good day friends, i have an issue with my babies and i hope someone can help me out, here's the deal i have 1 (one) plant flowering under 400w hps, soil grow using Foxfarm big bloom and tiger bloom for flowering. after 4 weeks of flowering I noticed pollen sacs (???) under some of the branches and there are pistils shooting out of them and heavy with crystals all over the buds. can a plant pollinate itself ???? should i chalk this up a a seed crop? if seeds form will they also pollinate itself if its female ? not even sure, it may be a male thru and thru but this is my first crop and NEED HELP. Have attached photos.

i don't see anything that looks like pollen sacks. The best way to know is if there are hairs coming out of it...it's a female calyx. Yours are obviously female and should they happen to polinate themselves they will be fem seeds.

more pics please, show us more of the sacks in detail, i think it may be a hermie, possibley a pretty bad one. to me it looks like in pic 1 i can see multiple pollen sacks forming. w/o more to look at i could very well be wrong though. more pics will allow me to give you a better answer.

a few of those pics have suspicious looking growths but i didnt see anything that i can say for sure, youve got a decent chance still, keep your eyes on them and check often, if it does you should be able to tell for sure soon. you could order some dutchmasters reverse and saturator if you want to keep it and just pick off any sacks till it comes. unfortunatley reverse can not undo pollination though. only kill male flowers and stop them from coming back, 2 applications are usually used, one right when you notice signs and then later on about halfway through the grow. its nice to have it around in case of emergencies, so even if this isnt a herm i would advise you to get some so it will be there when you need it and you wont have to have it rushed to you and have it cost a fortune
