i noticed today that my crop has some seeds, some ladies has more then others...
where the fuck did they come from?? i have no males i the garden, removed them as fast as my eye spotted them.
im in week 7 and 6days in bloom almost time to harvest so i have checked the crop regulary and i havent seen any seeds at all, but today, green unmature seeds some are so newly that you could squeese them between yout fingers and thay will break apart, for the reckord i had realy big probs with the RH and temperature, the tepm went up to 40celcius one day , i have nut burned em a couple of times... do you think it could be stress that have maked em some kind of
hermaphordites.. have checked every one an theres no sign of a pollensack anywhere..

strains are K2,norhternlights,and one Lemon from desjaaman seeds.
sorry about my english, hope you understand : ) :bigjoint:

When u get into the harvest, you'll probably see the pollen sacks and then you'll know which plant(s) turned on you........ shit happens. Sounds like stress induced, with all your problems.

It happened to me during my previous grow. I used some of the seeds for my current grow. I tried with three seeds, but only one of them sprouted. That is a fairly low success rate considering that all feminized seeds that I have bought, have sprouted without a problem. But the one that did sprouted, grows at the same rate as the other plants that are from commercial seeds in my current grow. But I will watch it closely to see if it will be a hermie or perhaps completely male. I believe it will be a female, since all my plants from the previous grow were mainly female.

I would like to see the out cone so I'll send you a friend request so I can keep up on the plant.

Done. I'm on the third week of vegging, and intend to go to flowering light cycle this week, so it will take some time before I know the outcome.

yeah, I think we've all been stung by hermies some time or other, I know I've been stung by stress induced hermies as well as what I believe to be genetc hermies (from the seed itself) c'est la vie

I know it was stress in my case. One time during the flowering process, the timer broke down so the light wasn't cut off when it should have. Another problem I had, was a faulty water supply, so the plants got too little water before I discovered it. I have taken precautions to avoid such problems this time, but you never know, anything can happen.

The best part about all the seeds, is they will all be female! I speak from experience. I have stressed plants into hermies many times and every seed (over 200) I have gotten like this has turned out to be female!

Stress will create hermaphrdites. Also some strains herm at the end as a last ditch effort to get seeded.
wtf some strains? thats not nice, we all want pure sensi.. but i hade som big probs, they where under nuted all time of the blom and i burned and burned and burned hehe shit happens,the RH was up to 80% one day and then the temp problem, next is gonna be much better now when i got control of everything : )

they wont mature that fast, or? harvest next week i think.. some amber trichs mostly cloudy = )

istead of starting a new tread.. whats the best way to remove any pollen that might be in the grow room? so my next want destroyed, i think its the Lemon who is the herm...she/he has allot more seeds than the rest of the ladies.. and in the begining of the bloom cycle when they showed preflowers,3 out of 4 lemons was clearly herms.. and the fourth i thought it was a pollensack.. then i thought "naa not 4 of 4 chill out" and then the buds started to grow.... so it might be this fucker.

After everything is all said and done I would clean it all and wipe it down just to be sure, i believe water neutralizes pollen; however I am not positive. This is what I did after a batch of Blueberry hermied on me and i haven't had any issues with it since that point.
 
I recently harvested 3 plants, 1 of 'em had seeds, about 5/6 per bud. The other 2 had none. Odd?

Water will kill pollen, but be careful, spraying water around your buds can lead to mold. Keep an eye on 'em ;)

I agree about the ants thing, Just trying to look at the bright side:)
Cloudy is when you want to harvest.

Most likely Hermies...... also some plants for whatever reason just tend to produce a seed or two.....

I have 2 genetics that if left to long... like 10+ weeks they will seed like 2-3 seeds total.... or that is all I have ever found... no male nanners.... just a couple seeds.

Also could have brought in pollen from the outside on your hands, clothes, etc... maybe a pet did.... Also if you are running fresh air exchange and pulling air in from the outside pollen could have come from there as well.

so what your saying is that it doesent need to be pollen from a cannabis plant? polen from a regular tree?
yes i use fresh air directly from outside..
what can i say or do...it seems like SHIT HAPPENS to bad that it almost harvest : / hopefully the clones will turn out better : )
