haha yea, the plants got so many balls its not even funny. It was just the new random hair like "things" that popped up. I'm sure they're just underdeveloped leaves it was just all the "budding" spots now have balls and new growth.

Thanks for the reply though !!

I thought that you were clinging on to some microscopically tiny small hope, but I should have known better. No disrespect intended.

I'd say "Enjoy the pollen harvest", but it sounds like you already have plenty of beans from this mystery batch.

End of Days - For this plant

Well I thought I'd post up some pics of my plant before I start to chop it up for some pollen and then disposal. Shockingly enough, I've still not had another one germ but a few that have slight cracks and I'm hopeful for. I'm going to pop 2 scuffed seeds into cups of wet promix and into the box to see if the old fashioned way works too. Just requires a waiting game and the occasional spray to keep moist/wet. I cut off flower end of 1 small branch to harvest some of the pollen and see how far along it is. I don't want to keep the plant for much longer anyway as the longer I keep it the more I have to throw out.

That said, HAVE a GREAT DAY !!

The whole good viable seeds thing is a tricky one, I've got a stock of seeds... might as well explain the story in a bit of detail. Many years ago (5 - 6) I worked somewhere that was a warehouse for returned items that were then resold. We got shipments from all sorts of companies, stores, distributors, etc, etc. Well once we got a shipment from a big name courier company (apparently after 6 months of holding items that aren't claimed - they get sold in contents sales) So we made our way thru this shipment and one day whilst everyone was out for lunch it was only me and another guy in the back. We found a sealed cylinder, it was a manilla shipping tube I'd say ~6" diameter. We both found it odd that both of the ends were glued, not only that but it had a really weird ship to address and a return of BC.... Well shit, we wanted to know what was inside...coworker cracked the tube as hard as he could against the desk and *POOF* FULL of Weed, and i don't mean nicely packaged buds, this was jammed in almost like someone had trimmed and dried and just used the shipment for the "cure". I don't know how much was in the entire tube, we managed to put just over 2.4lbs into my trunk before people started to come back from lunch and saw weed everywhere. Was a smoke friendly environment so we just shared what we found (other than what was in my trunk).

From that batch of stuff, it was RIDDLED with seeds, I can only imagine hermie'd and shipped but between me and my friends back then we've got easily a few hundred seeds. So as bummed as I am about this male plant, and even the seeds that haven't germ'd I'm going to put even more in a bag and just wait till I have a bunch then into 12/12 and off we go again !!

Since this is going to be ongoing, I'll continue to use this thread for all my "adventures" from this point on !!
