Yeah, I wouldn't be too worried if the name is (peanut sundae) The ones that have gotten nanners 90% of the time I just have to inspect every day and pick them. It does affect the strength and quality when they start producing those pods though. I hate that shit.
What genetics are you running?
Right now it's Nirvana AK48. It's probably one of the gooiest strains I've grown, that includes certified badass clones. Nirvana sent me Autos by accident, I've only kept one that I topped (since I didn't know they were autos) and I found a nanner on it. So I have 3 right now and again the one that smelled the nuttiest is the one that popped a nanner. Just one nanner though. I will say that 2 are est. 3 weeks from the flush and the trichome production is already really fantastic. Yield is going to be small for what I'm used to. Probably 4 ounces for the two, and the topped one is probably 4-5 weeks from flush so her yield is more up in the air.
so instead of removing a 2nd plant I decided to pluck all of them(only lower branches mainly effected) off with tweasers and a water tray I sprayed them 1st to stop any pollen escaping and carefully plucked them off and placed in tray ... I'm hoping it stops I'm on week 5 of flower so I'm almost there just gotta scrape by I'm guessing and pray for the best ... Any other ideas of slowing it down ?
Actually, you're doing everything you can that I know of. Just try to get them before they open up. A million dollar invention would be "Nanner/pollen Killer" I wouldn't get rid of the entire plant this close to harvest though. I've picked nanners for weeks and had pretty good weed come out of it. I absolutely refuse to grow anything more than 75% Sativa unless I get it as a stable clone from a med clinic. It's pretty much a scientific fact that especially Thai Sativa's are very prone to hermie. If you want a plant with the very least chance of hermie 100% Indica is the way to go. I've grown many plants of NL and Afghan Kush and neither has every hermied.I found nanners on a plant last week I panicked and took the plant out and hoped it didn't spread.. then today I found another plant with nanners
lolol first time ever maybe some 1 is rubbing peanut butter on ya plants as some kind of dirty fetish u do not no about ??
nirvana has never given me a hermie ever must be the stress u are putting them under
I think it was my fault too my temp's we're up at 36° and humidity dropped to 20% for a day we had a crazy heat wave
Water 'deactivates' pollen. Just spritz some water in the vacinity of a nanner, and on your hands in between picking each and every nanner.
I got most of them before they opened but some had popped I seen polled dust on some leaves Bellow I'm just hoping that it's sterile and I can control it ... I'm not getting rid of any more I just gonna ride it out hopefully mines is ok too like yours
ok I'm definitely gonna avoid sativa's from here on I think
Search dutch master reverse, i have never used it before so have no knowledge on it but its advertised as a Nanner/pollen killer, thought you might be interested, good luck
Yeah that's what I did plucked all nanners I could see sprayed them 1st then sprayed entire garden with pH water ... I'm close.to the end so hopping seeds don't have time to form ... Only thing I'm worrying about is will it affect my next grow ? I have 20 stardog seedlings waiting to go into the flower room when theses are ready
It might have been because I topped an Auto other than that everything is flawless. It's all centrally controlled besides the carbon dioxide.
Good to know
