Live Stoner Chat Wtf are these are they seeds male what ?

Ahhh, I see where you're coming from! But unfortunately it's impossible at week 1 or 2 of flower. It takes several weeks for pollen sacs to form, then several more weeks until pollen is ready to drop.

Not trying to argue but I've had a male form and drop in less than two weeks. If it's been breed to be a faster flowering photo, then it will transfer over on male side also.

Look at picture of him pinching it, looks like a male pod already opened up. But I may be wrong, pics are not the best.

I don't think its pollen kind of looks like trip damage? But I'm thinking it's a male with iron deficiency.

Maybe it's from male pre flowers that already opened, I have a couple males that will drop a good amount of pollen in veg.

Some bud sites start off a little clusters with no pistils. My grape pie cut is that way. If you're not seeing pollen sacs or signs of a male at the nodes, then you should be fine! As long as there are pistils only in that area then you're good. If there are pistils and little balls with out pistils, then it's a herm.. Looks normal for week 1/2 of flower!

Looks like you were right mate I’d just never seen buds start off like that .they grew in round seed looking balls then they open and start forming properly phew .. I feel a bit dim now lol you never stop learning do ya cheers bud

"Pre- flower" pollen sacs don't "open".. And if they did, they wouldn't have pollen in them. Thus the term "pre" flower. This is a photo period plant that we were talking about.. I have never heard of, or seen a photo period plant drop pollen or start to flower while in veg. If it does, it's not a photo period. The males you had that did that were not regular photo period plants..

I'm not sure what the confusion was about, lol. but the original pics clearly showed trichomes forming on the leaves, and GG stated that there were no pollen sacs at the nodes, just pistils.. How trichomes were mistaken for pollen on the leaves, with no signs of pollen sacs, is unknown to me, lol.

@LazyNhazy Never an argument bro! It's always a "discussion", lol. I'm soo far passed all of that arguing stuff, lol. But Im confident in my knowledge and experience and love "discussions" of all sorts! Im sure you've had males form in less than 2 weeks and drop pollen.. Must have been an auto.. Which was not the case here. No photo period plant is mature enough to drop pollen or to take a sample bud to smoke from, at week 1 or 2 of flower.. It's just not possible with a normal, mature, photo period plant that I'm aware of.

@GreenGardener Im glad you waited it out and didn't cull her! Seems like she'll be a frosty son of a gun with all that early trichome production! Flowers form differently on certain plants/strains. In the first week or two of flower, some put off lots of pistils as signs of pre flower, some focus more on the bud formation first and then shoot out the pistils (that's what yours did). But you can always be sure by checking for pollen sacs at the nodes on the main stem. If no male parts are there, then you should be good to go!

Oh.. I just remembered that you said this was a fem plant. Photo period fem seeds are notorious for showing intersex straits! I've actually killed off fems that I thought were male, then run the clone and have it turn out female. I just wasn't patient enough early on. But fem seeds are known to throw people off, lol. Just gotta be a little more patient with most fem seeds.

Thanks for the advice she’s a little beaut now smells of sour strawberry already . I was really thrown off buy the structure ive never seen until now it had loads of rock solid balls where usually there’s pistils growing and I assumed the worst straight away but after a few days the balls opened up to release loads of beautiful pistils It’s the old saying you don’t know what you don’t know

Check this out, this is a ThaiLights male thats in my veg room. One of many males that I had/have that drop pollen from "pre" flowers that turn into flowers and open. I just used pollen gathered the same way from a pure Sativa male in veg. Enough to make 25-50 seeds easily. Just thought I'd share cause you haven't seen it before.
