I've got a bunch of pollinated buds. They are 4 weeks in. I do have about 15 clones that are potentially ready for the room. Should I give up on the plants in the room and move on to the clones, or let the girls finish out. I don't have any smoke for myself as of now, so would I be better off letting these polinated plants mature some more before harvest? Like I said they are 4 weeks into 12/12. I vegged them all for about a month, maybe a little longer. Will the buds on the plant fill out anymore than what they are now? Here are some pics of what they look like now.IMG_0949.JPG IMG_0956 (2).JPG IMG_0957.JPG

The two bud close ups do not appear pollinated?

I would remove the nanners/balls and spray the canopy down with water (as it kills pollen) and finish em

The caliyxs on them are swollen and the pistils are receding into the caliyxs. I think i just happens with in the last few days.

I would probably let them go until seeds start to develop, once that happens chop.

They look pretty far along in flowering you might get lucky and only get a couple seeds here and there

if they have seeded u might inly get a little bita seed but u wanna finish it man let the bud mature and finish either way u can make some nice hash with it and it will smoke dont pull when u first notice seeds u will have bud that pop it easyer to remove full done seeds then immature seeds plus is hermied u have got some nice femm seeds

Remove your male parts and finish them Unless it pollinated the whole bunch finish them out. I kind of like getting a dozen free seeds. Most buds will probably be OK.

Like hogbud said, those buds don't appear to be pollinated. At least not with viable pollen. If successfully pollinated the pistils turn brown/amber/gold within roughly 24 hours, like so:

And yes, you can still smoke seeded bud. Obviously need to remove the seeds while crumbling but it's still mj.

And yes, given that they certainly aren't completely pollinated, they will get much fatter. So let them be, and remove the hermies as instructed above. If the male flowers appear only on a few buds/branches you don't need to remove the entire plant.

Thanks for all the input guys. I pulled the plants out and sprayed them all down to knock off the pollen. Removed the one plant that hermied and put the rest back in the room. I do not have a whole lot of browniing pistils as of yet. Maybe I'll be alright for the most part. I have a bud or two showing some browning, but the claliyx's, at the nodes, are swollen and have red, receding pistils. Not so much on the cola's themselves. just a small amount on the buds.

Fem. seeds? That would be a definite bonus.

So true dude, didn't think about that, last year I had a shitload of seedweed my good stuff in other plots was cropped, I chopped early and it was impossible to get those little white seeds out, I just made ten grams of oil per plant lol
