Cross pollination
SAC87started grow question 4 years ago
Hi there, I’m growing autos outdoors and am wondering if anyone has tried to grow around hemp fields. I’m wondering if the male hemp pollen will cross pollinate to my plants? I grew 4 last year and they were full of seeds. This years amnesia haze seems to have seeds. Thanks

Yes it can cross pollinate and it will ruin ur plant, get the structure of a grow tent and plastics and do a green house to prevent it.
Hope ur amnesia haze didnt get pollinated by hemp, it would hurt sooo much cuz amnesia haze is my favourite smoke so far.
Wish u best of luck growmie.

I’d say it’s certainly a risk. Pollen is dispersed by the wind, so if you are close enough and down wind. It seems you didn’t have this issue with the current grow - which looks awesome btw!
I would suggest growing your plants on the other side of some kind of solid obstruction — like you house or other building. This would at least decrease decrease the risk. Or as others have suggested you could grow under cover (plastic/row cover)... mind you there’s a cost to this of course.

it seems you already have your answer, of course that hemp can pollinate your plants. It seems that outdoor growing will prove problematic for you. I would consider setting an indoor.

I got to harvest in 14 days: in order to have enough time to cure it before leaving home for 2 weeks (safety first: is a period of floods in here, I just can't take the risk). I had a pretty long vegetative stage but I'm gonna finish it at 13 weeks. Am I gonna ruin it it, right?

How much time could it be until the plant is ripe?Looking at the image of the trichomes (and ignoring the little black lint xD) can someone give me maybe a rough estimate on how long they could still take? Could it be a week, could it be 3 weeks?
I feel a bit unsure because I already see some amber ones too.

Should I harvest in 2-3 weeks ?Hey, do you think my plants might be ready in two weeks ? They're autos in 7th week of their life. I know that 9 weeks is ok for most, but these should take approx. 11 weeks. Do you think one more week of feeding, then flush would be appropriate ? Trichomes are mostly milky white
