If you didnt find many clusters of male flowers then the pollination shouldnt be that bad. What you described is the typical mild herming, lower shaded budsites that produce small popcorn buds pop out a few male flowers and pollinate enough to grow a few seeds around it.

The buds will continue to grow but as you noticed youll probably have some seeds in it, how many depends on how many male flowers/pollen there was. Not much can be done other than just picking off any male flower clusters you see and be watchful to prevent it from happening in future grows
can you germinate those seeds? if there was a feminized plant from seed, it means those seeds will still be feminized?
just some curiosity i have for a while, on this subject
thanks!!

Hey dude yeah i know what you mean.. that whole subject is a bit cloudy online, i think some people genuinely think that the seeds will turn into males or another hermaphrodite but i can only put this down to either being falsely informed online maybe or the seed companys themselves dont want people to continue there line and cross breed! But honestly in my opinion i've bought fire weed, Sour Sage to be exact and noticed maybe 4/5 seeds in an oz and the seeds were amazing all germinated, one hermied, the others grew into tall girls (out.. female will always be more dominant in the next gen

Haha!! duuuuuude!! that fur is the best thing.. as im using soil i added various organic compounds to boost nutrients throughout the cycle, theres fish,blood,bone,kelp and bat guano all mixed in different sizes which i leave to sit for about a week or so to allow the soil to draw from the compounds and if i check a week later and theres "fur" also known as soil web it means your soil/microbes are happy ensuring that your plant is happy, molasses is just like drinking coffee for humans but for over 10 different microbes in the soil.. Trust me years ago when i first saw it i almost threw the soil away but after reading/experimenting and finding out things i realised thats its not a problem.. even my seedlings go in soil with some fur/soil web and they're never effected.
haha yeah the hash making is lots of fun, i love doing bubble hash man :) smiles all day
Ooh now that is interesting... I'm too relieved to feel silly lol! This definitely bears further reading, cheers man. I'm well into the whole living soil thing, one day when I have more space to play with, and an outdoor garden would be great too, I'm gonna go full on organic, compost and worm farms, the whole deal. I love that the plants can just take what they need from what the living organisms provide in the soil so I'm not responsible for spotting everything they need and measuring it out in just the right dose, it seems so much simpler and more sustainable too.

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's the same process they use to create fem seeds, except they use colloidal silver to get the nannas, and I'm sure they play about with them when they're breeding in traits to make them more stable so they don't herm too often.

Oh I forgot you'd used bagseed! So it seems to me that perhaps the grow your weed came from had a plant grow nannas and pollinate the room, done the same thing as yours, so it'd be a genetic thing. I'm only speculating, I have no experience in this other than some light reading, but that's what seems likely to me.

Yeah it really has been simple and cost effective using molasses, i do about half a teaspoon twice a week to keep them thriving otherwise they wont have to work for there food lol sounds mean i know but those buggers will eat dead roots and maintain a fresh nice smelling, earthy soil.

This was years ago im talking, i prefer getting the genetics i like now so i havent used bag seeds in a while.. this round which hermied on me was a DNA genetics strain Sour tangie and they were all feminine seed thata were bought

I actually tried molasses a few weeks ago, read loads about it and figured it's just a massive carbo-load so I'd give it a try but the only effects I got was fur on my coco! I don't know but I'm guessing most of the microbes are pretty much dead with all the synthetic nutes and couldn't eat the through the molasses and break it down before it went gross. I'm just guessing though, I don't know, but I don't think I'd dare try it again.

Yeah, I'm putting a week aside for drying, I've waited this long so there's no point rushing the job now! Also, the weed I've been buying the last few weeks is damp and really badly manicured, just full of stalks, I'd be ashamed to be associated with shit like that so I want it all done right, even if it means waiting a little bit longer.
Check out my latest thread, i took some snaps of the girls that hermied on me last night, really was a good call letting them continue so happy it hasn't spread any worse neither from what i can see
