Too many seeds on my plants :(

[Elgrande]

Greetins all,

Well it's that time of the year again and things are looking good except that while I was away for a couple of weeks, I came back to find my plants budding big time, but also full of seeds.

I guess it's too late to do anything but if anyone can offer some advice, I would appreciate it.

Pics will come when the whirlie birds aren't flying around.

Only advice - kill those males and hermies!!!!

pick em out, still good weed

Something else I forgot to ask - does this affect the quality of the weed?

 

[mistaphuck]

just if you want to sell,if it gets seeded early it will hinder bud growth, but if its late then its just seeded bud, still gets you high just weighs more and you have to pick them out.

wait, so even tho a male plant gives seeds the buds it grows are still consumable?

what? no, males produce pollen sacks not buds or seeds.. females produce seeds he has seeded buds..

I'll try to get some close-ups later

Do you think these are smokeable?

 

[vradd]

my neck hurts looking at those.

so if it starts to bud first then show seed pods its still good? but if it just shows seed pods its a dud?

You have at least one hermaphrodite as visible in the eighth pic. Those aren't seeds. They're male flowers. But you probably have some seeds.

Spot on - good eye veggiegardener.

so it's smokeable?

i think i still have another month before i cut them down - or sooner?

Next set of pics will be more easy to look at, I've been bent for the past couple of days so that explains the sideways pics

also noticed a worm - grey color on one plant, squashed the little fucker, but there might be more and I'm not sure if I can find BT - any other alternative? By the looks of my photos, is it worth pulling them sooner?

Can anyone reply?

Is it smokeable and ready to harvest?

I would pick the males/hermies and wait a month to let them finish. The buds will likely grow more anyway, and the trics (as well as the seeds) need more time to ripen. At least you'll have plenty of seeds to grow next year, though.
