Ok so I am still on my first grow, and am now about 2 weeks into flowering. Originally the biggest plant I had grew female hairs. There were only two and they were on the lower branches. Over the past week i have been monitoring the plants and slowly culling the males as I find them. Now I only have two ladies left, and one mother which is seperated from the group. Of the two that I am flowering one is completely female with white hairs growing everywhere and the other is the aformentioned plant. My question is over the past week I have watched the biggest plant grow what I think are pollen sacs. I have done many hours of research to make sure that I sex my plants right. I wanted to make sure that this wasnt just some new growth but everyday I see more and more "balls". Today I had planned on changing the nute solution and culling the big plant figuring that is was a hermie with the majority being male. However upon closer examination I see the "bundle of grapes growing at the second internode under the bud site and it seems like the next set of leaves appears to have white hairs, although I could be wrong. Now I know you guys are gonna want pictures but due to me being a dumbass and dropping my digi camera off the side of a boat I cant provide pictures. My question is this, is this possible to cut off all of the pollen sacs and hope that I can still manage a small yield or is this too much work/risk that i could end up with the other plant that is 100% female giving me very seedy yields? I am gonna wait to see what some of the experienced growers think before I do anything because I would hate to kill a plant that could still wind up producing, however I dont want to screw up the perfectly good plant. Also how long can I wait on the big plant before the pollen sacs will open, (just like an average or best guess) Help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated
