OH, B*LL*CKS!!!

20 days left of flowering, theyve been great so far, just found 7-8 bollocks.
Sprayed down with water, snipped as carefully as I could and removed but 3 were already open.

What are my chances if I continue snipping everything I see from now on?

.

depends on how vigilant you are. I figure you're gonna get some seeds already, but if you can catch them before they mature the problem won't be too bad.

best of luck to you

It's not the end of the world. Chances are most of the seed will be immature and undeveloped. If worst comes to worst you got some seeds for next time plus some good weed. Potency doesn't decrease that much just because you get seeds.

.

Yeah, I know, but it spoils my plan a bit, which was to reinvest half of it in building a new room.
So far I think I've found everything, maybe 10 male flowers all in all on 3 girls, though myabe half were open...watered down then chopped. Will have to do this every day now.

Otherwise, nothing strange looking. I'm hoping only some branches will be affected, theres only 20 days left, but we'll see. They were all low down, so at least the pollen hasn't spilled straight down onto any flowers.

Still hoping there'll be enough sensi to invest in new room though. If not, oh well, I still have a load of weed for myself.

Fairthless are you growing organic? If not have you tried the Dutch Master Feminiser? Works great for me and not a hermie to be found after i started using it.

I'm doing soil but not organic nutes.
These were clones, I have two suspicions.
Maybe their mother was dodgy, and last week I slept over and missed opening the door to my room for about an hour, which makes it really hot. It probaly reached 45C for an hour, and it was recent, so thats a likely candidate. Perhaps it was a combinattion of both.

That Dutch feminiser looks interesting:

Sometimes those male flowers will only leav a few seeds, but sometimes, watch out, you will get hundreds dumped on you.

I've chopped everything I could find, a couple were only tiny, so we'll see.
The only ones that worry me are the 3-4 that were open. From now on I'll be watching like a hawk.

Ah well, it makes me a more experienced farmer, I've now had males, females and hermies, seeing them in real life is better than seeing photos.

.

I've had excellent results with the feminiser. It was reccommended to me by a very sharp hydro store owner...I spray as a foliar spray the first day I go to 12/12 and then once more on the 10th day....had several hermies prior to using it and none since.

PS He also said that if the plants do develop balls further on into flowering that they won't be able to pollinate...can't remember why.....old
