Are these pollen sacs? Because this plant has already trolled me with bobbles that then spat out white hairs. I'm still a noob - eviltoast

[Edit: I’ll cut down this plant today. It’s the smallest of 3. Thanks for the feedback!]

    Looks like it, but it’s been a good while since I’ve been around actual plants.

    Could be a hermaphrodite. I’ve had those and ended up having to cull them. Not only can they self-pollinate, they can pollinate any others you have too.

    It’s been forever, though, so maybe someone else can confirm/deny my opinion.

      It is hard to say. Sometimes hybrids only have a few pollen sacs, if you can remove all them you will be fine.

      But most of us would just cut it to be sure, you have two more plants. It’s a tough choice.

        , if you can remove all them you will be fine.

        Just have to be very careful not to let any of them break and to wash very thoroughly before touching any other plant, but yeah.

    That’s a great example of an intersex plant. I’m in the minority when I say that it’s not a big deal. Cut em, be careful, but I wouldn’t destroy this plant over it. The pollen will get neutralized with water so wipe down your tent between cycles
