Hey guys I'm on day 54 of my oldest Afghan kush Ryder. I noticed that the formation of the buds looked weird.... as I was tucking away fan leaves to make room for light to hit the buds I noticed What looked like a ball that would house a seed in between some nodes.

I then checked the main cola and pulled a very small piece of the aforementioned weird bud growth. when I squeezed it a very early and under developed seed came (very small) FUCK!!!!!! so demoralizing and discouraging after 54 days of nursing this thing like a newborn.

Ok, What should I do guys? trichomes are still mostly all clear all leaves still green.I fed her on Sunday..... should I begin to flush? is there anyway to flush faster than the conventional 2 weeks of water? will flushing help mature my trichomes to milky or amber? Any advice guys? What is the likely hood that my other babies have been pollinated? any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. pics to come later. although You Can see pics in an earlier thread I started thanks guys.

Not much you can do at this point but let them finish. If it was a hermie and you didn't notice it, chances are there were only a few male flowers, so not much pollen. If that was the case, there shouldn't be a whole lot of seeds, certainly not enough to greatly effect the quality of your finished smoke. You could remove any seeds that you see but frankly, I would just let the plant run it's natural course.
 
ok cool thanks muddy. I was hoping the advice came from you. I'll Just finish it off and report back.
 
muddy, should I begin flush? or wait till I see a substantial amount of yellow usually signifying 2 weeks left like you say on one of your threads.
 
I would wait until you see the yellowing of the leaves before starting to flush. Flush and picking early isn't going to change anything at this point.
 
NOT A HERMIE!!!!!! this is my first grow and was confused as to how the new growth came in..... sounds stupid I know.... gave it What I hope to be it's last feeding yesterday at 60 days old..... she's yellowing and I will begin flush next week. she's 14inches and I'm guessing she'll yeild be about 40 grams. will post pictures of yeild on This thread.
 
thats good news :D

it only sounds stupid if you already know, but if you dont its just learning :)
 
Like Mom use to say--don't squeeze that ________. Hard to keep ones hands away from a beautiful bud and when they come in pairs it is utterly irresistible. :eek:

Note: This comment is like 9 days old = remote in time. Just looking over the threads.
