Are these balls? Some pollination going on

there's a few differnt strains in the tent that one is the only one showing that at all and it's near the fan, and an ec of 1400 of flower nutes in week 5 is very low N so wouldn't that would be strange to be toxicity?
Here's a picture of my flowers today, a few minutes ago. I'm running a survey table. You can see the N clawing in a few of my strains (OG Kush, Italian Ice, and Golden Putang). The gelatos are approving. My PPM is 783 (tap of mostly Ca/Mg of 200) and I'm 2 days into Week #2 flower.

If you look at the upper left you'll see the claw beginning. I won't alter it so she'll be a little unhappy but that's the start of it. s

Yeah..but on a truncheon its often along side ppm and cf so it's easy to be looking at the wrong bit
His meter is measuring microsiemens/cm

Oh right thanks! Is ec always written as a decimal?
It's most clear to put EC right after your number. So 1400 EC and 1.4 EC are the same and people will know whether you're talking about microsiemens (1400) or millisiemens (1.4), but you were fine saying "the ec has been around 1400." That said, if you always use millisiemens (1.4) than this can never accidently be mistaken for PPM.

Yep so one plant got dark hair very early and has seeds forming, a few others have been lightly pollinated too now. I pulled the first plant to go dark haired out and sprayed everything down with water. I looked through her and could not find anything that looked like balls or bananas but she was then first one to go dark and by far compared to the others that are slightly going now so I'm assuming she was the plant that hermied? But I looked another lightly pollinated plant and are these the balls /pollen sacks people talk about?

Thanks!
Nah "hip seeds" a lot of old cats call them... some old hippies even say you can chuck a very small bit of pollen right there early on and get seeds JUST right there. Never dared it myself but the dude I first learned to grow from when I was a weee teen swears you can do that.

Yeah I've heard of this too. Well hopefully it wasn't too much released there's a few plants that have definitely been pollinated but not others and a few only a couple of branches.

Yes makes sense. Thank you.

Microsiemens is the same as EC isn't it?
Siemens is EC. Micro, milli, etc., are values. Like there are 1000 milligrams to a 1 gram. So if someone says they're taking 1000mg of vitamin C or 1g of vitamin C it's the same amount.

Ah right understood. Thats where the 1.4 EC rather than 1400 EC comes from, 1400 is micro seimens. Got it thanks.
