Emerald Jack from feminized seed with little to no stress, need some more experienced input as I have had this with another grow and it turned out good with no seeds or shit like that. Before I destroy it I would like some assurance its fucked as it is a very nice and healthy plant.IMG_0198.jpgIMG_0200.jpgIMG_0199.jpg Wont let me rotate the pics...sorry!!

Do you have other female plants in close proximity? I haven't had a plant herm on me, but if I did, I wouldn't kill it if it was all I had; bud with seed is better than no bud at all :bigjoint:

Well I have this and another kush thats about the same size and some clones also from this plant. Several other fems from the same batch of seeds too, dont know what happened because I abused my previous grow twenty times worse and only a hint of this same deal. All I did was rip off what was there and it turned out fem all the way to bud before, this time I cant take the chance as I have more plants, more money and bigger plans involved. Figure I cut er down then?

Vache it probably came from the ET promo from attitude a while back.

some herms are manageable and just require you to pluck off a few balls here and there.

killing it was probably safest though.



at least you arent one of those dumb people that want to breed with hermie pollen :p

There's a big difference between a few nanners on a plant that is almost done flowering and one that shows male and female traits from the get. There is no way to control something like that you would have seeds galore. I don't even see anything that resembles a female preflower from the pics it looks like a total male. This one isn't worth it IMO, kill it.

Seeing as you had other plants, it was probably for the best. Did this sprout from a feminized seed?
Yeah I bought 10 fem seeds from Vancouver Seed Bank, this thing was rockin full fem until two days ago....Ive been growing it for a couple months or longer. My plan was to use it to practice cloning and I did manage 5 or so out of 10-15 attempts. This pic is of a Kandy Kush that sprouted at the same time....now Im all paranoid about this one goin all funky because I want to flower it in a week or two along with some smaller ones.IMG_0209.jpgIMG_0208.jpgIm leaving it outside to be safe and this brings me to a question.....if I just cut the growth down for more clearance in my box how badly will it affect the plant? Its already 35 inches and I have 68 inches of ceiling in my box minus the pot height so I wanna shorten it up.:confused: Pics wont stay vertical.....fuckin iphones!

Thanks all for the reassurance , I hacked it down and I must admit it was a bit of a downer!
