Seeds in buds

So I just harvested 40 plants and in 2 of the plants I found about 6 seeds which I'm stumped about the rest came out good no seeds so I'm thinking that plant hermed or they had bad genetics and seeded and the bud on them weren't great like the others terps yes but too fluffy and loose so was bit of a bummer but 2 out of 40 isnt bad and there a different strain to the rest so might be genetic also

Plants from seed have a higher tendency to want to self procreate. It's in the plants nature to preserve it self. The good thing is the nanner pollination will be fems.

Can’t tell you for certain but if they’re photos and you took cuts (clones) the clones should be more stable and not grow nanners.
Oh OK I see that puts some of my nerves on my next run abit lower thanks if there is purple stems is that from some kind of stress or can that be just the strain I'm really not liking this strain but I did do afew clones which I kind of forgot to name lol so yeah bit worried about that I have since named them all but yeah

I now have 6 plants starting the 7th week of flower. 2 of the plants are from seeds and were easily 5 months old at the 12 &12 flip. In these 2, are where I see these dang "bananas". They are naked, meaning they have no pollen sac cover - so the forming pollen grains are kinda exposed I guess.

I dont see them in the clones that I took from these seed grown mothers. So in this grow, the flower time seems to accelerate at about week 5 and then the buds really swell and produce white hairs (stigmas). The hairs have about gone by week 7, and turned brown. Still a few white, but not many.

I dont think there is time for this pollen or seeds to mature before harvest at this stage.
But these naners surprised me and humble me since I cant seem to control them in this 2nd grow from the old seed plants. I may only use the clones from now on................

The seed plants are taller and have the naners in not more than 4 or 5 of the top buds but I am sure I am missing some of the naners in them.

So these naners may only produce female seeds if I gave them a chance?
Naners bother me.......... but these seem weak

So if a female gets pollinated by its self those seeds are female is that right or are they 50 50. And won't those seeds produce more nanners from the same kind of gene pool as its mother was

I wish I knew the answer. In my experience those nanners on seed plants (at that late stage of growth) never have produced seed which takes 5 or 6 weeks to develop. the naners in those pics never had viable pollen and no seeds were produced.
So in this case they were a non-issue but still were only on the 2 seed plants and not the other 4 clones.......

those plants are now at the beginning of the 9th week of flower and may have another week to go. No more naners have been found and the buds are getting pretty blessed large. I should post a pic but they are in the dark now.......
