If you are getting seeds your plants are being pollinated. A female plant cannot produce seed without pollen, any more than a woman can have a baby without sperm.

You either have a hermie, or pollen is being blown from a male nearby.

Have a good look for any male flowers - it only takes one to appear unnoticed.

Any of your neighbours grow and hasn´t cleared out the males?

I found 2 seeds on my girls this year - wind-blown pollen.

start your naner search at the bottom of the plant and work your way up. there is a hermie somewhere in the bunch. if they are absolutly packed with seeds its not worth letting them go but if you only have a few seeds youll be fine. also make sure there is seeds in the pods, sometimes calexes will swell a little premature and look like they are seeded.

I don´t think the existence of any hermies has yet even been confirmed by the OP.
yeah im just assuming sence is so late in the season a plant outside that was 4 weeks wouldnt be done till december.


edit: haha i know im also risking making an ass out of myself assuming he lives in the states

So am i right in thinking that if i had 1 hermaphrodite that could then turn all the rest the same?
it wont turn them hermie but it can polinate them. if you catch them earlie and pick off the nanners you can prevent alot of seeds. i found one seed out of 5 ounces on my last grow and had one that kept trying to hermie on me, there is also a product called dutch master reverse that people say works wonderfully but your supposed to use it when you begin flowering. if you have a hermie that is getting out of control and you cant find all of the nanners dont hesitate to kill it. make sure to spray it with water before you cut it down to help prevent opened polen sacks from spreading more polin into your room.
