Iv'e got some plants growing outdoors(southern hemisphere) today i checked up on them and realised i had missed a male, some of the sacks have burst, everything else is in veg atm and will not start to flower for atleast another 4 weeks.

will there a chance that my whole crop will be ruined or can i just except abit of seed here and there. I'm hoping in this month the pollen will either die or blow away in the wind.

Depending on how many plants we're talking about - I would be inclined to take one of the pump up sprayers & rinse them well two or so times over the course of a couple days. Beyond that I don't think you have anything to worry about with flowering 4 weeks away.

Uhmm, if the other 9 are showing white hairs then they are already flowering and can/and probably are pollinated.
Rinse now - several times. You're gonna have seeds in this go-round.

this happend to me last year.

the preflower pistols that are showing have most likely been pollinated so youll get a few seeds in your bud

not a big deal tho, i had a male bust a few pollen sacs and i got about 20-30 seeds in 2 pounds of weed

i dont think spraying them with water would have done anything anyways, once theyre pollinated they are pollinated.

if you knock someone up you cant just wash your jizz out of their pussy ya' know haha

yea thats true, idk why ppl spend so much money on seeds, when 1 plant can provide you enough seeds for so many grows.
