The title says it all. The plant was polenized partially, now it kinda looks and smells bad :( ... help
Temperatures were a bit high, light was sufficient (close to a 150w HPS)

The buds aren't dense at all ...

Well it is super super super early right now...but it doesn't look too bad...I mean it isn't top notch obviously, but some strains don't get frosty til later, if at all...some strains aren't terribly frosty at all, but are still nice to smoke on.

another clue :
leaves are yellowing at an alarming rate.
looks to be having lots of babys
yeah, i gathered about 200 seeds + it has about 30 more. if finished developing the seeds about 1-2 weeks ago, do i have any chance of it going back to maching smoke-able buds ????
srsly depressed about this :|



I had 3 plants. the best one i removed from the closet because it looked ok and it smokes rather fine. Indeed it had ~ 2 more weeks to go, but i couldn't afford it taking the space of the other 2 ...

Well if it is seeded, that is where the trichomes went...lol...
No there won't really be any buds if they are all seeded by a male plant...hermie plants only make a few seeds, but male plants make hundreds, or thousands...depends on how many females are in the area...

yeah....when I let plants seed themselves so I have more reg seeds I am then growing for seeds and not for bud...because there won't really be any...It is best to remove males and then just seed a few branches selectively...or one just one plant...which is what I do...chalk a tiny plant up for seed...a very small clone after I find which seed I want to keep the most...and all that jazz...then I have all the seeds I want without having to order anymore...

It is what it is...and the best you will get is all the seed casings (calyxes) after you get the seeds out just gather up all the little plant bits that are left and you can smoke that...but only expect a bowl pack or 2...lol...that does suck...how did this happen?

It hermied because of a little 10 second light accident.
So what you're saying is that i have to cut it down because i have no chance that the remaining NOT SEEDED flowers are done developing ?
I still have one left that is pretty big, but with few trichomes

i came up with a solution myself.
I cut the hermied ugly one, because i don't want to grow extra-shitty weed and i'll focus all atention and light on the other, slightly underdeveloped but still looking good one :).
