oh annnnddddddd… this is a post I put on another page
Well, I think I just learned an extremely valuable lesson. One I should have already known, but had to learn again I guess. I am currently 2-3 weeks from finishing my second grow ever, and am a little over a week into my third. For my second grow, I used bag seed from the two strains I have been getting from the same legal place for almost a year, because it was the first time I had ever got seed, and they were great looking seeds, I hoped they were female or reg seeds from a seed run. Then I find what is in the first picture. Damn hermie, crap, I look around and see balls on all of them.....damnit!!!!
So the lesson learned, don't think you know what you are doing and think you have the knowledge, when you really have no freakin clue.
Turns out, only that one was a hermie, and I think I must have had a small light leak, because I can't find any damn pollen sacs except for this one I found that looks like it opened. This is the second pic. Well I see on a random post here somebody thinking the same thing on their plant as I did. Somebody commented and said no, that is not a pollen sac. This is the third pic which I saw everywhere in my plants, and thought it was pollen sac.
While I am very happy that I will have good smoke soon, I am a bit bummed for one reason. I had taken 25 clones from these, and all 25 had roots, almost 20 were transplanted and doing great. Well the bright side is I now have a bunch of seed I ordered with a ton more on the way, and i'm about to have enough to get me through till another harvest without having to buy. (I need it medically and I need 1-2oz a week)
