I jus went up to water my plants,

they are 2 weeks 5 days into flower,


they are all showing female flowers,

but i think one has gone hermi,

ive been "picking balls" from the lower knodes for a few days,

i didnt know if they were female or male pre flowers,

but i didnt wna risk it ,

so i pikked them

all of my plants are female and flowering nicely

i jus went up to water them and i spotted an open flower,

at first i thought it was a small leaf

as i touched it,
it knocked a little pollen out of it,,

i was fucking fuming and i still am

i have over 60 plants in my grow room atm

what shall i do ?

spray water on that plant (it will dampin the pollen so it dosent flow through the air and id just chop it.........u dont wana fertilize your whole garden over one plant....so mist the pollen sacks and then put a bag over it and chop it

the pollen is yellowish....just in case u maybe saw something else and this might relieve u a bit

wow thats a lot of plants! firstly, go through them and get rid of any males/hermies.
second, go roll a big spliff, and calm down. youv got over 60 plants, even if 2 or 3 were pollinated, youv got loads left.
you should be fine mate, good luck.

YEHA, I GOT THE SPRAY BOTTLE AND MISTED THE AIR IN THE ROOM AROUND THE PLANTS, AS TO CATCH THE POLLEN AND MAKE IT DROP TO THE FLOOR

I ALSO WATERED IT DOWN AS U SAID ,

I DID THAT ASAP,

ITS A BIG YEILD ON THIS HERMI PLANT, IT HAS TREMENDOUS AMOUNTS OF BUD SITES,,

I COULD KEEP BALL PICKING, BUT BE MORE VIGILANT ,
BUT YEH I THINK I SHOULD JUST CHOP THE MOTHER FUCKER, AND BURN IT TO HELL ON THE FIREPLACE :fire:

1) enclose herm. arm/kola/region in 1 gallon ziploc bag.

2) cut the appendage in question so that it drops into said bag.

3) seal the bag and dispose, repeat as necessary.

4) identify the origin of hermaphrodite activity:
- are you positive the seeds you purchased are feminized?
- is there a light leak into the flowering room?
- is your timer working properly and/or set to 12/12?
- have you been pushing the plants with too heavy a nutrient solution?
- were the clones you took from a plant prone to herming?
- ask the plant if this is what he/she really wants, and then refer them to a good transsexual surgeon in Thailand.
- most importantly! Vote the fuck-me plant the hell off of your 60 site island!!!

how long did you veg for? if it was a couple weeks it may be worth more to start over with clones and sacrifice the month of electricity.

Spraying with water and removing is all you can do. Shut off your ventilation system/fans while doing it to not spread any loose pollen. If you're really concerned (which, it seems you are: sixty plants is a lot to be concerned about) you might want to clear all the plants out of the room and scrub that shit down! Like every crevice, nook and cranny. Once pollen gets in it likes to linger...for a freaking eternity.

Get some dutch masters reverse and spray your plant following the directions on the bottle. This stuff will kill any pollen that has been released and stop the polenated females from seeding. Never tried myself but have heard a lot of good things

i think i may of been over feeding nutes to this specific plant during the start of flowering,

maybe about 1-2ml to much per litre of water,

I SHUT OFF THE OSCILATING FANS AND INTAKES, I HAVE PUT A SUCTION DUCT INTO THE ROOM, AND WEAVED IT IN AND OUT OF THE PLANTS, ( THIS SUCKS TO THE OUTSIDE,)

HOPEFULLY IT WILL get rid of the fucking pollen,

i cant remove the plants from the room,

i litteraly have no space to put them all

im gna chop the mother fucker after covering it in a sealed bag,

and im gna burn this shit to hell :'(

ill keep u posted an let yall know if they all turn to seed,

thanks alot for you help ppls

btw

i JUST SPARKED A FAT SPLIFTA TO CALM DOWN,,

IM GETTIN MELLOWER BY THE TOKE...... :shock::?:spew:
