Ace Panama, Groot, In High Brix

Give the neer-do-wells and misfits a day to cogitate on it. :) We might just come up with something useful.

:hmmmm:

* You don't get seeds without pollen, so where's the friggin pollen coming from?
* Why don't they grow to full size?

:hmmmm:

Great questions... unless every plant I’ve grown in there Hermies on me... where does it come from.

I think most here know this by now but just in case... I am a lawn guy, cut grass and shrubs, trees, etc 6 days a week. But when I get home, before I go into my grow area... the least I do is wash my hands and take off my shirt first. Idk if that’s good enough, or if there’s any reason to think I could pick the pollen up outside. I mean I guess I could, but as someone already pointed out that should only be certain times of the year...
 
Relatively cheap to replace, won't help the already seeded plant but worth a shot. I'm using a cheap tent that smells like plastic and find it hard to believe that would be the culprit, especially if you have your exhaust on 24/7 constantly circulating fresh air.

Buddy I feel for ya. Only advice I can give at this point would be to try reg seeds once to see
if its still an issue ? that is before throwing in the towel

Good idea Gazoo, thank you... I happen to have some reg seeds I may try if we can’t figure this out.

Check your timer. Is it old? Do you have the light schedule correct any power outages? Seen plenty of ppl say that a faulty timer is to blame

Timer isn’t too old. Plus this has happened ever since I set this tent up and started growing in it. Light schedule is at 11/13.... thanks KB we shall nail this down!

Oh and I made a mistake earlier and said my clone was throwing pistils with her light schedule at 11/13 but she’s in veg at 16/8.

So you had an issue with pollen before and your in a tent that is inside a closet. You said you sterilized the tent after that grow but I assume the closet is carpeted? Did you vacuum out the closet as well. For that matter if you did was the tent sterilized after or before that. My vacuum throws out hella dust. We'r venturing into the depths to look for solutions.:passitleft:

Yes sir, closet is carpeted. I have a dyson vac and always vacuum after I clean the tent. Work from the inside out with ventilation off... but maybe I should be vacuuming first...
And if this turns out to be the issue I’ll be kicking myself. The thing that really sucks is I won’t jnkw until I grow another one out... will be months before I know if it works.
 
Killerbudz said:
Good point. Thinking out loud here. Does seem far-fetched that it would be in the carpet but never know.

Oh no, I definitely appreciate your input. Don’t get me wrong... I’m just hella frustrated.
Gazoo said:
if so would not old pollen be degraded ? causing poor seed germination

Good question, I’m really not sure. But I’ll check that on google when I get home!

What power did you get ? mine is way to powerful waisted money as can only use the lower power and
actually be able to move "just a little" :)

It says 250x... but idk about that. It is a bit difficult to get it in place and very sensitive as well. I’ll need some practice before I get really good pics. I do wish it had an adjustable magnification, like a real microscope... instead you just move it up and down and of course it had a focus ring and an led brighteness knob.
 
I'm with KB, I'd double check that timer. Maybe one of the pins isn't all the way down and your light is coming on for 15 minutes or so during your dark schedule. You've taken way more precautions than I do, so I think you've covered all the obvious things, it's going to be something stupid. There is a stressor there somewhere, when I get a few nanners they make full seeds not a bunch of tiny seeds. Very frustrating indeed.

Checked the timer and all looks fine. Then I was like hey... I am stupid... So went and looked at this:

This is my flower tent temps for the last 24hrs...

As you can see there is no heat rise during the dark period... then it shoots up as soon as my panels come on. I did notice on the week long view I had a spike up to like 97... which is strange. I will be watching for spikes like that from now on.

Was thinking.... if KB was right about the old pollen... couldn't I stir it up here and there... maybe causing this? IDK, I am reaching now.
