Those pods look similar to male flowers so you may need to pluck them off as you find them. Definitely keep an eye on them.
Yes, when you flip lights and as the plant starts growing pistils, this is when hermaphroditing shows up if it decides to. It's not caused by your veg lighting. It's just a lifespan thing, like after the plant hits "puberty" and starts being a fruiting adult female.
This is is happening to a lot of us lately.
Where did you get this plant?
Clone or seed?
Is this bagseed?

Wait a couple days if no hair and looks like a pod ball instead of a taco looking thing

The best way to tell to is there a mini stem under the pod it’s most likely a male

I think it is a Hermie you will know within the week most likely

do you mean if the pod is growing on a mini stem or if a mini stem is growing behind? Because I can confirm I've seen a couple pods growing on a stem.

The advice here has been amazing. Thank you all.
thing is this is my first ever grow. Truth is I'm am tired of dealing with dealers....lol no pun intended.
the plant that I am worried is a hermie has always been my 'Experimental' plant. It comes from bag seed that I got from a friend.
I did buy some 'proper' seeds direct from Dinafem and have been growing in tandem with the unknown strain. My fear is contamination of the plant I know to be 100% female. I have already separated the plants but logistically this is not a indefinite solution as my grow space is limited as it is.
my question is can I remove all the pods I see now and carry on as usual or do I just take the decision to completely bin the plant and just be satisfied that my mainlining has been a success and take the knowledge gained and apply to the next grow?

Just some more pics. Despite the potential setback looming I'm stoked with my progress. It's all due to guys like you who comment and post and hours of research 😉
Many thanks.

Chris, here's what happened to me: I had a plant hermie and I didn't realize it; it was growing with 3 other plants. They all got pollinated and I had some seeds, mostly immature, at harvest time. And because I didn't know, I got some pollen in my other grow box, and had some seeds in there. And then because I forgot to scrub down the other box after the grow was over, I got more seeds on my next grow! It only happened to one plant, so I conclude that there was some pollen left on the wall.
Point is: if you let her grow, you'll have to relentlessly pinch off pollen sacs in order to avoid getting pollen all over the place. It's a gamble. If it were me, I'd pull her/him.

Those pages helped me the most, if you do have a Hermie you can get the male sacks wet and tweezer them off and hold a paper towel underneath the pod when pulling them and turn off all air circulation to stop the pollen from spreading it’s how I did my first grow

Hey guys
So if thought I'd just drop an update and how I have proceeded.
The general consensus was to wait a while before I made any decisions.
I think the plant is a hermie. I have removed alot of the under foilage along with about 15 or 16 seed pods?.?.?
I've left four/five nodes from the top and have examined extensively and have found no seed pods.
I've made the decision to separate the plants and just deal with the difficulties. I'm hoping still for a successful harvest.
Thanks again for all your advice and unfortunately I am no closer to identifying what it is I am exactly growing. Hoping for a good surprise.
