:o:o:o:o:o.... Huh? First of all, quit shakin ur plant!!! Second, no offense, but if it's actually pollen ur shaking off, then u dont have any buds cuz it's a male, at least that's what I"M hopin....... Now, if it really is buds ur shakin around, then it's probobly all ur trichomes, or the crystals falling off. :shock::shock::shock::shock::shock::shock:

Something sure dont sound right,ive never seen where trichomes can just be flung off like dust,sounds like the worst case of powdery mildew in recorded history to me.

Unless you literly have thousands of ruptured pollen sacks i cant see it being pollen, & unless you have superman weed plants that are gaining layer upon layer of trichs on the leaves i cant see it being a good thing.

If it does end up being trichomes then save them damm leaves & make hash out of them,or even use them as lettuce on a ham sandwich but dont throw em out :weed:

Wheres the pics you were gonna post ?

You might have one hell of a case or powdery mold,the yellow sounds very much like mold to me,if it is indeed mold you need to act right now.

Sounds like a "Hermie" to me. I had a female once that was like 5 weeks(if memory serves) into flower, nice fat buds, then grew some male flowers and that's what I had. Yellow pollen all over the fuckin' place. No good mofo! Put some pics up and let's have a look see.

Sorry dude, yell I had the little yellow shit everwhere. I'm still finding some after 6 mounts.

I still get great weed with a seed here and there. Ever wonder were "Bag Seed" comes from?
