It depends where you are in flower when the pollen is released. If they appear during the last three weeks then no problem. There is not enough time for the seeds to develop. Same goes for the 1st week as the buds have not yet developed enough to accept the pollen so long as your remediate before they reach maturity. Those that are ~ 5 - 7 weeks from maturity will likely be lost. Pollen remains viable for months and can linger in environment. So it really depends on your timing and steps you take to get rid of the pollen. Harvest as soon as you can, remove the offending plants now, spray down any plants that are early in flower, clean the room. Your clones and mothers should be fine but you can spray them down too and clean their rooms to be safe.

Can hermaphrodites pollenate my veg plants?? i have now learned days away from harvesting that i have hermaphrodite in my flower room; big buds with a bunch of seed pods (i cant believe i didn't notice all these seeds earlier). Not seeing the signs when it happened i believe since i never experienced this before. It is the first time I am flowering this breed. I obtained it as a mother plant and made clones from it. The person i received it from says it never happened to him. After reading some posts of people with the same issue, it Rating: 5
