What's good ICmag...
I have a 600w flower tent about 2 feet apart from a separate 150w miscellaneous grow tent (both in the same room). In the 600w I have 1 Blue Dream (Santa Cruz cut) and 1 OG Kush x LA Confidential that are both 58 days into flowering. In the 150w I was sexing 2 other plants that I got from seed but I got somewhat lazy and didn't check on them for a while (typical stoner grower shit) and one turned out to be male and another female.
I checked on the 150w tent last night and the male was REALLY developed. Multiple pollen sacs. Of course I almost freaked out then quarantined and killed the male. I inspected the male plant briefly and did not see any open pollen sacs, but he was about to bust open any day. It may have been possible that a small amount of sacs opened before the others.
My 600w flowering tent has a fresh air intake coming from a open window, and an exhaust pumping hot air outside. My 150w also has a fresh air intake hooked up to the window but the exhaust is just pushing air into the room.
I sprayed the 150w tent down with water and the other female plant that was next to the male to deactivate any potential pollen. I saw a good amount of pistols left on the remaining female plant so I don't think it got pollinated, but I'm not sure.
So what are the odds of the worst case scenario in which the male plant dropped some pollen, it came out of the exhaust or the 150w tent somehow, and got into the 600w flowering tent, thus pollinating my girls?
Thanks guys this has really been bugging me for the last 24 hours ;/
