Just put my 2 plants into flower right befor vacation. Came back 1 of the plants were male and the other seems female. I think the male plant may be trying to pollinate the female because there are seeds forming on the female. There are all white hairs budding, so i can tell its female but dont know if it will still produce more budds after i remove the male or just keep producing seeds??:weed:

It will continue to produce bud. As long as there's no more pollen it will not produce any more seeds than what is already there.

you should have moved that male.. a long time ago. unless you cross pollinated on purpose? do you have some good strains and are excited about the combo?

Well when i left for vacation i had a buddy that had no clue what he was doing and didnt know how to tell if they were male or female. So i figured its only the 1st week of flower and i wouldnt even really be able to tell if they were male or females, then all the sudden there is 1 plants with all hairs and a little bit of seeds and the other plants with all seeds and a male cola looking thing at the top.

I barley touched the seed pouches today becuase they looked like they were opening up and trying to fall off. Then all the sudden this yellow pollen like stuff sprinked out of the pollinated area???

Sorry boys. Computer problems, but yes yellow pollen fell from the pollinated area. Dont know if that can cause more of a spread of pollinated areas or what?

i would just let that acts of nature take their toll. Document it and then harvest it. Some African ganja farmers actually keep males in the garden to seed the bud so they can have an abundance of seeds for their next season, and to increase weight for more money (they be broke). and you can smoke the bud and i bet it will be good.

The bud will work but it wouldn't make my cut. I only smoke Sensi bud unless things are bad. That plant has bad genetics. you can salvage some seeds but they will all have the tendency to hermi. Destroy them is my advice after harvest.

The strain is decent. Its beasters but grade A beasters forsure. So it will be some ok budd. The male plant was removed way too late in my book, my buddy ruined it for me. The male was in the room with the female for about a week during the begginning of flower.
