Please tell me this is Not a Hermi...

Discussion in 'First Time Marijuana Growers' started by TAMJ, Sep 2, 2019.

  1. Evening folks!
    My most beautiful girl just presented with beautiful pistles and then I find these today. They are very small white, what looks to be flower buds. Can someone tell me what these are?
    And... if it is, can I save it? The little buds have not opened. I caught them but they’ll open soon if they are flowers. The seeds we’re feminized.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated. TAMJ

  2. Could be a swollen calyx could be a calyx w/ a seed growin.. If there’s only two and your worried about it you can always pluck one and dissect it (away from your room wash hands after) or pluck em both to be safe.

  5. Light leaks don’t cause hermies. It’s probably bag seed or bad genetics.

  6. I beg to differ, but bad genetics is also possible.

  7. you could try sniping them male flowers off the plant if theres only a few,,but also it looks like a few of the male flowers could be growing amongst the female flowers if that the case id scrape the plant ( true hermie),,id only snip the male flowers off if they were not growing amongst the female flowers ,,,,mac,

  8. where i grow in the room its not really light tight ,,but never had a plant hermie on me in 18 years or more growing,,,,its usually the breeders fault not using stabilized genetics ,,so they always say its the growers fault or light leaks ..mac,

  9. yes without a doubt the biggest culprit of causing a herm is bad genetics

  10. If light leaks caused hermies, then plants would not grow outside .

  12. I get late seeds and I still have no idea why. My neighbors have plenty of lights on. But I don't see early males or herms. I get a few seeds late and the buds are dense af. So I don't know if it's plants doing it. We do get wind. Can other plants pollinate weed? We do get wind. I have read that if you push your plants late you will get seeds. I don't do that. I run most of my girls till around breeders numbers. My last run I had no issues and with the sun fin a little early. Plus I was using overgrow which says it speeds up grows.

  13. Hey Papa,

    I’m hanging in there. I get seeds on the tips of a few buds too. That’s just the survival mode of the plants. I believe they are supposed to be feminized as well. I have a few from Rainmaker I should try since the mother is flowering outside due to mites so I’ll lose those Genetics

  14. Is there any possibility it can be saved or is the bud going to be any good at all? Seriously, I’m a noobie and this is my first grow from seed and my best plant. I understand it’s the chance you take but this sucks. Sigh...

  15. just keep taking any male pods off as soon as you see them forming ,,its a pisser to do every day but with one plant you should be about to do it ,unless it does turn out full hermie( lots of male pods growing out of female flowers) then id scrap it ,mac,,,
     
  16. Thank you for answering me, I truly appreciate it. I’ll keep picking. Fingers crossed I’ll be able to keep it under control. What did they say in Jurassic Park? Nature always finds a way...Sigh...

  18. Hate to bother, but I pulled two of the pods off of the plant and as suggested, I took them out of the room and cut them open, expecting either white flowers or polen, or a seed. None of the above. This is what they looked like. What do you think they are?

None of the above. This is what they looked like. What do you think? (Trying to figure out how to post the additional photos). Can’t figure it out. But it’s just plant matter in the pods. No pollen , no seed, no white flower. There looks like there may be a pistle in it.
    Your opinion is greatly appreciated.
