    Oversized Ovules

    So I dug around in my recently harvested buds. The buds came from four green crack plants that came from feminized seeds. All four plants produced buds completely full of have these "mini seeds" in every single calyx. ***Every single one.*** So that got me thinking that it was impossible that they were fertilized by pollen. Because there's no way that a piece of pollen touched every single hair produced by every single calyx and even the ones that don't have hairs contain one of these tiny little seeds. I did a ton of research and found that it's not seeds at all. It is the ovule and every single calyx has one. I've never seen anything like it and assume that it is a genetic thing. Some cuts just have large ovules.... I've smoked a lot of herb in the last 30 years and have never ever had my bud loaded with ovules the way my last grow is loaded.

    Has anyone else had this issue and what came of it? Does it smoke terribly? Is it all destined for bubble bags?

    I'm really bummed out that this turned out this way. My smallest plant gave me 6 oz of dried garbage. I haven't finished drying the other 3 plants but I'm expecting at least a pound and a half of dried bud that probably crackles and pops when smoked. It's tragic....

    Are the seeds developed or off-white shells?
    Only you can tell how well it smokes.
    All trichomed plants are bubble baggable.
    Let us do something different.

      Hi. Mister...
      We all get frustrated when our grow seems "off".
      Cure up a jar or two and sample it.

      You might find it is not as awful as you initially thought.

        They are green like a lima bean. About the size of a poppy seed.

          In the pic I posted there is the calyx and next to it is the oversized ovule. I have many of them if you would like to see more....

              I take it the calyx is the green bit which is to the right and above the ovule, the small round thing?

              Are they soft or hard?

              Ive never much bothered to inspect calyx all that much, buds are packed with unopened ones close to the stem, normally with a few pistols trying to burst out.
