first time grower, big time problem!

ight, been growing my first plants since april. they grew hard and strong and are now very tall and healthy. they started to bud, about aug 10. i removed the males a few weeks prior, hoping to catch em early enough.

so everything is going good until about 5 days ago, i come home from work to water the ladies, then, BAM!, someone chopped the top 10 to 12 inches of the main stem on my smaller female, and a nice chunk about the same size, off a branch coming from the big one......:cuss:

lots and lots of bud lost, but anyway, my problem.

now i know that the plants were severely stressed because of the cutting, so know i'm worried that they may have turned hermie on me.
i got some pics from today, and this happened 5 days ago.

what i want to know is whether they turned or maybe my pot just got seed in it, and i didnt catch the males early enough, even though i'm pretty sure i did, they didnt even have pollen sacks yet.

also, is there a way to revert it back to female if it went hermie? or am i screwed. and if it went back to veggie state, how long till it starts to flower again

thanx, fuzzybear420:bigjoint:

yeah sorry about the pic quality..lol only camera i got right now.

i just checked it again, and it looks like my bud started producing alot of seeds now..i'm pretty pissed because there wasnt any, or just maybe a few before, now i got lots...:-(

are the hermies still good to smoke, like can it still turn out to be good pot just with seeds?


so is there anyway to turn it back? or am i gonna be smoking some seedy weed in about a month?

you are going to be smoking some seedy weed in about a month... the same sort of thing happened to me indoors, but hey think about it this way, seedy weed is better than no weed at all? save the seeds and grow 20 more plants next season round :)

duder i hate to be the one but i firmly believe that they did turn hermi on you i had the same issue last season thoes pods that trasformed from bud are seed pods my advice to you at this point is to start thinking about harvesting because this will only worsen to the point of where you have so many seeds in your bud that it will drive you mad...if you continue to flower remove any unaffected females so that they dont cross pollinate this to i have dealt with.. my only wonder is if seeds taken from a hermi plant will be dominantly hermi>... hummm..
hope this may help you ..

great help guys, much appreciated:eyesmoke:

i'm just soooo pissed off, i spent like half a year growing and lovin these things and someone messed everything all up...my stuff was looking realy good too. lots of crystals and everything.

i got one tiny female maybe about 2 feet tall next to the big ones, but my problem is that, i wasnt really trying to grow anything at all. the pot that my marijuana is growing in used to have a furn in it...i through mad seeds in it, and BANG! they started to grow.....i had to take like 8 plants out plus the furn, i only left the two big ones, and a tiny one. but they are all growing in the same planting pot....so i cant remove the one that wasnt damaged:-( without killing it...

i also got some pics of were the chopped my plant i'm gonna put up.




my next grow is gonna be inside, i cant wait till next year to grow again. any one know where to get good seeds cheap, that will ship to the u.s. lol

edit: i opened a sac up, and there was seed in it

sorry for the crappy pics taking pics with my cell phone camera.i tryed getting sum better pics.



listen brah, Your plants turning to "hermis" is the last of your worries. Think about this. Your plant have been discovered! Who cares what they turn into! The person who cropped your plant was taxing you! Consider it a warning pal! Next time it will more than likely be the entire plant! Chances are the thieves have told there friends, and guess what? You are gonna wake up one day without anything! If I were you, I'd remove it right away! Besides, that those last two pics tell me your plant have either turned to male, or hermi. The good thing about hermorphe dites, 80 to 85% of seeds will be girls! You do know how to tell the difference between a male and a hermi?

how can u tell if it turned male or hermie? . its just that it didnt really look like that last week... and those pics show seed sacs...they aint pollen sacs. they are hard, and i opened a few and there were seeds in em

It only takes one little male pollen sac to have seeds. So your plant may have hermied a little sorta speak. Ya may of not got the males out in time and one of there sacs opened.
Pick one. Thats where they came from.

You don't seem to worried about your plants being found so maybe you know who cut them.....if it was me I'd just tell them to come and get the rest of the seedy grow........just kidding. There's no way you can revert it back to an unseeded female. There may be a male plant growing somewhere near that you don't know about. It could be a hermie, if so, look for the male flowers, either way you're stuck with seeds at this point.

well i took ur guys advice and took em down,:hump: cuz i dont want the rest taken from me either...just did it this morning. should have some pics. up soon to show how much i got

since they still had about a month of flowering left, can the bud still turn out okay? another thing is that, i got like a whole bag of leaf trims and stems. any way i can make some good hash or anything?
