OK so i got 3 SFV OGs and 1 White Widow going. Ive posted pics and have a thread in the grown room. Everyone thats looked at them says they look very nice. Problem i woke up this morning and found balls on my White Widow. Im 5 weeks into flower shouldnt this have happened long ago?. Did it turn hermi on me during flower? The balls are not on every branch or node just a few. Please help. What do i do?

shit i would just cut them off, not really too much else you can do. Maybe get some auxin but i have no clue where you could get that

The widow that I,m growing right now must be lollipopped. Otherwise those tiny buds on the bottom throw off nuts for lack of light. In your situation I would exterminate that plant with extreme prejudice, then you can sleep at night...you do not want pollen floating around your roomright now.

In your first week or two of flower cut all the foliage/bud sites off the bottom 1/3 of your plant. This will improve airflow, give you bigger buds at the top and gets rid of all the popcorn looking stuff at the bottom where the light and air is poor, thats where 90% of hermie troubles come from.

Yeah dude... those didn't just pop up over night... ;-)

You have developed & released nut sacks there... and pollenated pistils.

It is what it is... spray everything down w a light peroxide spray to sterilize the pollen that is still everywhere... even your fan blades. Peace

it helps get air through the plants. This espicially helps if using Co2 because Co2 is heavier than air so it falls down a circulating fan will circulate the Co2 back throughout the room

I know now, been doing that for years... I must be old cause i didn't know they had a name for it.. to me the buds at the very bottom are usually worthless so I trim em up to direct more energy to the rest of the plant and to get better light penatration

if you have 3 other fem why would you want to seed all of em? unless breeding
only one went hermied not other 3 females...unlesss you want to breed em all and get seed in all your weed, odds are some will have seed but i would at least get that one out of that space? finish somewhere else??? or something if you want to keep the heshe? but move it out now before they all get major prego?

Thank you all for the advice. One more question. Can i just cut off the pollen sacks or will they just pop back up? The top part of plant has no pollen sacks only lower branches.

Is it true that if you grow seeds out from hermi'd plants that most likely the new plants will hermi too?
