Even if the seeds are feminized they still have some chance of hermaphrodizing. The reason is because the way they get feminized seeds is they usually breed the female with a hermaphrodite plant... This makes the seeds "feminized" cuz the "mom" is full female and the "dad" is a hermaphrodite, but there's still male DNA in them, so there's always a chance of a hermie... That's what I got from all the research I've done anyways...Hi fam,
I purchased feminized seeds (Gorilla zkittlez - Barney's) from seedsman.com, and sadly I am 7 days into 12/12 and this is looking male. I am in denial primarily because the seeds claimed to be feminized. Can any experienced growers out there confirm 100%, or, has anyone ever had a pistil sprout late from such a suspicious looking preflower? Please help as I have a female strain from another breeder in the same tent.

I would take it out of the tent so it doesn't accidentally pollinate anything but you can still get bud off of it & if there's not many naners you can cut them off & have a good chance of it not pollinating itself if you keep an eye on it...
They usually force a female to produce male flowers, and the "male" contains no male DNA to pass onto the female. Usually in fem seeds done properly there should be no male genetics. Tgats not to say it cant herm and make male flowers, but again those "male" flowers wont contain any true male genetics.Even if the seeds are feminized they still have some chance of hermaphrodizing.

I thought the same thing, this is just mysterious. The plant was showing some deformations in the first two weeks from seed with twisted leaves, wonky genetics. I haven't fimmed or clipped anything, these are untouched preflowers from some of the top nodes. I'm still going to imagine that these will eventually produce pollen sacks given that 10 days into 12/12 and there isn't a single pistil in sight, but I just wanted to reach out to see if any more experienced growers have come across something similar.Looks weird. Cant tell the sex from those pics, it just looks like a tiny clump of foliage at the nodes. Like RT mentioned, looks fimmed or somethimg. Id give it a while before worrying.
Hey I have a Fem Plant from seed showing this exact type looking mystery? Anyone else have any ideas. I really really hope it is a Full Female plant. These clusters of micro leaflets do resemble a Male more than a female since they are not Pistils. The breeder stands by this Fem line strain being fully stable with no reports of hermaphroditism in this line? I have not shocked to my knowledge the environment in any way... I will update with a Picture -- and there are plenty of actually female flowers showing...Final update - plant is 100% female, no signs of even being hermaphrodite.
Thanks for everyone's feedback on the situation. I found a cool chart that best exemplifies this situation...Just keep your eye on it, it doesn’t look like sacs to me though
