Ok, so, the way you can tell if your plant is pollenated is by looking at the hairs. The hairs that have collected pollen will turn red/brown and recede. So if your white spikey hairs are turning brown and receding it is pollenated. You dont have to chop it down or throw it away, you can still smoke it and you will have future seeds to grow and not make the same mistake on.

Yeah, at this stage of growth they should all be pure white. And I cant tell from the photos personally. My eyes arent what they used to be.

Whether your plant is pollinated or not isn't your biggest concern with that plant. You have a couple months before that plants done. There isn't a whole lot area for pollen to have seeded the plant. Clean the room its in, maybe try putting some water in a spray bottle and gently rinse the plant off. Then take whatever lights you're using get them as close to the plant as you can without burning it, buy a timer set it for 12/12. While you're waiting for it to finish read read read, when you're done reading do it again. Consider buying more seeds because the plant you have isn't gonna yield a pound. I would suggest getting some feminized auto flower seeds to make learning some basic growing skills easier for you. Good luck

That's a female, and since it doesn't have many pistils yet, you may have some pollination, if the pollen was viable, on a few of those buds but best thing is to spray whole plant down with water (it sterilizes pollen) and then clean surrounding area with wash rag or what have you to get rid of any stray pollen. Some times pollen is sterile already and you get lucky. At worst though you've only pollenated a few buds. New ones that come out won't be pollenated.

Dear forum for anyone who is reading this i really appreciate your advise, i am a beginner for my self for medical purposes.

two weed plants from seeds (feminised) 33 days ago.

1 turned out to be a male, female and male plant right next to eachother, but for around 10 days whilst next two each other i noticed pollen where falling, yes i am stupid i still kept it next to female i did not know. first time, i am now worried female plant has been pollinated, or hefidaite. surely as so close female has been polinated?

please see photos, can you tell me from photos if it has been polinated?

shall i start again?

i really appreciate for anyone who can give advise i am really gutted not sure if i am ok or not, . all the photos are of the same plant.

many thanks once again.

Man...I suggest you buy a few books on cannabis cultivation and start over. Those looks more like preflowers. What are you using for light??
