Help with pollen question

Hi I have a Blue dream in flower that is at its last week's 10 weeks and yesterday I gave it a check up and found
Nanners towards the lower bottom of the plant . Wanted to know if I can use that pollen for seed production.

It's pretty cheap and easy to just buy pollen and then you're getting either legit male pollen or female pollen that was intentionally made by reversing a female. Nanners in late flower is not what I'd want to be breeding with as all the progeny will carry that gene forward. Just grab some pollen from Strainly or DC Seed Exchange has had two really good pollen drops this year.

I think I've heard it's better to reverse them than use nanner pollen, but I've heard mixed things. I'm pretty sure all the strains with Chem in them originally came from nanners that pollinated a crop. I can tell you from experience the original Chem 91 likes to throw nanners.

Yes you can if you can get some actual viable pollen from them. The first cross I ever made was from late flower nanners. I used that pollen on a different strain that was just a few weeks into flower and ready for pollen. I got lots of seeds and grew them for years. Not a single one of those turned hermie and I never noticed any nanners on those plants.

I've read different opinions on whether or not the herm tendency transmits to the offspring but it's good to hear practical results from multiple grows. It's hard to decipher some of the articles that get really technical for me. I've just always gone with better safe than sorry to avoid issues.

I had a cut of Blue Rasberry Truffle that would throw a couple nanners at the end of flower. Awesome weed and none of the seeds have thrown nanners yet. Granted I have only grown one out. :bigjoint:
 
Thank you guys for your answers
Gonna try the pollen from the nanners pollen from the blue dream it's because IAM running out of seeds and nutrients super expensive here in Mexico and watering in coco is a headache trying to get seeds from all my plants before I take a break and look whether I grow in soil

And the blue dream welll
It pistilated threw out all flower and airy buds .will that pass on to new seeds?

This book by Soma has a chapter on using nanner pollen for seeds. He calls it Age Feminization Technique (AFT) "After growing crop after crop of the same plants in the same conditions, I noticed that if I flowered the plants 10-14 days longer than usual, they developed male flowers. In AFT, plants are grown 10-14 days longer to induce male flowers".: Organic Marijuana, Soma Style: The Pleasures of Cultivating Connoisseur Cannabis ( see chapter 10 The Soma Way of Female Seeds )
