    female with pollen sacks

    This is exactly what i have heard also. It is a female, just not to happy of one. I have heard if they are stabilized it may be savable. My unproffesional opinion is if you have enough to spare one plant get rid of it. It could ruin your whole crop. It could be your a good producer. Its a risk.

I know they say not to dump that much ph adjuster but if i didnt the ph might leave the normal scale and become its own type of acid. I dont know what is going on. i am getting...
