Naner maturity

Are these mature enough to pollinate other plants? I had some autos going in a veg rooms to use up some extra space, I accidently neglected an Afghani auto and the bottom portion decided to throw out nanaers on the bottom. I know naners can pollinate but can they this early on? I'm only week 3 on flower on this Afghani, just noticed the naners and cut the lower branches for obvious reasons.

I don't think so mate, they look like they are pretty close though. The last one does look like it opened but only just!

I thought so too. I believe that's just one with multiple naners sticking out like the 2nd picture. Is there a time frame they usually start to throw out pollen? I was gonna cut down the whole plant but I only noticed it on the bottom portions so i was gonna wait and see if it got worse before i trash the whole plant

Yeah I reckon you're safe at the moment. Usually, once the balls bulge, you've got a few days before they release hey.
 
If they’ve open you can assume some pollen has been released. When I grow males for breeding, they start emitting pollen as soon as the flowers open like that middle one. I’d cut off the nanners ASAP and keep a close eye on the rest of the plant.

Yeah I just chopped it. I got too stressed fron the worry of losing 100s in genetics. My other veged plants aren't showing pistols yet so hopefully they won't be pollinated by that nightmare

If your other plants are still in veg and haven’t developed pistils then you’re in the clear, nothing to be pollinated.
 
Im not sure if this is another one too here in my flowering room
