He doesn't like to post anywhere or even talk to anyone about his grow, he is very paranoid when it comes to his growing of cannabis.
He will view this post, I'm just making it for him and he'll let me respond if hes got something to say.

His question is..

"What exactly are in a female plants calyx?"

"If a plant is stressed into making seeds, how will they appear in a calyx?"

"Is the green or white stuff in a calyx a seed or bud?"

Apparently he googled and didn't find solid answers.

the calyx is the budd seeds are in the budd you cant stress a plan into making seeds it needs to be pollinated the stigmas are the white hairs and there out in the wind to catch pollen in the air the calyx is like the uterus of the plant

Calyxes can swell to the point that they look like they have a seed in it.
The white you see is ok. An immature seed starts out as green. A very small green seed, as it grows it will swell and turn brown/black/tan.
So if you are pulling out little green immature seeds then it did get some pollen recently.

Instead of us explaining to your friend have him search for his answers, this way pictures are included and everything. Not trying to be rude or anything like that, but when I started my growing I spent allot of time reading before I asked any questions.

He just only checked this thread and said you answered his question.
He googled the rest for a few hours and after searching high and low he said he found the rest.

I tried to give him advice myself, but he likes to take in as much opinions as he can and just round it out as to which is the most common answer.

Is this a Jack Herer you breeded yourself or a specific breeder? That sounds pretty sexy to me, I would pay for genetics like that.
It is a long-time strain given to me in clone fashion by a long-time medical grower I met through a political contact who's pro-cannabis in my area.

It's a safe bet if you buy seeds from bcbuddepot.com

You CAN stress many strains to produce pollen (bananas) or use colloidal silver.. so in that sense stress can make seeds.

Pistillate hairs come out of calyx and when pollen lands on them the calyx will be seeded.
