Hello all, May i please get your feedback on my plants. I copy and pasted my latest entry from my grow journal. See image links at the bottom. Thanks!!!

excerpt from my latest entry in my Grow Journal: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/168292-white-widow-closet-grow-hydro.html


Day 45: hermies??

Checked on plants today - 2 of my plants are showing signs of hermies i think. I took higher quality pics (See for yourself)

Bought 3 White Widow feminized seeds from (Seedsman Bank)
- 2 plants showing signs of Hermie (seed pods at nodes)
- 1 plant looks all female (no signs of seed pods yet)

I do not want to destroy my hermies, because I believe I can still get bud from them (w/ seeds though :(

However, to combat the hermie, I did some research and there is a product called Dutch Master Reverse which is suspose to stop the male growth on the plants. If used properly, it seems from reviews that this product works. You combine it with Penetrator, and then spray the leaves with the solution. 10 days later, reapply.

I'm over 2 weeks into flowering, starting on my third. I hope I can catch this in time before the plant gets worse.(should be receiving products next week) I plan to pick whatever pods I can reach with tweezers. I do not want to destroy my hermies, I can still smoke the bud, right? (even with alot of seeds?)

See pics of flowers and see for yourself, what do you think? (sorry I could not attach, pics too big for rollitup, please visit my imageshack link)

every one of those pictures is a male plant in full frikkin bloom man. if you had females youd have all white hairs. you have all clusters of grape looking balls there. if you have any female in that room , then you need to kill every plant in those pictures. dont get it twisted the male pollen WILL DESTROY the rest of your plants....once that shit gets blown around any females you have are gonna be sooo knocked up it will be 90%seeds and 10% smokable ganja....i know it sucks spending time and money growing males but youll have better luck next time hopefuly. get rid of em......those are way way far into flowering. they needed to be removed yesterday man.
this pic is what a female looks like

I agree. I see giant sacs of pollen going wild. It's time to take them to the execution chamber if you ask me...

I don't understand, I bought feminized seeds (White Widow feminized from Seedsman sold by The Attitude)... how could they be full male? There are white hairs coming out of those pollen sacs.. could they be hermies?

Im a little upset.. 1st time grow, spent almost 2grand into this.. and possibly 2 out of my 3 plants are no good... :(

I ordered 12 white widows female seeds from cannibisseeds.com. fast delivery, packaged right. hand selected supposedly. Now, I start out growing two female plants from the ww. i had a third plant that i took a seed from a bag of my friends really good weed, and took the chance. The (outsider) became male and infected the two other plants and there were so many banannas growing i couldn't see how buds were going to grow, the flowering cycle got so far into it.... i think it was unable to produce. So i was like alright i got seeds left, I'm going to vacuum the shit outta everything wipe down everything start from scratch. I started growing a female white widow by itself. This guy was definitely white widow, or should i say gal, and i called it re-re cuz it grew 3 flowers and the 3rd one looked like a gimp right hook :) Anyway the plant is growing fine, there were no signs of anything pointing to be male or anything but female. But when it started flowering and sprouting like crazy... i see the banannas coming out, with which looks like a bud on top of the two sacks on each branch. The plant is still gaining strength, leaves are a lil weak so i'm doing the string thing. But, am i going to go through the same thing as before? Have this thing grow another foot or two and it just all be banannas? What gives? I made this place spotless, air dried for a week like we redid the entire apartment. So how the hell does my 3rd seed from this place seem to be hermie, or maybe they really fucked up and gave me all male (i really doubt it with reputation). Does bud still grow up to a 50/50 with banannas and weed? Anyone have thoughts? questions?
