help! orange dots and seeds 5 wks flowring

hey i am 5 wks into flowering using 6 40 watt full spectrum bulbs. i water every few days and have been using the fox farms schedule on feedings. this is my first grow and i am shocked i have made it this far. this is a cheap closet grow. i just noticed a few seeds coming on my buds and i am 5 wks into flowering...what do i do? will this affect my other 2 plants? should i move it from the area? i am also noticing small specs of orange coloring on the leaves of my plants. can anyone help me? what will happen if i continue things like this for another 2-3 weeks till harvest. does 2-3 weeks sound about right to harvest from the last pic? thanks

more pics

spots look like mite damage or maybe mold??? Look under the leaves for tiny black mites and white eggs.

Are there lots of seeds? A few can pop up from stress, but if you have a hermie it'll pollinate everything. Look for male flowers. Do a google image search if you're not sure what to look for. If you find male flowers, get rid of that plant asap.

those kinda look like insect bites(thrips). have you looked very very closely at your leave to see if tiny bugs are on it. you really have to look closely and around the plant

i looked very close and flipped over leaves and couldnt see anything. there are a few leaves that have more of a brown spots too. do you think i will make it till harvest? also if anyone can throw in more on those seeds that would be great. these is only like 2 buds on one plant that has seeds but they are in clumps. what will happen if they pollinate my plants? i am looking to harvest in a few weeks and would hate too loose a plant. thanks

First off check your PH both before watering and what the runoff is. Second I wish you could highlight theses "seeds" cause I think I'm blind enough not to see them. What I see look like resin pods but if you are that concerned then move it away from others (preferably down wind :thumbsup:) and get some sleep. One last thought, any fumes getting into room?? as in paint fumes or such. Nm just went back and looked at last pic ..... that my friend is a Hermie. Your choice on what to do with it but if it was me :chainsaw:

will i still get a high from smoking a hermie? no fumes coming in. ph seems high like around 7.5 to 8. will this pollinate my other 2. do you think i could hack this plant and smoke it?

Yes bob, you will still get high from smoking a hermie. It's still weed, it's just a genetic freak, a she-male, a transsexual. That's why it has seeds, because its boy parts are jizzing on the adjacent female parts.

If you truely have a full-blown flowering herm and it's in the same room with other females, it has already pollinated them, chances are good you'll find a few beans in every plant. Never fear, you'll still be high.

The orange dots, I wouldn't worry about it anymore. Let the plants go a couple more weeks. If it's only on the leaves and the flowers look fine, go with it... You won't be smoking the leaf anyway. ;) Relax

thanks. this is my first grow and i have been going crazy waiting till harvest! cant wait to start my next batch with some good seeds i have. i have some feminized BC big bud!

I hear you on the going crazy part... This game takes a LOT of patience man.... Seriously, when you think they're ready to chop, wait 2 more weeks. Some sativas require 12 - 14 weeks to reach optimum potency :)

Are you still feeding them nutes? You'll want to stop about 2 or 3 weeks before you plan to chop and start flushing them with plain water up until the chop. You'll force the plant to use up all the nitrogen in the leaves and buds, which in turn will make the buds taste and smell better once they're dried and cured.

i actually stopped feeding nutes last week since i thought the orange dots were a nutes over feed. i will prolly feed them again and see what happens.

If truly concerned with your ladies health, fill out the troubleshooting form as completely as possible. These guessing games take time, and 'guessers' can actually kill plants with inappropriate advise. :jointsmile:

that is a hermy, i heard that you can clip the male sacks off just like castration and it should be fine, just do it away from other plants in case you bust the pollen sack

That looks very familiar to me, the leaf spotting. Dark green with the dots. Initial thoughts of course spider mites or thrips. No sign of bugs, consider MG/CA deficiency. Like Rusty says, fill out the form. What is PH?

I had a similar appearing problem, was mg/ca def and low ph combination, it is cured with the addition of the mg/ca and keeping PH 6.5-7
