I'm in my 2nd week of flower on my first crop. Now I'm on the please God don't let my exotics start to herm... I'm aware on the sacs and nanners. I guess my question is are they easy to find? Where should I look for them...etc. any help would be appreciated. 20160328_093921.jpg 20160328_093916.jpg

Pollen sacs will pop up where your pistils do. Unless you stress you plants you won't need to worry about these.

Nanners you won't have to worry about for sometime, they appear late in flower on the bud in a plants attempt to make seeds. This is why waiting too long to harvest can be bad.

Look up rodelization: You can save your nanners to help make feminized seeds.

Yea plants really don't hermie often in my experiences. Just keep doing what your doin and don't stress em 2 much and i think you will be fine.

Thanks I have a temp. Wall separating the veg/flower room and there is a couple of pin holes in the Wall were the tinirst amount of light leaks in during 12 dark.... it takes awhile to a just my eyes to even notice the light leak. As I keep on reading. Some say it's not to much of a big deal if it's so miniumal of a light leak, others say I'm screwed if a pin hole of light gets threw during my 12 dark time

.... I checked out rodelization. It's very interesting and if I do find nanners I will def. Keep them. Im not sure how long the shelf life is on nanners. I just think the pollination and growing seeds is a bit out of my league. Right now. Especially when I can just clip and clone.

Nanners can be kept in a plastic bag in the fridge and they can still pollinate up to a month later if kept dry and cool.
