This healthy plant is 10 days into flowering, and is showing lots of white hairs. But today, I noticed what may be some male pollen sacs forming near the top of the plant. Please look at these pics and see if you think they are pollen sacs.

Yes, thankfully I have 3 more healthy all-female Northern Lights plants.

The plant in the pictures shows all female flowers except for those few pollen sacs near the top. Is it worth trying to pull off those sacs and see if all goes well? Or would doing so seriously risk eventually pollenating the other 3 strong females in the closet?

This is my first grow so I don't want to take any unwise chances.

Thanks all.

BTW, here are the other 3 Northern Lights (10 days into flowering)...I think they'll easily fill the space vacated by the drag queen AK-48. I also included a couple pics of my first grow room (closet).

It's a 3'8" x 3'8" x 8' closet. The hood is a Luxor (vertical bulb) with 8" flanges. It houses a 600-watt Hortilux Super HPS bulb, powered by a Lumatek digital dimmable ballast. An Elicent 8" 636 CFM fan cools the hood and vents the room. There are 3 passive intake vents covered with black panty hose.

For my first grow I'm using Fox Farm Ocean Forrest grow medium (mixed with a little perlite), and Fox Farm nutrients.

The plants are Nirvana Northern Lights grown from feminized seeds. Wish me luck. I don't have any smoke till these are harvested, dried, and cured.

Nice looking closet there DJ! :aok:
You gonna start a grow journal? I'd sure like to see how your harvest turns out. I'm working with a similar sized space using two 400w and have been thinking of switching to one 600w.

Well, I killed the drag queen AK-48. But WHAT A ROOT STRUCTURE the she-male had...wow it was impressive...I've read mixed opinions about Fox Farm Ocean Forrest mix and nutrients, but they have worked very well for me on my first grow...
