ok, I left for a long weekend and left my bestie in charge of my shit. Watch my dogs and house, and take care of plants. I left her specific instructions for chemicals, etc. Soooo..... she just watered them. Friday night. I get back late last night, and they're just blasted. Last I remember, my tap water pH is around 7.5. I'm in hempy buckets, using Lucas 2 part formula. How do I fix this??? HELP!!!! FAST!!! GTWT :XXhippylove:
Poured some water out of a few buckets - 7.2 Was thinking about mixing up a shit ton of 5.8 water and flushing them out in tub....
:BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead::BangHead: Aaaaand I found two ripe fat dicked males in there. Jeesus fucking balls. Fuck my life. Thanks for the advice guys, gonna go pull the plug. I know I've contaminated everything, including my moms. So fucking mad. Prolly for the best, I've got too much house shit going on right now anyway. I lost my SSH when I started my seeds, so I'll try to find some more. I'm really pissed about the Strawberry Anesthesia though. That's my favorite, and I'm pretty sure my source for that doesn't have it any more. GTWT :XXhippylove:
No no! Just rinse everything down with water and the pollen will be rendered harmless. Don't give up!
Soooo..... I thought once a male unleashed around females, that was it. These were pretty far along - they must have just popped when I left, so almost a whole week in there with my girls. And my moms got exposed last night.... (at least I think they're moms, who the fuck knows now...) Spray them with water will do the trick? I'm not concerned about a few seeds here and there, this stuff is just for me. But I also don't want to continue a strain if it's going to always have seeds in it.... (and no, I do NOT want to lose my SA!!!) GTWT :XXhippylove:
? They aren't hermie so what's the problem with a few seeds? Just pull the males when you grow those beans out like normal...
If they were in there for a while with mature flowering females then you may get some seeds in the buds but since they were pollenated by a regular male and not a hermie then there shouldn't be any worry of further seeds in the future. As long as you don't mind pulling a few seeds out of your buds then I would finish them. I would rinse them all and resume as normal. The mothers or any non flowering plants can be rinsed and should be fine. Discard the males and be a little more vigilant in the future. I see no reason to scrap everything and start over.
They're not that mature. I'd say in flower for about two weeks now. So what I'm understanding is this - If I rinse everything off with water: the flower girls will probably get a few seeds. The moms will be just fine and dandy. No seeds, because they were never flowered... Yes? No? GTWT :XXhippylove:
Whew. Ok, I'm off to go rinse. Yeah, primarily for personal use. I help a friend out here and there, but it would be embarrassing to give someone a bag with seeds in it. IMHO. So I'd prefer not to. If my mums are ok, then I'll do what I was going to do and clone them in a month or so. Gonna wipe down everything in the meantime, just in case. GTWT :XXhippylove:
