Hey guys I started 12 \ 12 on april 18, two plants have a few bananas. One stopped popping them it seems, but I found 2 seeds in awkward spots on one plant. What should I do?

Harvest. No, just kidding. Probably 2 more weeks though? I would think just keep picking bananas off until harvest.

It was afghani from herbies. Im not happy with it though eo your right i guess.

They r seeds, not pollen sacks im pretty sure. They r hard, not plyable or soft at all? I ha3 other nice females in the tent, what should i do

It has a bunch of trichs, its almost 60 days into flowering. I absolutely cant have any risk of losing first harvest, so what should I do?

I thought once you find seeds (not nanners ive been plucking those, so annoying) that other true females are at risk? I took her out of the tent for today..

I run a perpetual grow with 100% "feminized" seeds and still find a seed occassionaly. If it is from a Blueberry Gum clone I call the seed "BG ? 6-12" and germinate it. Some grow, some don't. The darker the seed, usually, the better chance of the seed being viable. Some of my more interesting plants have been the result of one of these virgin births.

If you're finding actual seeds then pollination has happened, and you just have to let it ride.

Seeds won't ruin your smoke bro. Ive bought bags with comical amounts of them before.

Ok , I was just confused on why people worry about their plants being pollinated without true males near by. If it cant pollinate ladies then ill put er back in the tent and just make sure to pop out all seeds and bananas?

I use a razor blade and simply try to cut as far back as possible while handling the plant as nimbly as possible.

Stay vigilant on the nanner front and you should be good imo.

Im new to this, so I still expect some seeds in my harvest, and really have to keep a sharp eye out for any herming.

My only full run had some balls on the lower branches a few weeks into flower, and then nothing for the remainder. Haven't found a seed in that batch yet however.

Sensimilla has only become popular here the last year, and imo just from trying so many strains, seeds doesn't contribute to potency much. Some weeks it's so bombtacular you couldn't help but save the seeds.

My father started growing with me and he has a few seeds per O or so. It's no big deal imo :)

Some females will will produce a handful of seeds without any male pollen. Those are the keepers. But I you have hermies wouldn't use the genetics because most likely seeds are from the pollen and not the self preservation thing some strains do.
Finnish the plan if our not worries about others nearby gettin seeded from unseen hermies.

Just because you find an errant seed or 3 doesn't mean the plant has been pollinated. A few seed will not harm the product or change the quality. Pick out any seed you do find and try germinating them. The offspring are likely to be as good or better than the source of the seed.

Good luck, BigSteve.

Nothing else you can do, really. Loosen up and give her what she needs.

Your plants want to make seeds. Not being pollinated can definetly stress them out. Sensimilla is your goal. Hers is making seeds.
