My Skunk #1 hermied

My Skunk 1 had some pollen sacs on it. Mainly on the bottom branches. We plucked them off. She will get moved out of the flower room. We had left the door open and I think the light or maybe I stripped her too much and stress her? Any suggestions?

That’s a tough one. I’ve pulled sacs and been okay. I’ve also pulled sacs and more grew and I got seeds that grow hermies.

Your call really. I tend to put so much into them that it’s hard for me to accept it and I keep pulling until it works or it’s too late.

As for leaked light, I don’t buy into that theory, because I’ve been outside during a super moon. :pink_heart:

Yeah, I agree on light. I did strip her down when she was about 3 weeks into flower. I did go a bit crazy. She was so leafy.

See I just don’t remember that from Skunk. Large leafs, but not overwhelming, and super high calyx to leaf ratio is how I remember it.

Idk. Not really my type of structure. She’s discontinued. We have other stuff we want to try

Yeah, that sux. Where did you get it?

p.s. you got aphids

I’m passing along questionable overgrow info:

“Some sensitive genetics can be sent into herm by bugs like aphids and mites.”

The theory is that the plant thinks it’s under attack and is trying to guarantee its genetic future.

Skunk itself has been bred out by so many breeders that I don’t know of any really that don’t. Keep her in the tent and throw something else in you want to get seeds from and bypass the system

Oh bad too, told you about our weather. We got an explosion. We sprayed yesterday and today , tomorrow!

My skunk plant. She looked leafy too but some really fine bud. When it was curd out. You can’t alway judge it till curd. She was so so pretty. She was f1 from 2 I had last year. One of them had a cuple balling. In bottom too. I just pick. A set of balls off of one my plants. I tryed use them to pollinat anther plant but they seemed like they didn’t have any pollen in them.

Skunks in everything. This is original skunk from Sensi. Og grow girl knows. She’s part of it! Thank you grow girl.

Mine did the same thing, I’m sure tired of shttzy genetics,
I’ve never had such trouble with a plant other than autos

Lol. This isn’t an auto. Photo. Light leaks, defoliated hard on her too. I don’t know. We sat there last night plucking pollen sacs. Fun stuff

Lol, not really, just been busy trimming, got the grape ape done, ended up with 12 oz so not horrible, banana purple punch, 3 oz

Hey @SweetsensiWA

That is so sad to see.

I had it happen to 4 of my Cheese plants from last year :sob: . I was not able to save them.

I would love to see if there is anything that can be done so I know in future what to do.

I really hope you are able to save it.

I’ve heard that bringing the temperature down to 50s would sometimes reverse the process, but I’m not sure if it’s a real solution or not. Anyone heard of this?

That’s sucks. I’m not giving up on her. Last night we sat and plucked pollen sacs. We’re about 5 weeks into flower. Hopefully it won’t be enough time for them to develop. The only bummer is now they are shifting energy from THC to seed.
