So guys im just doing my routine inspection to my plants at this morning, and i found one plant is getting this(in my pics). all of my seeds are feminised, has anyone experienced this? getting a male from feminised seeds, should i call the seed company or do nothing, is it a common phenomenon or scarce? im going to remove that one and please help, tell me your experiences. it is the 12 day in flowing, will it affect others?2B0BC4D1-D587-4329-B80F-FFCC166BE3C5.JPG5A5FEA6C-7F81-4CC4-9012-84E1EDBD1C24.JPG 8A4B1682-9338-4E58-B10D-6DAF456DD0A1.JPG 7084D193-7B14-4746-8BE5-8B5DF9FF0280.JPG

Did you get the feminised seeds from a reputable breeder/bank?
Anyway these look like males or hermies.

No belive me them aint balls! They look like bud sites begging to swell. Like i said give it a week or two they won't explode till they start looking like bananas then with in that week they explode and pollinate.

Female calyxs produce hairs, this has none and looks like a pollen sack.

I have never seen such a thing with feminized seeds and I hate to say it, but I'm worried for you because I've seen this with regular seeds. hellmutt is right though, those could be calyxes forming. Let em go at least another week. Keep an eye out for a white hair growing out of the tip of those things, then it should be female. If they start to separate from the stalk a bit and droop down they're definitely male. Even if they don't separate and just start to point downward.

If you do have to remove the male, be extremely careful not to shake it or manhandle it too much. Or walk away with it. Have a plastic bag or container very close and slowly put the male directly into it. Cut it off a piece a a time if that helps you not ruffle it. If you pull it away from the rest of your plants too fast, the air flow is going to send all that pollen back into your plants. It hopefully won't get that far before you know for sure. Still be careful and slow when removing it.

I had a male go just a little too long (similar situation as yours actually) and when I pulled it out of my grow cabinet some pollen must have gotten left behind because some of my buds had seeds. Not a lot - a few here and there. But my subsequent grows afterwards even had seeds which means that the pollen sticks to walls and stuff. I cleaned my grow cabinet really well so I don't understand how they could survive my cleaning but they did.

thanks for your scrupulous description and your experience, i remove it from my tent when i saw it at this morning, so dont worry about pollen, i put it on my windowsill now which is 6m away from my sealed tent, i think it is safe enough, i will let it receive enough sunlight and still water it, lets see what will happen two weeks later, thanks again friend!
