Hermie

I started flowering about 3 wks ago. I was happy to see all the white hairs. But now there are some balls also. Should I pinch them off or just leave them? I wouldn't think it would hurt if I did. It's the only plant.

you can pinch em off, but it's near impossible to catch em all. chances are your going to end up with some really seedy bud.

its really hard to do but id prolly just start over.....i had a cpl hermies in the past.....1 was xtra seedy like r u serious...and 1 time i saw what i thought were balls...left em alone.....they turned into buds,no seeds.....youll know male parts because they will be groups not like 1 ball here n there...if it is a hermie you can still grow it but in the end youll be like damn what a waste of time....how big is the plant anyways?what type of lights do you have?

It's a little over 1'. I'm using 3 cfls. I'm adding 2 more. Had success with 4 cfls in the past for 1 plant.

Hi, This is a strange plant. It only grew 15" the buds started turning amber. The plant just stoped growing. I dryed it. The weed is strong. I don't know if it's strong because it's good or because it wasn't flushed. And by not flushing the fert out, will that harm you? I read I could soak the weed,strain,dry it and should be ok. I don't want to do all that if I don't have to.

alot of erroneous info here. pluck em as you find em. they will first be at the main internodes before the bud site, and later right in the crook of the node at the budsite. if u do a good job u can get 90% of em. if you dont, than you will get seeded. if you do, you will not get seeded. good idea to spray em once a week with water-not under the lights- to nuetralize any male pollen that may have shed. I spend alot of time plucking balls and rarely do I get seeds, maybe 1 out of 4-5 zips. see 'em, soak'em, pinch 'em.
