Hey,

I've been growing for some time, but this is the first time I've ever did this. I had a large male plant spraying pollen in the flower room. Stupid mistake. Not sure really what to do now.

Its only week one in flower for the rest of the plants, and most look like they are in preflower.

What would yall do? Re-veg for a bit? Go with it? Start over?

This is a 4600 watt flower room thats fairly full.

This happened to me a few months or more ago. I am still making seeds! :wall:

Actually I don't mind so much. I got a great cross out of the screwup! :mrgreen:

It is finally starting to get back to normal. I did wipe the entire room down with bleach water a month ago. I emptied the room and filled my pump sprayer with bleach water and rinsed the walls and floor then wiped it all up. I'm sure the plants that were in there got hit as I have a ton of seeds. :mrgreen:

I would think you will need to do the super clean at some point to stop the spread of the pollen. I now move the male plants to the greenhouse so they can continue with the love fest!:hump:

Can you spray all of them with clear water as a rinse?

Yeah I can. It was near an exhaust fan, maybe the whole room won't get pollinated. I don't have enough in veg to refill the room up, so I might just go with it and see what happens.

Try to use the optical foliar switch. spray the fuck out of them and cross your fingers
