So I found a male about two weeks into flower... I thought I got it out before it shot sperm everywhere but I guess I was wrong because starting a couple weeks ago everything I'm harvesting now has varying degrees of seed development and seeding. So I have some plants about 3-4 weeks into flower now... hope they are not already pollinated as well... what do you do to get rid of the pollen? soap and water? what to do... I almost wanna chop everything in flower and start over.

All good info but bleach isnot necessary, a tap water wash and COMPLETE dry before fems re-entering is all that is required.

I had a regular TGA Dairy Queen I kinda hoped would be a male and was reading on how to collect pollen and sex some of the girls with it to get some seeds.
Turned out to be a female but...
I've read Male pollen only stays active a few weeks so I think you would be safe without a room scrub.
A clean room is a healthy room though. I clean mine after every harvest.

A wash with dilute mild dish soap (like Ivory) or "Safer" bug spray (also a soap) should work quite well. Wet pollen dies fast, and soap makes pollen real wet. cn
