Im in my 7th week of flowering and so far most of the plant looks awesome, but i have this weird growth on the very top of one of my main cola's that almost looks like a pollen sack only place on the plant i see it, took a picture with my loop to get a close up but not best quality.

Well after closer inspection i found about 5 more buds that had them, plucked them off with tweezer and will hope for the best, guess worst case scenario ill get a few seeds, the bananas i did get off had not split yet and in another room under my loop i busted one and it had no pollen in it yet so maybe i will be done flowering before they open

Whats the likely hood this will pollenate and really actually grow seeds in the next 2 weeks? should i just chalk it up to an unstable strain let them finish and call it what it is? Also whats the best way to clean my grow room to assure there is no pollen left around after this grow?

Water destroys pollen, mist everything down with a spray bottle. Can use straight water, or a water/h202 mix, just spray and wipe everything.

As for getting seeds in the next 2 weeks, not likely. You may have the odd immature seed starting, but I wouldn't worry too much about it at this point. Just finish it out!

Thanks that is refreshing news.... From looking at my pictures taken today in your opinion they look like there getting close? Im thinking one more feeding of tigerbloom then straight water after that to flush them out.

I'd say your close, they are a week or two from being in a good harvest window. I wouldn't worry about giving them any more nutrients, ^^^ like buddy said, your leaves are a deep dark green, you could be over doing the nitrogen. If I was you I'd switch them over to water now and let them fade for the next week or so.

Damned Ole Nanners! If you do get seeds in 2 weeks, they'll only be mature enough make your smoke taste bad when they burn (they'll be tiny and hard to see) but you wouldn't wanna keep them anyways. Been there, good luck. Keep pluckin!
