I need help today. Plant seems to have alot of pollen

[newbeegrow]

Ok so I have a few plants in the 9th week of flower. Most look fine but I have one that seems to have very tiny yellow flowers and seems to have alot of pollen. She still has white pistils and only cloudy trichomes She is in a soil grow with a 400 wt metal halide. I am worried that she is trying to go to seed. If I pinch off a tiny yellow leaf/flower there seems to be alot of pollen in her. I do not smoke weed nor have I ever seen a full grown plant and I do not know if this is normal. This is my first grow. please tell me what to do. I dont want to mess up now. I am posting some pics and really need advice. let me know what you think.288274288275288276288277288278

If this is your only plant, there's not much you can do. This is what's called hermaphroditism, when a female plant starts to develop male pollen sacs. You can go through and pick them off with a tweezers carefully as to not dump pollen all over her. But you'll likely have seedy bud. Not the end of the world. On a positive note, seeds from a self pollinated plant will be about 90% female.

If you have more than one plant and this is the only one with this problem I would recommend cutting it now. It still a bit early for harvest but that's better than an entire crop of seeded bud. You can even pull it out and set it by a window for a week or so to let it mature just a bit more before harvesting her (err... Him?)

One of the leading causes of a plant going hermie in late flowering is light leaks. Try and make sure your grow space is COMPLETELY sealed off from any light source that could be leaking in.

Hope this helps! :jointsmile:
