The law just states one ounce in possession. I believe this means at home and on my person, total. This just became a medical state a couple of years ago, so to be fair (I guess) things are still in transition.
One grower I talked to thought the key might be found in how the law states one ounce of USABLE cannabis. Technically, this means I could have plants hanging to dry or curing which may not be considered as "usable." But this defense hasn't been tested in court. Quite a few dispensaries have popped up over the last couple of years and there's lots of tokers, illegal and legal. I doubt if the law is too concerned about small-time personal growers like me. At least I hope not.

Yeah that's a bit unpredictable isn't it. I'm in Scotland and the law here is weird as hell. Think it's more to do with judges/ individual police forces preference. Ie, I know a guy just got caught with 55 that got valued at 300 per plant and he's looking like jail time... But I also know a guy who got caught with 40 odds valued at a grand per plant and he got less than a grand fine.
Generally speaking for 1 or 2 plants it's a 350 fine. But again, I know a guy caught with 2 seedlings got a 400 and a guy that got caught with a beautiful, easy 30 ouncer just about to chop and he got a 350 fine. It's really bizarre to say the least cos that guys 30 ouncer was valued at more than the guy who's looking like getting the jail for 50 tiddlers in a sog.
Important thing to take away from this though is that LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS!!
Just don't tell anyone lol.

That's something youdve hated my opinion on this time last year but someone on another forum enlightened me and I've changed my ways lol.

If the pollen did indeed come from a stray male part on your otherwise female plants as suspected, the the seeds will be feminized. There is still that rare chance it came from a male somewhere, if so they will be regular seeds.

Hiya bud, how would one go about making fem seeds then?If the pollen did indeed come from a stray male part on your otherwise female plants as suspected, the the seeds will be feminized. There is still that rare chance it came from a male somewhere, if so they will be regular seeds.
Is that what this colloidal silver stuff is?
I see folk talk about this subject but Ive never really payed attention. Got some photos on just now though and wouldn't mind some seeds from one in particular. RQS amnesia haze. The toughest, strongest, most resilient strain I've grown by a million miles. First year without a tent and they've thrived in conditions I thought would kill them. Was 8c at most up there for the last month of veg and the first month after flip. Seen it -2c a fair few times with lights off. Snapped one of them in half, dropped a light on the other, lost my ph meter so can't use scillica this run and snapped mains off both of them every time I've touched them.
Sorry for the ramble I'm a bit burst mate.
Anyway, I've heard about the pollen in a bag trick to get seeds from one cola but any way to do it without pollen?
Long route for a short question but hey, were stoners. A simple "yes" answer would probably leave me para a/f lol.

Yes that’s exactly what it’s for. Basically you can force a female plant to have male flowers with silver solutions, or even just stress (as probably happened to the plants in this thread) and create pollen. Then because there is no male chromosome the seeds created with the pollen will all be female.

The weed must be good
, you spaced off before you got to this sentence:"If you have hermies, that is going to be your source, of course (hey! that rhymes!) but if you don't have one then there really only one way to get seeds; outside pollen."

Way back in the day, we always had seeds in a bag of product. I’ve had some of mine get pollinated& produce seeds. The product wasn’t ruined, still did the job, just had to use a little more. I believe making seeds takes energy away from making THC. I just harvested as usual, dried and cleaned it well. Wished I still had my vinyl albums to use the covers. Yes, it was a tedious process.

Do these look like there ready to be flushed? Can see a lot of Orange hairs now but Trichs still seem milky/cloudy. 7 weeks flowering blue gelato and gorilla skittles are around 63 days flowering and triple is is supposed to be around 55 but they all look about even to me in terms of harvest times. I'm keen to get them flushed and dried I don't want any more pollen spreading, if you look at the last picture I post you will see some of the buds at the back are turning a yellowish colour (Not all buds on the plant are like that, and only 2 plants at the back have a couple of these (there seeded to fuck) but overall most plants and buds are looking good still, I have been removing seeds I see as they grow to minimise a seedfest at harvest lol.

Here's the yellowing (full of seed buds at the back) I have misted the plants and tent a couple of times to kill any pollen lurking about and always had my dehumidifier going 24/7 And also carbon filter exhaust. None of the front or middle plants have this (except a few small seeds here and there mainly at the bottom which I immediately rip out, I have felt most buds and can confirm they are doin well and not rammed full of seeds so looks like we're gonna pull through (I hope?)

Hi,Anton-I was just reading over your thread,and was wondering if it's possible that the tent
from your friend had the pollen in it to begin with?
That stuff doesn't go bad unless it gets wet-if he ever had a male plant or a hermie in there that dropped some pollen,it could have still been in the tent,if he didn't wash it down well (or at all) before you borrowed it.
And your fan blew it all around ,pollinating some of your buds.
Just a thought-I've pollinated a few plants before,and a little of that $hit goes a looong way...

Been feeding these only water since Thursday, hope to chop them Saturday, what do you guys think? Just over 8 weeks flowering, although we had the seeding issue at the back plant (only a few buds are heavily pollonated/seeded) After misting twice a week seems to have stopped any further issues so as a first grow im quite happy so far, we plan to trim and hang to dry (In the same tent) For a week then cure in jars. What's the minimum cure time guys? I know cannabis can be cured for months but I mean a minimum cure so that it's 100% acceptable to smoke.. 1 week cure then roll up? Thanks guys, all your help has really gave me good knowledge for my next grow!

Also some plants still have more white hairs than others, but want to harvest/dry them all together(in the same tent), will these remain white hairs turn more over the next few days feeding water?! What a headache lol

Also may add that I haven't "flushed" the plant as such ie (putting in a bathtub and running water through them) just simply stopped feeding nutes and only plain water, my worry is I have done this too early with a couple (with white hairs still, Trichs cloudy) I have basically "diluted" the soils remaining nutes so it is still using that up right?
