well I was watering and I bumped a branch of the only Sour Diesel I have and noticed some dust flying around, I thought wtf bumped it again and saw the dust, moments later I noticed the pollen sacs, some of which had opened. this is very frightening to me as my whole 4x8 is full of ladies in their third week of flowering. the SD has nice buds on it obviously they arent mature but what am I supposed to do to make sure none of the pollen further spreads but somehow harvest the buds on there? Thanks!

is it only on a few branches? maybe cut of the branches with the pollen sacs on them. i would spray your ladies down with mist of water for sure to try and stop that pollen from setting on the other girls. i would recommend moveing that sour d out of there or killing it off. you dont want to seed up the rest of your crop.

spray them down with water that should make most of the pollen sterile

the pistils will start to shrivil and brown up in the next few days. i would spray all the plants down to kill of any pollen. if u seen pollen flying then theres alot of it.

also is it bad to put the wet plants back under the HPS?

I wouldn't recommend you to harvest now as they aren't even half of the cycle. Take the hermie out of your room, cut off the branches and put her in the backyard or in the trash! You don't wanna loose all trying to save 1 crazy bitch. Yes you can place the plants the light, it won't cause any damage to them.
Funny how my sour diesel did the same shit to me.

ouchhh mine dont look that bad . I thought I localized the male containing branch but today found another exploded nodes worth of pollen sacs they were kinda dried up like they had released a few days ago so im going to kill it before it fucks up all my other plants

Not unless you want to risk getting your grow seeded. Otherwise, do what Kid Twist is telling you to do. Keep spritzing with the water.

u could always make hash with it or mix it in your finnal porduct later. just a few nugs here and there chop em up fine and them the bags you give to your friends...lol. nothings ever a waste when it coems to bud, you may not be able to get it all in this time but you just jar it and wait until next run and mix the rest in with that.
