is there any way to tell if a male has polinated your female in an early stage ?? and can a male stil polinate a female whe its dead around the same area?? and can u polinate your female by pulling out the male ?? any awnsers will help .. this is my first time dealling with males .. its been about a week sense the last time i was there is that enough time to polinate a female?

I know the male flowers take a few weeks to develope. When did you notice the male and how far along was it. Any pics would help

I think you are fine were thare flowers on the male or just green sacks.
well i dont know i seen something that kinda looked like a flower ... i think im just going to have to do a little more reaserch on the stages of males ... i wish i would took a picture... for my other qestion can a dead male plant polinate a female .. i threw them off the trail about 50 yards down ... i didnt want to be waliking out of the woods with 2 7 ft male plants llol but if need be i will go back and get them ... sorry for the newb qestions its just my first time dealling with males.. and i hate a shit load of seeds in my bag..

If you can get them as far away as possible, just to be sure but from my experience you are fine. I hope it all goes wel from hear pity about the males but at least you got them out.

really i think they may be pollinated then .. my farthest along whick is around 3 weeks in flowering .. is starting to turn brown i thought it was normal... only time will tell...
hey Goose...
when a female is pollenated, the calyxs are hugely swollen...it doesnt take long for em to swell either...my seed run only took about a week for the calyx to swell. Around the 2nd to 3rd week you can squeeze the calyx. if they're hard, you know there's a seed within it...
GL bro...keep tabs

Yeah, thats how they make female seeds, but not off plants that stressed to hermi easy, or were genetically hermi to start with.. These are bad genetics as the offspring will end up the same.

They take nice females n stress the hell out of em to find one that wont turn hermi, then use colloidal silver to turn it hermi. This way it has the best genetics and can stand up to heat / cold, and environmental stresses.
