White sprouts in auto buds

[7vicsmcc]

I've never seen anything like this, first auito grow

[Cloud]

they look like nanners or bananas whatever you want to call them. Might have seeded bud.

I agree, I was trying to find a link for them to look at when you had commented on my post, Cloud. Lol

I have this same issue with my autos outdoors. I'm not that experienced with autos this is my first outdoor grow with them, have grown photos for years and never saw this unless they foxtailed? I have no males but....pollen may be in the wind from neighboring farms? It's on both my Durban poison and sweet tooth.

[OneWithGanja]

I would definitely be cautious of neighboring farms if they’re growing as well. A male plant can pollinate a female from quite a distance away.. and I’m sorry for the late response, been super busy at work..

Male flowers, 100%.
You can very carefully pinch them out and hope you don't impregnate them, let them pop and see what the seeds are like (bad idea) or harvest and pinch the male flowers off, dry,cure and smoke.
It's a bummer but it happens, especially with "new" things like auto flower, ruderalis likes to hermie, among other things.
Enjoy the day, tomorrow is never certain.

Out of curiosity, what genetics/breeder were you using?

Not sure exactly what you mean. If I cut and dry why not just smoke all buds as long as they are away from other plants while drying? These should be ready by now anyway.

Some folks (me) are allergic to the pollen (gives me a headache), and it is not healthy for anyone.,,,,

AUTO AK47 FEMINIZED from msl ,all I know

[s62]

MSNL has good genetics as far as I know.

Howdy 7vicsmcc, Those are 'nanners'! The seeds they may produce will most likely be female. I have three grows now from 'nanner'ed' seeds and they all have produced female plants. As for the genetics, I think that the environmental stresses (heat, light, and pH problems) are more likely to cause the nanners. On the last grow (from nanner'ed seeds), I kept the temperatures (air) under 80° F and have not found many seeds, so far only four seeds out of over ten ounces of bud.

So i could move it away from others and have a crapload of free auto seeds. Covered with tricones is it smokable? These are outies

[s62]

Should be smokable, yes. I think there may be an increased likelihood that the seeds could be hermies as well.
