hi all i just finished up my first grow and i had a hermi in there. i got it out at about 2 weeks into flower. and ended up with seedy bud(about 10-15 seeds per plant).i have now learnt to spot the hermi/male and have destroyed the hemi's cuttings .now all my babies for this grow are showing fem pre flowers

so my question is how much % of bud did i lose to seeds. because i only got just over half a gram per watt i also had a little spider mite trouble but thx to some ladybugs they are gone

thx in advance fenster
 
10-15 seeds is marginal, I would have to say you lost less than 1% of your bud to seeds. here's a way to be sure, and I'm sure your not interested in doing this, but go ahead and count all the calax's from all the bud you got from one plant, Then find what percentage of that number equals 15. I'm sure its low. Every calax that grows white hairs has the potential to be pollinated and grow a seed.
 
Its really difficult to say.. simply weigh 10-15 seeds and times that by the number of buds then subtract from the overall weight?

It isnt difficult to miss the odd male bit occasionally so don't take it personally, sometimes a small amount of stress can turn it and be very difficult to spot.
