Bananas

[Donkey Dick]

I have a plant 8 weeks into flowering using HPS red spectrum light and DWC. My tricomes are still clear but I didn't see the nanners until it was too late. There are a few seeds already in my buds. So what should I do? Wait for tricomes to look milky or should I harvest immediately with no flush or flush then harvest? It's my first plant and it's just for my use.

There are a lot of things to consider to answer you correctly. If it's not your only plant...cover before moving and treat it as if it were an armed explosive...if it is your only plant you can try to pick out the bananas if they haven't opened...if they are open and have pollinated a lot of your bud you may want to harvest before more seeds are created. Takes 3-4 weeks after pollination. As far as flushing I guess would depend on your nutrients.

Ps if you harvest while tricomes are clear it will produce a speedy paranoid high... This may help

If only plant, I would pull the nanners with tweezers...takes 6 wks to make a seed

Thank you for the information and advise. I'm going to pluck as many of em as I can start my flush and hope the plant uses all its stored nutes to mature in a couple of weeks.

TBH I wouldnt rush it...like I said..takes 6wks to make seeds...and I assume you are sum what close...I say let her ride

It's your first plant and it's for personal use, so I'd finish it. Pick the nanner off that you can and learn from the hermie. You'll still harvest something smokable, you'll just have to clean the seeds out of your bud before you smoke it. Plus you'll have some seeds to play around with.

Yea let it go. It will still smoke good.

If it's fertilized it self I would personally stay away from the seeds. I've read that it just makes clones of itself....if it pollinated a regular female then you will have fem seeds!

I just want to thank you all for the information and advise. I'm not as worried it now that I know I will still get some decent smoke. My next grow I'm using beter seeds at least I hope so I bought them online. This seed came from buds that grew out doors and it seemed to realy take off and really got to big for my grow space. That's probably how it got stressed.
