Hey there was wondering why my buds have pollen sacks, not open?????

[str8ballin]

about 8 weeks in, started flushing week 7.....started to notice pollen sacks, alot of them.....not opened, but twisted....i use all advanced nutes flowering w/connoisseur a/b in soil......my question is why do thing pollen sacks are forming in the buds(not opened)????, and would my buds have been bigger if they did not form these sacks ???? ​

you may be looking at the caylx of a female bud,not pollen sacs

 

[frmrboi]

you have hermaphrodites, something stressed your ladies and caused them (most likely cause is a light leak in the dark period)
Your grow will be ruined by them as they will dump pollen and make seeds not resin.
I don't see anything in those pictures though ?

No light leak completely dark,

They may have been predisposed to herm due to genetics - nothing you can do about that one except deal with it.
Mist the sites down well with water and start plucking them off. Get them all if you can.
Seeds do not "ruin" the bud - the plant is just doing what it can to reproduce, its natural. If heavily seeded, the bud potency will be reduced but no reason to "chuck em" at week 8.
Live and learn.

Don't know genetics, bag seed....why mist'em down???

thats prolly why they hermied bag seed has a rep. for doing that.....its all good tho just castrate the male balls every 3 or 4 days keep an eye on it..........

You mist the sites before you pluck them to avoid spreading any pollen as you move about the plants.
Moisture keeps the grains from floating around in the air and finding receptive pistols, and is said to "Kill" the pollen.

this. need better focus on the pics.

It's not uncommon for a room full of females to hermie near the end of their lives.

The females want nothing more than to pass on their genetics through seeds. If it hasn't been polinated and is nearing death, it will hermie in a final attempt at producing seeds.

Got some shit from attitude was wondering if all strains will do this???
