Hello,
I am a new grower.
A couple of weeks ago I discovered a male plant among my 4 plants in flowering. I pulled the male plant, but do not know if the other 3 feminized plants are pollinated or not.
My three remaining plants are in their 6th week of flowering.
I am not seeing the little hairs on the buds.
Do these look like pollinated plants?
Will these plants produce buds?
Thanks.

You’ll have to wait to see if she is producing seeds in the flower calyxes.
Experienced growers will notice a difference in flower coloration toward the end of flowering, but there is otherwise no way to tell other than having seeds near harvest time. Keep in mind that it is normal for an unpollenated female to produce a few seeds, so don’t be surprised to see 6 or 8 seeds at harvest. It doesn’t mean that pollination has taken place. A pollenated female will produce a ton of seeds.
Yes, even if pollenated. Your buds are doing fine so far.
Both pollenated and unpollenated plants will produce hairs. It’s not an indication of pollenated or not.

Does look suspect Growmie, pluck a few of those swollen calyxes in a few days and open them up

Those buds look drastically different than usual flowers.
No new pistils and fat calyxes. I’m leaning towards pollenated and just making seeds now.
As stated above, pop one of those little flowers off and look inside.

Looks like a herm to me. I’m betting those are seed pods.
He had a male plant that he has removed from the grow room.
I think those are just pollinated females.

Agree, maybe the wrong terminology.

yup. That’s what a preggo plant looks like.
They are close enough to just ride them out in my opinion. Let them mature properly so the seeds are viable. Maybe you’ll get lucky and at least have some good seeds.
