SOIL Hermie?

As I'm trimming I'm pretty sure I'm looking at a plant with hermies... I'll post some pictures I guess my question is even worth keeping!?

One plant had no seeds but tons of sacs that look like there would be a seed in it but no seeds in one plant, I liked hearing what dankwing said about it being a waste cuz it'll still get you high!?
 
I say that because the pollen sac itself doesn’t effect the quality of the smoke . It isn’t until the production of seeds occurs does the quality of the weed become effected . Once fertilized the cannabis plant puts all its energy and nutes into making seeds which in turn reduces the potency of the bud . If seeds have not been produced then any potential lose of potency will be minimal if at all . The weed is very much smokeable and tbh you have prob smoked herm weed before and didn’t even know it .

If you do find seeds don’t use them to grow . A seed from a herm will produce another herm . This is one of the main reasons I don’t use bag seeds at all to grow . I personally feel that if I have good weed and fine a seed , it is more likely to be due to herming rather then pollination via male . And I don’t wish to chance it.

Now on the other hand faminized seeds are made by pollination of a female plant by another female plant ( a herm used to pollinate a non-Hermed female ) seeds collected from a female that has been pollinated in this manner should produce only female plants . These are the seeds we are all paying good money for and will work great for growing bud .
 
Ty! Very good to hear that as long as there's no seeds it won't affect the quality! Only one of them had seeds in it so I can expect that one could be less potent?
 
In the 70's all the weed I ever got had seeds in it, we thought it was normal back then. It was a ritual to clean your weed on a gatefold album cover or you'd get a 4th of July bowl.
 
Brother don't worry about it not getting you high, cause it will still get you plenty high.
Aint nothin wrong smoking bud with a few seed in it.
Have you got any pictures? You might be looking at calyxes which are normal.@Firsttimernate123
 
If you don’t get a good high from smoking the bud you can hash out of it . The easiest way to do this imho is isopropyl alcohol. Cut all the bud up like you would to roll a joint . Put it into a glass mason jar . Get a bottle of iso alcohol ( highest % you can find , I think it’s like 92 or 97% ) put the iso and the ground buds into the freezer . Leave it there till over night . Next day pour the iso into the jar with the bud till it just covers all the bud . Put it back into the freezer for about 10-20mins till the iso turns amber color ( before it turns green ) strain the iso through a coffee filter into a glass baking dish . So that all the bud is removed and you only have amber colored iso left . Then just let it sit in the baking dish till the iso evaporates off . ( you can heat it to speed up the evap but to be safe if it’s your first time just let it evap on it’s own . The amber colored residue left behind can be scraped off with a razor blade .

This amber tar left behind is iso hash aka wax aka dabs . It is basically the thc extracted from the plant and will be much more concentrated .

There is other ways to extract the thc from the bud . But this imho is the easiest.

Bubble hash is another way using just ice water but u will also need screen bags and it is really simple too . Also you can make rasin with coffee filters and a hair straightening iron . There is a lot of easy safe ways to make hash but iso imho is the best for someone just starting out making hash . Bubble hash is just as easy but requires bubble bags . Rasin via an iron is fairly easy too but isn’t something I would recommend to the first timer . But if you would like more info on it I would be happy to provide it
 
Even if it were not super smoke..there is lots you can do with it. ie:edibles, ice water hash, pain cream, Suppositorys (seriously), and more..

I remember back in the day, getting a pound that was 30 % seed and it still was ok for Mexicale Manure..
