GreenGoblin's First Grow

well it don't take much pollen to do it...just a few tiny pollen sacs...I still hope it's just the seed sacs swollen with cannabinoids...but if it is not I hope you have the best seeds ever....did you open one up and see if it is just swollen rather than seeded? Don't want you to tear up the budz but if you can find just one you don't mind peeking in.

Yeah.. i should have clarified earlier.. I popped a few open with an exacto knife and there are semi formed seeds. The plants that are pollinated were good seed stock. The buds still smell really good too and are really sticky. I just really didnt want seedy bud. Not sure what to do.. it is day 28 or so of flower.

sorry GG...I can't know how you feel...but I do know how much work and thought anyone has to do to get that far into a grow...I hope we can figure out what went wrong so it doesn't happen to you again, I can't imagine how you can do much of anything about it now except finish up - separate the seeds and move on....at least it will still be good smoke.

Hey GG, it happens, and it's not the end of the world. There is obviously a hermie in the midst. I've seen some herm's with only one or two male flowers; very hard to detect at times, but that's enough. I Guess I disagree that your seeds will all be fems. I think hermie seeds will just grow more hemies.

In the end, just enjoy your smoke. It'll still be much better than any of the mids you can buy...B

Have you disected any GG to see if they are truely seeds and not fat calyxes? Take a lower bud you think is full of seeds, cut it off, and disect it, babes. And don't forget, ALL POT USED TO COME WITH SEEDS. It is just in the last few years all the buds do not. I remember when I was young, ( I know, long time ago!LOL!) It was all the time. Don't freak, it is all part of learning.

Peace

Thanks everyone.. I am not freaking about it.. just would have preferred some sensimillia. Who wouldn't! I am pretty sure that they are seeds in there... I took an exacto and popped one apart. It looks like an undeveloped seed at this point. You can kind of see one in one pic from my earlier post where I circled it. I may be wrong, and hopefully I am! I am going to let things go as they are and finish them out. No reason not to... they still smell fantastic and have really sticky buds.

Hey everyone.. I have to get some pics posted up, but I chopped all of those plants at 10 weeks just this past Tuesday and they are drying now. Some buds are loaded with seed, yet others are mostly seed free. The one "Donkey Dick" plant looks fantastic and really dense. The plant that I scrogged was loaded with bud and took FOREVER to trim. LOL. I was up until 3AM chopping away. Not sure yet on the total take but I am hoping for a few ounces. I will get some updates with pics soon. I have a few plants in my veg cabinet that I just moved over to the flower cabinet to go for round two. I will post a new thread on that, but I am going for growing some of the clones from these plants and a few lime kush to flower as well.

I am currently using 8 60 watt daylight cfl's and ive ahd them on over my pants for almost 3 weeks and they are not all that talll , maybe about 5-6 inches so far. If i wanted them to grow more for a good veg height and then i want to start hitting em for flowwering, what type of light would i need to get them growing more or is it a combo of the 2 at the same time??
