So i was checking on my girls, definitely a female, there's pistils everywhere, but today i noticed two small growths adjacent to eachother, my ph has been in the 6.5 range, temperatures usually stay at about 80 and fluctuate from the upper 70s to lower 80s, im using a 300w led grow light, with fox farms original planting mix with 30% perlite added, they're also auto flowers, they've been growing beautifully and i really don't want my hard work to go to waste. There's only two of them on the plant, and the top photo is to show shes a girl, any help will be appreciated.

How many plants u have? If you have more than one i will either put her in a separate room and pluck the ballz Everytime they grow back, but if u have more ladies and u don't have room u gonna have to make a decision., Either kill it or keep plucking ballz as they grow and risk your other girls on getting pollinated.

Not always every plant is diff but if u manage to get every ball sack without missing a single one it will be a perfectly fine female. FYI spraying them down with water makes pollen hard to move from plant to plant. Also pollen dies in 14 days. Just a few facts to help ya out I'm also in the same boat with a hermie! Goodluck

Naners are a diff story they immediately pollinate everything the second the show up. Unlike balls, they have to rip and open first.

Well i remived them and so far i dont see any more pollen sacs to form, i heard if you remove them quick in time the plant will trick itself back into thinking ots a female, so far the only issues i have is slight nute burn and some niteogen toxicity hopefully the grow will continue smoothly without too many issues these last few weeks
