Hi all,
This is my first grow and 5 weeks into flowering one of my plants has gone mad, here is a pic.



Can someone please say what is going on here, is this calyx swell or some thing else. My others dont seem like this. It was a mixed fem seed under 600hps. I have had some hermie issues with all 3 of my BB Cheese fems, one outside not too bad herm, one v bad herm killed and a controlable on in grow room. I hope this plant has not been pollenated by the herm cheese. But the whole of this plant is like this with the hairs starting to turn brown and where the hairs are growing out of have got huge. Is it possiable for every single bud on a plant get pollenated yet others seem ok.

Thanks alot

I have had a look and it does seem to be seeds. So is this whole plant seeds ? What should I do with it ?
it is a unknown fem pollenated with a BB Cheese fem that hermied. Are all my other plants likely to end up the same
Will these be female seeds then.
So could every bud on every plant all 5 of them be 100% seeds :cry:

Well the whole room is pollenated Oh Feck. I have chopped the to worst one that are just about ready, and the one which have less seeds will finish in 5 weeks so lesson learned about hermies pollen and fans. Anything with balls gets killed in future. Dont stress plants when very young with excessive heat. Next time will be much better lets just hope the 3 i have left will atleast finish with a few seeds and a great smoke.

I bet you lot hate newbies

They would have all produced very smokable bud along with those seeds though, if you had just waited you could have at least harvested more and then either picked the seeds out or made hash.

look on the bright side, the seeds from the other plant could be feminized. i do no know how your plants herm'd, heat? as long as they werent genetic hermis i dont think it matters. i know hermis from light leaks pollenating healthy plants can produce fem seeds. anyway enjoy what you get. learn from mistakes.

It sure is harsh, but I am leaving the over 3 that dont seem as bad they are 10-12 week flower by looks of it so hopefully they will be nice. The plant which I posted pic of would not of produced much more as it is just seeds on seeds from the 2 i chopped there will be poss 500 seeds, it is that bad :shock:. From what i have seen the seeds have reduced crop by 70% or more. Im never starting in the summer again just winter months.

Thanks for all your wisdom people

What if a hermie pollenated 3 pure females, because some say I will get femmed seeds, which is true, would not use seeds from pollenated hermie

if you have genetic hermies they will pass on the hermie trait, if your hermies were from light stress, overripness, or hormonal induction you most likely will get fem seeds but hermies are still possible.

in you grow them but be watchful the chance that youll end up with a seeded crop is high. id toss them.

Thanks for the advice, So is Big Buddha cheese known to hermie then as all 3 did but my other 4 plants that were not big buddah were fine till they got knocked up.

So what strain would you recommend? any do you use femmed seeds, as that is what i have, i have some big buddha blue cheese, and a nightshade from barneys farm plus a few mixed all femmed. as u can tell i am a noob but we all go to start somewhere. I like a heavy couch lock with lots of flavor.

thanks again

couchlock youll get from a heavy indica. my northern lights gets pretty couchy sometimes.

im sorry but im not the strain-whore i wish i was. i can grow the fuck out of what i have and have had but my experience is limited to about a dozen strains.
