i think the pollen spread- help me please

theres one mango thats been flowering for five days and i noticed that it had a pollen sack on it so i heard that if its more female than male that you can keep on top of it if you use twezers to remove all and every one of them,well everything was going fine for a week and then one day i came in and i noticed that i must of skipped one because it had allready fallen off, now its leaning over(because there tied down) a feminized blue b.- so i guess my question is do i keep the mango in since its way more fem than mal.and keep pullin or do i pull it now. and my b.b. what becomes of that now ,will the seeds be any good or will it be a mix. thanks so much

If you get just a sack or 2, then you can pull them off.
But a buttload of ballsax, and it's a given that you WILL miss enough to get significant seeding.
The seeds off the BB will be a feminized BB x mango cross. But since the pollen donor was a full blown herm, they will likely behave the same under your conditions.

right on thank you, but just one question when you say full blown hermie,is there not a full blown hermie maybe one that can make my bbxmango not a hermie as well and if so how can i tell the diffrence.

here are some pictures so you can decide if its a full blown hermie or if my bbxmango seeds will be feminized. the 1st pic.mango on left bb on right. 2nd pic mango on left. 3rd pic is the mango

ive probably only found 9 or 10 total out of the 2 weeks its been budding

look hard for em every day or two and crush em, doesnt look outta control...keep em growing

Wow, KB, I'm glad YOU have your superman glasses on because no mere mortal could tell from those pics how 'outta control' it is.

When I log on at 5am and check the reported posts not just from the cultivation area, but from the WHOLE SITE, and 2 of the 3 are related to YOUR shitty advice and the fallout thereof, I get PISSED.

How many fucking times do I need to tell you to stop wandering around the boards handing out advice that you are in NO WAY qualified to be giving.

Next time I ban you it will be PERMANENT. Then you will have to go join ICMag, where they are more tolerant of flame wars, and the OG's over there will eat you for breakfast and shit you out as fertilizer for their outdoor grows.

The members here have been pretty patient with you so far... you're pushing your luck.

im sorry the pictures arent that close up on it, enough for you to help me out on determining if its full blown or my seeds will be okay.ill post some ones that are closer up on and inside the cola,let you see the branch nods and maybe tha will help thanks stinkyattic so much for your help.:)

maybe these will be better for you ,thanks again

I'm not seeing even a single male part.
But I do see the stumps of fan leaves... have you been snipping them? It's stressful to the plant and could lead to herms in the future.

yes i have been snipping them and i know that the more leaves the better the sugar and healthier the plants.but im just cutting the ones that are blocking alot of spectrum for the lights.probably about 2 a day for 2 weeks.i picked alot of fan leaves on my last plant and it seemed to grow perfect and allowed a lot more light to reach the buds.but i wasant aware that you could actually stress them to the point of them turning herm,just by pruning the leaves. ill make sure that i stop. and as far as my electric fruit punch is concerned (blueberryxmango) my seeds should be female. ive done my best in snipping all the pollen sacks so there was none in the picture for you to see.i just wanted to make sure that the mango wasent so bad that my bb. seeds will be herm. by your reaction my mango should be left alone and just keep a eye on it? thanks again.:thumbsup:
