Just noticed tonight, other plants don't seem go be showing sex yet. There all just 3 weeks in
i honestly don't know i don't grow male plants but my dad does. all i know is w.e. you do if you dont want seeds then get it the fuck out. i grew some females maybe 10-15 feet away from my dads males and they started to seed a little bit. pretty interesting and i knew that was a possibility but i didn't care. about 90% is buds the rest is like seeds

The other person above me is being over dramatic. Now that you have notice the males, remove them from your grow. Simple.
The thing is there are several Male parts, so it had to have been there for sometime also.

That is male for sure and i would guess pollen has already fell. But if your actual females (hopefully) have not shown sex then you are fine. How could pollen attach to the stigma (pistil) if it does not exist yet.
But if it were my grow room I would mist the walls lightly with water to hopefully destroy the pollens viability.

I have pulled plant. Plan to mist entire tent tonight. 2 of the other 4 plants are just starting to show sex. And there just literally like 10 small pistols between the 2 showing on the nodes

So you should have either no seeds or not enough to cause any problems. The first few pistils being pollinated is not any reason for concern at all.

Hi Hell Valley,
Sounds to me that you did the right thngs. Seeds you do get will be viable. You may have even made an interesting cross.
Hey, on another issue...lovely pictures you posted. Could you share your photo equipment details. I am needing to buy a camera suitable for growing.
Cheers,
JD

I use just my regular phone, which is a galaxy s9, I edit my photos to be 1:1 scale so it shows in true scale

Well it works great. Those are some nice close-ups.
On your male...of you haven't culled it yet, you could stick it someplace still with some plastic underneath. It'll keep shedding pollen as long as it gets any light at all. Collect and dry the pollen...stick it in the freezer and you can use it months later.
Cheers,

I moved it across house in separate room. Will get regular sunlight, and made a foil bowl around the stem under the plant to catch the pollen. I have no ac return ducts in that room.

Cool...I currently have a tiny little pollination op with two Black Widow males. I'm knocking up a Black Widow female to recoup my seeds and decided to throw a couple of flowering clones in there to provide genetic diversity.
Currently have three plants I grew out from seeds made last winter. Black Pearl male (a sativa strain from High Grade seeds) and White Widow. Also crossed it with a Kush, a skunk and a couple others that were ripe for pollinaion. It's not breeding but is fun and productive to make seeds.
Cheers,
JD
