what up!

So here is the story. I got this plant from a buddy cause he still lives at home and his parents found it...lol it had 4 seperate plants growing in it, and he gave it to me when it was all ready sexing. So I put in 12-12 and removed the males as they appeared. So I am left with just one....

now that but has seeds up the one side. does this mean its a hermie? or it got fucked up by being in a pot with other males?

I have 4 ladies of my own flowering, they are about 4 weeks in (one week behind hermie) SO HERE IS THE QUESTION...

will this fuck up my females? should I remove the hermie ASAP? or will everything be ok?

THANKS

Yeah man, unless you want your females to get pollinated, therefore producing seeds (which you dont want right?) So, unless you want
some shit that has seeds all up in it, yes get rid of it.

the pollen that is on that plant or wherever that plant was when the males pollenated it can travel long distances, especially when you put a fan on it... It would be a bad idea to keep that plant unless you have it totally secluded from your other plants, but if you can do this then why not keep it, it will produce and it probably wont be garbage,,,,, Ive grown hermies out and the bud was killer......:peace:

Its possible, pollen can travel for miles literally. If you move/moved it
before its pollen pods burst them you might still have a chance to move
it or whatever you wanna do.

I believe the hermies will pollinate your other females just like any other male plant if you don't move them to a secluded area. Can anyone confirm?

Do you always have to remove hermies from the other females or can you just let it grow?

Yes most growers generally remove hermies. The idea is to get an ALL female
crop - i.e. sinsemilla - seedless bud.

It takes the same amount of time for a hermie to appear than it takes all the others to show sex........:peace:

If you had any other females in with that hermie when the pollen was present there is a VERY GOOD CHANCE THAT THE OTHERS ARE POLLENATED,,, but you prob wont be able to tell till its too late,, but,, its all good,, just grow them out,, if the weed turns out excellent then you have more seeds for your next grow whenever that might be,,WIN, WIN... Just make sure that you clean with soap and water all around the area that has been infected with pollen before you grow again,, good luck and post some pix so we can watch.....:eyesmoke:....

he brought me the pot with 4 plants already 2 weeks into flower. When I looked at them I noticed 2 males and pulled them immedeatly. about a week later the other one showed male so I plucked it...left with the oned female in his pot.....about 2 weeks after that it developed seeds...so his plants wer all ready pollenated before coming over to my place. AND because I pulled it before any of the seed bursted I should be kool right?

I know what you mean about the WIN WIN even if i do get seeds.

Im gonna try my luck at cloning....from what Ive read I want to take it from the lower branches cause they induce rooting easier. does it matter that they are 4 weeks into flowering? thanks for your words man +rep

unless i misunderstood, your plant might be pollenated just being near the hermie you have,,,, or if the plants were pollenated somewhere else then the pollen is still on the plant and will spread....:peace:.... Now,, a hermie will have white pisils and pollen sacks coming out from between the nodes(where the branches intersect on each level of the plant)... Hope to see lots more pix izzo, there lookin like some killer bud,,, good luck on your grow...
