Hey everyone so I’m in a rut did an outdoor run last year as usual. Northern Ontario. Grown in my backyard 4 years now. Im wondering what the chances of hemp pollinating my plants. Are all 14 of my plants that were put out and in diffent areas of my backyard got seeded. And I don’t think it was due to hermi I pay a lot of attention to them. And has most of them inside as well with no issues. I do have neighbours checked all em out on the block three on each side and same behind I know 3 others grow in our area. I checked everyone around me for males this year and asked around no one had any It is bush and private property’s around. Just getting frustrating and don’t wanna waist time if it’s gonna happen again. I know cannabis pollen can pollinate like a km or more just didn’t have the issue before.

A back yard grow can be susceptible to light bleed from a house, porch light etc.

Don't know if that's what happened to you, but it's something to consider.

sorry all when I read what I’m asking it doesn’t make sense. It’s just frustrating to think I can’t grow outside in my backyard. When I always have in previous years I found it strange it just happened twice, I grow quite a fair bit and also some breeding and have for awhile iv just never had issues with cross pollination I mean I pull/ kill herms all the time never let one go to pollinate my plants unless intended but still never outdoor. Not all my plants were pollinated tho 14 were and 3 not a single seed but the 3 that didn’t I forced flower early by sticking them in the garage blacked out at night and back outside following morning
