Wow, how did I miss that...ya dont toss her man, shes still a good girl!

Better to harvest early (Only about 1% amber) or let them go another week or so and have more seeds?

slowlickitysplit Reviewed by slowlickitysplit on 05-05-2007. Newby needs help / male or female plant here Hello everyone, I have a White Widow Plant here. It started showing the nice little white hairs about a week into flowering, and now it looks like it getting some balls coming out of the bud sites. Theres white hairs coming out of these balls, so being new to this, Im not sure if thats how the buds grow, or if its making seeds. Theres no signs of seeds on the main stems, just coming of the bud sites. So, my question is this, is it male or female ? I have 4 plants, and the other 3 are a Rating: 5

No let them finish all the way.....are you sure there are seeds? Even if there are let them finish.....resin gets better each day it stays. I like my trichs 50/50 cloudy amber....more amber....more couchlock. Clear trichs....less strong head high, no couchlock. Cloudy=right in the middle.

Like everyone else said. Nothing wrong with a few seeds, get a loupe and start checking trichomes, don't kill her; she wants to have your baby! :stoned:

And seeds don't make it any less a female.... Pocket....they're called calyxes and you are right so no insight needed. :thumbsup:

BUT....
I have clones ready to replace these seeded females. Might the clones get seeded by these seeded ladies? Are they like hermies that way?

Thanks.

Also....
Will bleach/water wash down of everything kill any remaining pollen?

Sorry.....I have a bad memory but....

How long from polination to the appearance of seeds?

How much do I owe you guys for this education? It's pricless! Thanks again everyone.

I asked how long til seeds develop, the answer I recieved was 2-3 weeks. How did the females get pregant? Did they hermie? If they were pollinated by another plant (meaning male) then they will not pollinate the new batch. They have to have balls to do that. Look for male parts on your females to see if they impregnanted themselves or not. I believe you can just spray down the plants that might have pollen on them with water to wash away the jizz. Yes, you'll want to clean your room too...probably with bleach water.

Can you keep your clones in limbo until the the others are chopped? That is what I would do. With my first grow both my females hermied and had some seeds (very little btw) but the smoke was still stellar. I seriously would NOT get rid of them being so close to harvest. If you already have one percent amber, and you have seeds forming, keep cking the trichs...they are going to be done very fast. Ck in the morning and at night. It could happen in a few hours, honestly. That has been my experience anyways.
