would also be leary of using any seed from the hermie as you may run into the same problem in future grows but would definetly try to remove all male pollen balls from that plant before they released pollen seeing how you only have 2 plants if you had alot more would probably remove it from the room.
Thanks for the info. It hadn't occured to me that it might actually be dangerous to cut the stuff into useable sizes myself. I had read that when dry it would be irritating to the skin in a manner like fiberglass insulation, but had failed to follow that through to it's logical conclusion. All in all, it's likely that it'll be better more me to buy it precut, but I shall see if I can find anything that will teach me how to properly deal with it when cutting it for one's self. If I can't then I'll not bother with it. If I do find something that will show me how I'll decide from what it says if it's a good idea for me to fool with it.
Tommygirl Reviewed by Tommygirl on . Rasafrasin'...Hermi Question Ok, I've just discovered that my large, female, White Widow is actually a hermi. I don't care about the pollen that it could produce, because I've been pollenating both my girls with the male that I have. My concern is whether or not it having gone hermi means that it will fail to produce THC as a proper female will, or if it's going to be fine. If developing mature, male flowers will keep it from producing THC as it should, will plucking the balls off before they mature prevent too much Rating: 5
