to pull or to cut??

I am stage harvesting my current crop and its been a great call.

well, in stage harvesting my plants, I noticed that after I took off a couple of strange looking fat colas at the top of the C-4, that underneath all that mass there seemed to be indications that it had turned hermie on me maybe a few weeks ago during a killer heat wave. Now that I'm looking at the buds they seem to have a bunch of unripe seeds in em....I can't really tell what I;m looking at but it doesnt look like the rest of the plants.

My question is, I cut most of the colas off the C-4 and only left 2 small branches down at the bottom in case they make seeds. But is it good smoke to smoke the top colas that might have alot of green mass in it that to me looks like unripe seeds?? Very very sticky with resin...if you touch it and then touch two fingers together, hard to pull apart....I'm thinkin it must be good smoke but maybe I should take longer to cure it?

I need pics of masses of unripe seeds...they are still squishy, could that just be the blossoms maturing?They look round, not hairy so much anymore.

The stage harvesting is going well, I'm taking the top heaviest colas first then leaving the bottom ones a week or so longer...seems to be working fine...

I have a few pics, I'll try to post or else you can go to my profile page and look at the 3 pics in the album, if that's possible....it's not public so I don't know, I think you have to be in my contact list.

BTW, the C-4 must have gone hermie very very late because it didn't go to seed, the flowers are just different looking than my other strains but still very sticky and even drying it smells great.

The Sour Diesel smells like fuel, I guess it's supposed to, and even the Silver haze smells slightly sour but huge colas, I will grow that one again. The best frutiest, nuttiest smelling plants are the ones I grew from seed that came from up around Santa Cruz, Calif.

Id say your doing fine...If they are good pull um... The looks of the lower buds wont change much. Youll have popcorn buds but they are good too:rastasmoke:

I did an out door of Sour Deisal and I dont like its taste At all:wtf: But my buddy loves it...Smelt like fuel

Great looking grow:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
