ta jed

hermie confirmed-damn it
cut a pod open and we have a seed
gutted
the other plants are fine
i used feminized seeds and hoped to avoid this crap again
at least the seeds will be feminized?and theres 20 seeds at the most so cud be worse

Roach

there must be pollen for seeds.

a hermie would show male flowers, and those flowers would be the source of the pollen.

bees/wasps could be the source of pollen also.

that's what they do

YaHooka Forums - FAQ hermie advice

The seeds from hermie pollen will be feminised but they will probably inherit the tendency to herm.

In theory the odds of feminised seed herming are higher than regular seed.
But it depends a lot on how careful the manufacturers have been with their breeding.

There were no light leaks? That is a common cause.

85F is a bit high but not outrageous.

20 seeds is not too bad, if that is all there are. You may get away with frequently inspecting the plants and removing any bananas and pollen sacks.
Or if it is only one plant and the problem persists you may decide you have to cut it down early.

Pain in the arse isn't it?

mornin fg its 5am ere and i couldnt sleep
so ive had luk and found 2 more pollen sacs and a lot more hidden seed pods
fink the lots fucked up
goin 2 let the plants finish anyway ive spent so much i want sumat 2 smoke whether its seedy or not lol
shame really but i was careful with light leaks it has to be the heat issue or just dodgy genetics?
cheers

jed ive done some reading on this strain (quite a lot lol) and most of what ive read is that this strain tends to be a bit hermie,
soz to hear about the problem they where looking so good to

jed

mornin all i got the girls out for a very detailed inspection and i found 2 with a few very small bananas so ive chopped them and trimmed em and theyre hanging in a nice dark place
ive dried a few sticky hairy buds in the microwave(primative i know)and its a really nice smoke
my ears are ringing?lol
the other 5 are fine so far anyway
one of them on the small side cola had clusters of immature seeds so ive cut them off just 2 b sure
gotta be vigilant now and hope for the best
i thought feminized seeds were female and that was that-but apparrently not- feminized seeds r prone 2 this kind of thing?
r they worth the extra expense
peace jed
hope ur plants do better sp

hope ur plants do better sp[/QUOTE]
Thanks jed got my fingers crossed. but i won't be doing this strain again from what i have been reading about it being hermie prone.

jed

me neither- thought a stable widow cross with amazing yields wud b 2 gud 2 be true
mite do northern lites next and ive read gud thing bout a strain called TNR?
fingers crossed my remaining 5 behave

seansplace

yes ive been reading about NL too, im in between that and ukcheesehead nightmare kush as ive read good things about the two, i wish i had space to have a separate veg room so that i could have a mother plant or two so that i have good genetics and also guaranteed females but im a bit short on space for another room.
good luck with the other five mate
