Hey legends, I'm at around the 7 week stage of flower and noticed a few nanners on the smaller lower buds and have removed and wet down the site I took it from to prevent any pollen to spread, I first noticed them appearing 4 days ago and have only been removing 3-4 nanners a day since. The rest of the colas and other bud sites dont seem to be infected,

my question is ..
What's my chances of my plant turning to shit before harvest and am I only setting my self up for disappointment flogging a dead horse ?

Any advice will be greatly appreciated
Cheers legends

Not at all.
The nanners at the bottom won’t affect the tops.
Nanners usually only pollinate the bud they’re growing in or nearby calyxes.
And depending how many weeks you have left, even if pollinated it takes time for seeds to form.
And some Nanners are sterile.
You’re doing the right thing. Keep doing what you’re doing.

Sorry guys these pics are of the unaffected top buds, lights are off atm I'll upload a new pic once I wake her up, cheers heaps for the reassurance though, also I was told this was a grand daddy purple but the pics iv seen on forums of other GDP, the bud formation is remarkably different on each plant, I didnt get my seeds from a seed bank ( plz dont hate me ) any ideas if my plant is actually a GDP or what strain it resembles from your own experiences?

Also found found a single seed pod, no other buds are affected on the plant, would this seed be what you professionals call a fully feminized seed ? Or is this the signs iv been dreading and my plant has hermed on me ?

No fan set up on this run legend, ventilation/fresh air flow is good enough in the cupboard/room , plus I'm not gonna lie my friend it's my first grow and have been reluctant to invest in a proper setup because I was sceptical on the technology of led lights and if they actually produced results they claimed, so I'm kinda winging this first run with a light, a seed, some potting mix and nutes, but after this run, with my experience and seeing first hand how my expectations have been blown away, I'm going to get a proper setup

I (and everyone) comes across Nanners from time to time.
What I’ve never come across is a nanner that pollinates a whole plant let alone a whole room.
They don’t produce pollen anywhere near the amount male flowers do, and what pollen they do produce is not very mobile. If they pollinate anything, it’s almost always the bud they’re growing from.
As long as you identify and remove them, you’re not going to get many seeds.
Like others have said, just ride it out and keep plucking.

anthers can most definitely pollinate a room

I’m surprised to hear you say that.
Maybe if the grower is totally oblivious and the plants are masturbating at the rate of blindness.
But personally, in my small grow space, I’ve never seen them even produce noticeable pollen grains.
I pluck them before they even get the chance.

Pluck until you can’t take it no more, then whack it and begin anew. You a re close to “Emergency Harvest Window”.
