Actual White flowers?

So I have a current grow going and the initial 7 are just starting their 6th week of flower.

Out of this first batch there are another 15 clones that just came out of week 3 of flowering. Two of the clones seem to have physical white flowers? They're all confirmed females and at 3 weeks are budding very nicely.

I've never seen physical flowers on any of my past plants. I've tried searching all types of things to find photos and posts on this but can't.. did it turn hermie? I've never flowered a male long enough to know if that is what maturing male flowers look like.

Any advice is greatly appreciated

I am working on that right now.. Just trying to find the best flash and shutter setting to get it clear enough.

Well I guess its just hermie. If you tear the male flowers off as they grow and don't let them open, will that likely keep any pollination from happening? Obviously if there is no flower to open and pollinate you would think that would/could be true.

I did cut 5 extra clones in case anything happened to the main batch, but I hate the thought of losing these two beauties.

Has anyone kept a hermie and stayed diligent about its male flowers and removing them just as they form throughout the grow duration? I tore every male flower and pre flower off last night. Sorry guys i've just never had a hermie nor flowered a male long enough to see its flower open.

yes i tried but it is very hard to catch them all and thats all you need is one but i was in my 3rd week and didnt want to kill them but i did miss one or two and it pollinated my females i havent harvest yet but im sure i lost a lil bud production and will have a few seeds but atleast the will be feminized and i can use the for my next grow..good luck tough call trust me know

One odd thing I should point out is these seemingly "hermies" did not show these male pods until literally 4 days ago. The mothers these clones came from also do not have any pods on them.

Well its confirmed.. One of the Papaya plants is now growing seeds. I combed through the flowers in now what is nearly the end of week 6 flower and have seen the seeds.

Only a few of the flowers have a single seed or two embedded in them. Should I just harvest at the end of week 6? I've never encountered a male pollinating my females. I know bud production mostly halts now so I'm wondering if its in my best interest to just cut it down. I've not spotted any seeds in any of the haze19xskunk#1 plants as of yet.

Ideas, thoughts?

Yo i dont kno but it jus got white all over jus gonna let it grow to see what happens
The white are the pistils..... Tiny white hairs that along with the calyxes make up the female cannabis plants bud.... it's female. the guy saying it's a hermie is either seeing something I can't or he is just a dumb ass who is spouting off his dick beaters.....

I dont see anything wrong. cannabis has lots of different smells, pine being one of them :) BB

Thanks just wanted to make sure good looking got ne good places where i can get good seed those were old and maybe the lows
You in the usa? seedsman has good deals. herbies, attitude seeds...... southern oregon seeds is usa based but he is running low on stock right now. ossc does good but both ossc and seedsman are based in spain, with this honey badger virus shit is taking forever or they have stopped business for a bit. there are lots of good places

Here are the pictures.. As you can see she is a stout fat bud producing little clone.. Just a shame..

The third picture clearly outlines the flower itself with white pedals.
Lookup powdery mildew, your leaves seem to have it.

I agree. Looks like little white patches on the leaves in his 2nd pic.


And this pic is most Definately a male flower.

Anyone who says cannabis does not have white flowers has never seen a real male flower lol.

I like to donate some of the extra packs of seeds I purchase or come as freebies from time to time. Out of the just over 70 packs I’ve donated out over the past 4 years, all but 1 landed, and unfortunately, he had regular issues with package theft.. I’d prefer to send to an address other than your residence to help with anonymity and security, so if your interested, shoot me a pm and I’ll get my seed stash out tomorrow when I swing by the op, and shoot ya a little menu to choose from!
