I spent some time surfing through the forums for a couple days when I can get some time and it seems like the best possible way to get direct help is to post some pics so here it goes,let me know what you think and what this means in a lump sum.

Problems Gone a Drift:Leaves(specifically older and fan),purpling stemms of fan leaves,Appearance of seed pods(worse pod group is small and empty,seems strange and hoping not to far or late,started to appear on new growth and not near main buds,(scared...nuhuh...yeah =/)


My "pod" problem was noticed today when I attepmted to pull of what looked like a hanging dead leaf when as soon as I removed it i noticed pollen and froze :((((

I can go on forever but i dont know what info is most useful so i will wait for a response.

*Note:First grow and I AM trying to find what works for ME.My attempts to find knowledge is not to leech.And please decent responses, Im trying to find a relatively decent solution not someone telling me "o its dust trash it", Thank A Lot

If this plant was a young clone or fresh seedling thats a few weeks old i would just say its normal, but...your in the middle of flowering and you have getting some purple stem. Usually Its just a temperature problem, it can easily be fixed by maintaining a steady temperature of 70-80 degrees. Whats the temp in your room right now. Compare to the temps they should be and adjust if need. Let me know if i was a help?? :mrgreen:

The pods are male flowers, which are a stress reaction. Your plants aren't too happy about something. What temperature is your garden?(hottest in the day and at night)

My room temp is usually between 68-75 but can get colder at night.Im guessing I stress induced it with the combitnation of the sick look and taking trimmings.Its odd though because one of the two plants who use the same resvior showed symptons or what looked like nute burn so i flushed her and waited. When it seemed to be showing signs of recovery I decided its been long enough to trim off some of those nasty fan leaves well then the sick look came back on that same plant and started these pollen sacks.If they produce pollen what will that mean for me?

*Also to mention its set up in aero/hyrdo system

how many days before the pollen is mature enough to pollenate or does it matter?is it possible to cut the sacks off if spotted?

just keep growing it.......whats done is done...i find those male flowers sometimes after I harvest..nothing you can do at this point...you will get a few seeds in the end and the smoke will still be good...it just may take a little longer to finish flowering because its making seeds in some of the buds which slows growth..your ok though

has anyone ever tried picking out the seeds in the buds with tweezers, i think i can tell which ones and going to turn into them but would that stop or slow it or would it just stress it more?

Imagine if you came down with the flu, so you flushed your system for a day or two with just water, then someone came by and made you go through a strenous workout.. I wouldn't be feelin' so hot after that, and neither would a plant going through a trimming session.

Look possible to me that from the first pic of your leaves that you may have spider mites.
If the mites attack in numbers this can cause hermie as the plant will panic as its being eaten alive.
I cant be sure though without hd pics but those leaves do not look healthy in the first pic but in the second pic the plants have nice healthy leaves at the middle and top and i think mites nest in the lower branches to start with and work their way up the plant.
Take a magnifying glass and inspect all of your lower leaves on the underside and the lower buds for nests:blsmoke:

i originally thought that was the problem but i never found a mite when it came to checking them. Ill keep looking and see if i can get some more pictures

You can remove the male flowers, just wet them alot first, this stops the dispersal od=f pollen. dutch master makes a product called reverse that can stop plants from having the hermaphroditic reaction.
