Hey guys. I believe this is a Hermie. After the stretch i started defoliation and I guess it was from that. What should I do now?

Would you confirm it hermed? I don't see any bannans.. Just mini seed pods I guess? Should I cut it down now?Damn that sucks. Smoke it and pick the seeds out or make some good hash
I will try opening one of them later on.are their seeds in the pods?
I've checked pictures of hermie online and don't see any nanners or balls like the pics had. So I'm hoping sativied is right! Still need to check those pods later tonight.Every flowering female should develop 'seed pods' or "calyxes" that would produce seeds only if pollinated...you're fine as long as there isn't any pollen around...nanners r a different story..
Thanks for your input! Already made my day Lol. This is my 3rd plant and definitely not as frosty as the others. And yeah it doesn't smell strong at all. So I still want to open a seed pod just to see. Would something be inside it or just empty? I remember in the past I had a plant and opened a pod and saw a mini ball but there were very few of pods compared to this plant. Its 9 weeks and I want to push it to 11.I don't see anything that indicates it's a hermie. I do see what may give the wrong impression, which is those frostless calyxes. I had that on a plant (ICE) earlier this year. Looks like undeveloped seeds but are calyxes with no trichomes on them. I bet it won't smell very strong. Anyway, as long as the calyxes include pistils (the white hairs coming out of them) you don't have to worry about it being a hermie.
if you actually popped it open what should it look like without pollination? white "seed" ?If the pistils that come out of it are white it's definitely empty. Well, not empty, it's not like they are really hollow if no seed is in it. It would require the pistil to capture a pollen grain to make a seed. The pistils turns brownish if that happened (over 24-48 hours).
If I let it 2 more weeks. Would those immature seeds get bigger and more developed ? Or does that require them to be pollinatedThose are immature seeds.
No, there's no immature seed that needs sperm to grow or something (animal-like) like that. It's mostly just bracts, leaves mutated throughout evolution to protect the female sex organs and seeds. They swell up making room for the seed if one develops in it (and that stops the development of some calyxes around it, to make room).if you actually popped it open what should it look like without pollination? white "seed" ?
Love the photos! Its very very clear to me now. Thank you!!Not the best pic,but same thing, ICE. They look very much like naked undeveloped seed, but they aren't.

Also ICE, but successfully pollinated bud, i.e. seeded:

nice post, i have split open a fair few colas over the years convinced i would find seeds inside .. but no seeds, some plants just have that lookNot the best pic,but same thing, ICE. They look very much like naked undeveloped seed, but they aren't.
