I had a light go out on me. I have 2. I think it stressed out of my girls. I think they look hermie, and in doing so, turned them all hermie. I DO NOT want to harvest now but I don't want these to turn into full blown seeds. I have been fertilizing and using Molasses so it "could" just be big resign saks. Please tell me what cha think.

I didn't see any male pods. Those look just like swelled up seed pods. Hopefully they aren't swelled up with real seeds.

Hermie, notice the ball (pod) sitting there, you can see female flowers above hermie 100%

100 % female notice the white pistols coming out

I hope this comparison helps

Thanks for the responses. I'm gonna keep a close eye on em for the next couple of days and HOPE that the pods don't turn to seeds. Has anyone else seen this type of problem before and does anyone think this is actually seeds? Thanks again for any responses.
 
yall are straight up dumb if u cant tell that those are seeds from looking at those pics... and for the dude who posted those pics (weedler).. i hate those pictures, they are everywhere and those pics are a horrible way to identify herms..

once your plants go into flower and turn herm, there is so much plant material that unless you inspect your plant for like an hour a day and look for male flowers (which can sometimes be so small its impossible to find) the only way to tell is to inspect the bud sites

once male flowers come in, they will produce pollen, which lands on the pistils..

the little bud pellet that the pistils are coming out of (the pistils that were just pollenated) is then "infected" with pollen, which will produce a seed on the inside of the bud pellet... swelling it up

if you have ever seen an actual bud pellet THAT swollen (in his pics).... then you're trippin
 
you are always supposed to harvest immediately at the first site of an abundant amount of "infected" bud sites.. which is what has happened to splatter..

if splatter would have noticed these balls earlier, the pollen would not have had as much time to spread, and you would have at least gotten a little bud..

in this case, too much time was allowed, which in turn might have ruined the entire crop..

if you don't harvest at the first site of pollen, EVERY SINGLE BUD PELLET/BUD SITE (the things at the base of the pistils..... the bud that u smoke...) will get "infected", leaving you with an entire plant filled with seeds

THE ONLY PLANT you would have had to cut down early is the one that was the actual herm... there could have been only one herm in the room but because you let it go it infected all of them...

you can pull a herm out of a room that has already been pollinated a tiny amount and save the entire crop

Females can self seed. And depending on when they start to seed is a major factor on when to harvest (on time or right away).

sooo... couple a questions. If i squish all the seeds, (their mostly GOOO inside) and I let it grow, will I get more bud? I have also started the Gravity IMMEDIATELY so they will stiffen up. I found the plant responsible for the seeds. Now that i have removed the plant, will the "female" plants with seeds grow male pollen saks and continue to spread or will they just be females with seeds? hhhheeeellllpppp PLEASE!! thanks again all.

Because, seed has already been produced, therefor it wouldn't make much difference. besides, by squishing them you are damaging resin glands as well as the calyx. I can give you some advise though.

Once it goes to seed, you only have two real options, harvest it right away. Or just let it go. Squishing all the seeds?! What were you thinking?

From the pictures, you have a large amount of seeds. Depending on the different strains, they might be fantastic seeds. It almost sounds like you had a full blown male in the grow room and didn't catch it. If so, the seeds could be really good. I say let it go and hope they are good seeds. Back in the day, the only pot you could get was full of seeds. You did need to smoke more than the stuff people grow now, but don't kid yourself, you could still get higher than a kite. People have the mistaken assumption that pot with seeds won't get you high. That is not true. My last seed project, where I got 600 seeds off of two small plants, after I dried and cleaned out all the seeds, the leftover pot wasn't that bad. It was really good for making brownies.

Just some info if you want to use Penetrator and reverse (yes, you have to have both to make it work)

You spray the day you are putting into flowering mode, then one more application a week later. This is by far one of the most amazing products i have ever discovered. I didn't believe the allegations were true, but it proved me wrong.

Save up and get some, you will not regret it.

Especially if you have nothing but self pollenated seeds.
