal looking things come with this strain occasionally.
Can anyone shed some light for me on what it is and what i should do?

I attached some media

Thanks for any help

The top of the top in the top pic looks like it could possibly b a nut but hard to say from the pic.other than that everything looks good although it looks like you,v got a good 4/5 weeks left to go.

As in busta
Male flower starting. Seems like the only one. Pluck it and keep an eye out for new ones popping

I can't make anything out, but my eyes aren't what they used to be. The plant looks healthy and if you did find a male flower or a "banana", I wouldn't be overly concerned this late in flower. If you do find one or two, pluck them out as recommended. They are probably too late to cause seed issues, but it is best to keep them removed when discovered.

Thanks so much for your input, really appreciate it

i took some more photos and a video of the two bananas i could find and some of the other buds, does this make it any easier to see?
I'm not sure whether to cut and start again?

Bump.
I don't think that is a hermie
You should see nut sacks hanging and then the nutsacks open and let out the male pollen.

Interesting, I wonder if it's just too late in flower for seeds then?

Has your plant ever been under a lot of stress prior to flowering?

I don't think so, maybe a bit hot but nothing I can think of

8th week yeah don't worry about Hermes even if they show up you're not going to get seeds.
