Is this girl turning into a hermaphrodite?
Attachment 279986
hopefully you can see it clearly enough...it's the little yellow banana like part...I don't know about you, but I don't play that way. Now my question is, I have cloned this girl before I started flowering her, do you think the only reason why it turned is from stress? I hope so, because it produced alot of quality bud so far. I'll keep ya all updated with the decendants.
Yup. That's a hermie for sure.
Can hermies not be smoked? Whats the big problem with hermies? Sorry for the n00b question.
You can smoke a hermie, but it is this precious pollen that can produce 'feminized' seed, that's why it's a big deal. Look into the threads on advanced tech., use the search engine, and there are NO n00b questions, just the same questions we asked, only earlier.
I've read that it's not unusual for buds to have stray male flowers towards the end of flowering.
I would remove them so they don't contaminate other plants but the bud is still as good as it ever was in my opinion.
May be remove them before they open up...
Ah, yea, they're definitely contaminated and should be destroyed.
The safest way is pack them up and send them to me.
Its definitely maphfing out. But it looks like good bud. I'm curious if its just possible to just remove the nutsacks as they sprout preventing pollen release. I have two that are starting to maphf but they were from bud that had hermied so I knew it could because they were seeds from dispensery bud that had seeds. Either way just harvest it before the seeds become too mature to smoke, unless you want them for planting.. you also run the risk of pollinateing your other plants so be careful and don't spread polling with handeling or fans.
I harvested it, I didn't want it to pollinate the rest of my crop...oh well. It was suppose to be New York City Diesel, but of course it didn't turn out that way, so I'm ordering more seeds from a different company this time. Just sent the check to The Attitude for some Jack the Ripper....Cross your fingers for me that they'll be a better crop.
Sorry to hear about your situation. if you are considering buying seeds Serious Seeds is the tits! They have been working with the same strains since 1994 and they are all about quality.
I have had nothing but great results. the only disapointment was Chronic. Everything else was amazing. AK-47 was and still is my favorite strain of all time. Resin was so thick it looks like it might
be mold...it wasnt though, it was resin...and it was f*cking epic.
