hey guys.

i have 4 plants in total all outdoors in the UK. they have been flowering for 2 1/2 weeks. 3 are female. and 1 is hermie which is mainly female, i only saw like 5 balls on her yesterday. took them off and havent seen any since. the balls where small and premature so there wouldnt have been any pollen.
i got in, and all my girls look beautiful with no new balls. all good. then i looked at my calyxes, the ones that grow first of all, on the main stem between the nodes. they had swollenbup and some had no pistils or they where brown. i opend a couple up and there was a tiny green seed in there. this has happend to all 4 off my plants. but all the main buds are completely fine with nice white pistils, maybe a few tips darkened. also the buds are growing vigerously they havent slowed down. everythings fine except for this seeds out of no where. i have no bananas any where on any of the girls.

so why are there seeds? do some plants produce there own seeds? is it normal for a few seeds to be growing with no pollonation?

thanks for reading guys

peace :joint:

Either you didn't kill the hermie quickly enough or someones got another grow with a male in it somewhere within 5 miles and THAT's what's done it...

fuck man!!. but my buds are completely fine. everything is wikid other than first ones that showed in the nodes. just the single ones.
will it not effect the rest of my plant or summin? coz it dosent seem to be. and ino i took the balls of the hermir in time. one day they wasnt there. woke up the next day and saw them. and took them off straight away. they where tiny aswell. like 5 of them.

must be someone else in the area if they are pollinated. but they dont look pollinated at all. thats the thing??

doesn't matter if they don't look polinated or not. I don't understand your question. You have seeds growing in your buds. They obviously got polinated. What are you confused about? Your smokes gonna have seeds. That's that

coz i dont understand how? i dont have any pollen sacks anywhere! so how could it happen. also it hasnt affected the clusters of buds. only the single calyxs.

will i get more bud than seeds? my buds are still growing really well.

yeah man they are just seeds, and if you are seeing the buds grow well why are you even asking? haha

It doesnt matter its all in the past, just move on, watch your baby grow, harvest, and enjoy.

i worry to much man. just confused on how i got seeds. i did have a male last year. it dropped its pollen. could it have lingerd around for over a year?

u cant get seeds in 2 1/2 weeks, takes 4-5 wks, and u can actually seed the seed breakin out of the calix. i think what u r seeing is the calix where the preflower bloomed, usually very early, the pistols die and the calix swells up, looking like a seed is growing. this condition is what growers want when there plants are maturing and and the buds r getting fat. good luck, keep on growin.

thats what i thought. and i hope it is that.
but i took a calyx off and opend it to see a tiny green seed looking thing. it wasnt a mature seed.
will i still get a nice smoke off it if there are seeds?

easy

I had that happen once, inside, and I didn't have any hermies, or males, anywhere. I only found two seeds, in those single calyxs, and was very surprised. I didn't notice mine til harvest time, and didn't find one single seed in any of the buds. Still haven't figures that one out, but my theory, is that it was just a freak of nature, trying to 'find a way'(stolen from Jurassic Park.lol).

maybe it is a freak of nature. i hope it is, and i only get those few seeds on the single calyxes. that would be cool!

My last harvest (128g's total dry weight) I found 1 single seed in 1 of the buds. Not fully formed, still white and hollow. Maybe you just barely BARELY stressed the plant enough to produce 1 seed..... lol, I dunno if that's even possible. To stress a plant into producing 1 single seed. But maybe man. I duuno, That'd be my guess. Heat stress was my issue I'm pretty sure. But like I said. I only found 1, single, white hollow seed in all 128g's off 3 different plants. Weird shit. Still KILLER smoke tho. So I bet your fine

Don't you lot grow Industrial Hemp ???

If so, acres and acres of co-ed plants increases the likely hood of the wind blowing in a pollen.

Or maybe a nieghbor with "plastic tomato's" and no idea what they are doing...

nah man. not that i know off. i think its illegal now. i have no idea lol. but theres none near me i can assure you that.
sorry but what do you mean plastic tomatoes?

and to HookedOnChronics, im sure it should be okay now. i have no sighn of pollen sacks. so its either a freak of nature. pollen has lingerd in my garden for over a year. or someone else in the area has a male.

fuck knows which one though.

ah okay. maybe someone has in the area. and they had a male that pollinated my ladies.
if someone else has done that. they are an idiot and dont think of any one else that might be growing in the area.
i think they should be okay though. my actual buds are fine at the moment. lets see what happens.
