Everything looks normal to me too I'm seeing swollen calyxes too, just what you want, and she's foxtailing away nicely, always a good sign as they really add weight. I'm not sure what you are seeing but my guess its those big calyxes, they can appear kind of 'phallic'!!! Is that what you are seeing?
Let her finish.

hard to tell from the pics but it does look like you may have a few boy naners there, at 8 weeks i wouldnt worry too much if youre only letting it go another week. i could be wrong but youll know for sure in a few days if they are naners. if theres boat loads you can tweezer them out if you can be bothered and dont want any seed in your bud or just6 leave it.

if you got nanas then your plants putting its energy into them rather than bud or crystals. i would get to chopping her if that is the case

its perfectly normal for a plant to show a few nanners late into flowering in a last ditch attempt to pollinate itself. but they wont do anything really.

What is an hermaphrodite?
An hermaphrodite, or hermie, is a plant of one sex that develops the sexual organs of the other sex. Most commonly, a flowering female plant will develop staminate flowers, though the reverse is also true. Primarily male hermaphrodites are not as well recognized only because few growers let their males reach a point of flowering where the pistillate would be expressed.
Hermaphrodites are generally viewed with disfavor. First, they will release pollen and ruin a sinsemelia crop, pollinating themselves and all of the other females in the room. Second, the resulting seeds are worthless, because hermaphrodite parents tend to pass on the tendency to their offspring.
Please note that occassionally specious staminate flowers will appear in the last days of flowering of a female plant. These do not drop pollen and their appearance is not considered evidence of deleterious hermaphroditism.
Here's an image of a hermaphrodite, specifically a female plant with staminate flowers.

AAAwwwwwww That plant has been pollinated. Here I pointed out the seeds. They are green and very new. Maybe a week or so old. but you did get pollinated. Pull the nanners as you see them. I have one strain that does throw a few nanners late into flower too. I just pull them and carry on.
