So this is my first grow ever and i have successfully started to flower 4 beautiful females so far and 5 males, I'm still waiting on my other 23 plants to show sex and out of 33 plants one started to show its pollen sacks but they where still tiny so i gave it 2 more days under my lights before i decided to quarantine it. Now 5 days into budding the pollen sacks have grown to 3 times their size when i first started to notice them....... BUT... now it has also started to shoot 4 or 5 little pistils out. So i officially have my very first hermmy plant and i have a few questions.
First off i would like to know if i take him/her outside and plant it in the ground as i have with the rest of my males that have popped their pollen sacks will it continue to produce buds and pollen sacks?
Second i am curious as to if this plant will pollenate its self and produce seeds and if so will these seeds still be 50/50 for male and female plants when they are germinated and grown?
any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Thank you all and happy late 4/20 :D hope every one enjoyed their day yesterday and toked it up for me since i am broke and only was able to burn one bowl :Pphoto-2.JPG

+ rep. Best thing you could have done. ;) I was thinking about getting/making an extra side tent just for my males for breeding purposes. beats keeping them in with the ladies until they show sex I sure know that. Hell i take enough chances as is. ;)

they are popcorn and and just some reggie seeds so i imagine the offspring of these babies will be pretty good smoke! i wasn't aware that hermits put off fem seeds?! is that true??

They put out hermie seeds, which are all female. There's a big difference dude!

And also i'm thinking if you have pollenating males outside, the millions of pollen spores will probably get on you and then in your room. Might end up with the odd seed in your bud. These seeds would be fine to grow. Just not the hermie ones!

Good luck:)

Why are you wasting time with males? the hermi you can grow and the seed that comes from it will be feminized but the bud will be mediocre to week.
Not Always true, I had herms which i had cut the balls all the way through and it still came out to be like a 7/10 on my scale. Was Hydro. Good Formation. Good Thc ( id geuss 20.00%) Good Yield. I didn't get every seed but the ones That came through were picked out very carefully. I still have those seeds years latter.
