This is a clone from a plant that went hermaphrodite on me, and aparently, it has become it's genetic, rather, it has been its genetic trait to be a hermie.... I give up on this one, and it sucks complete ass that my new grow room is now contaminated with EFFING POLLEN!!!! Someone mail me some weed killer, I'M MAD!
This really bites, because 6 of 8 plants in my room are clones from that damn hermie! So....I might as well let em flower, whatever.... I'm disgusted. At least I'll have fruity loops flowering when these are ripe. I think LIP told me the chance that this is a genetic trait is like, .01% or something. Lucky me. Two of these clones in the room at the same time, and both have "bananas"
natural course of plants , I had 2/5 females this grow , it's all good thought.Those plants look so killer though bro, awesome buds.
I'm going to do my best not to disturb those plants, so I don't get a shite load of pollen. When it comes time to harvest, they'll be CAREFULLY taken downstairs and pruned. I'm tired of getting seeds! This is my first grow experience, and I started all this around June I think. I've got some good candidates for replacing this damn hermie though. Have some super skunky plant cloned 16x, and I've got 6 freshly sprouted fruity pebble plants. The strain isn't actually called fruity pebbles, and it's real name is unknown. Thanks for the compliment though, I'm doing everything to the best of my abilities. You wouldn't want to know how much money I've spent since may......ridiculous. Here's a pic of the whole room.
Tedious work, but, I cut off all visible bananas today. Tomorrow, I'm gonna go back in and do some more meticulous pruning. May stunt the growth, but I think it's worth it to cut the pollen out of my girls's diets.
I did the same in taking bananas off a hermie i had last year. It worked to a certain extent but when the bud gets thick you wont be able to get the male flowers. If you keep at it daily you can get sensimelia but its tedious. It might be a good idea to seperate them because the last thing you want is dry pollen [ even one flower ] it can ruin your crop! If you do move them make sure u put a bag over the plant before you move it.
Also you have a lot more male flowers than i did. Id save what i can m8.
I'll try this question again. How long does the pollen from a pot plant last? I've heard a month, or a couple months, but it's probably longer. Someone please fill me in!
