Hey guess I'm willing to bet my left nut that these are bananas, is there any chance I spotted it in time before I pollinated my entire tent!!! I've scoured every other plant and can't find any other bananasCM180130-204527001.jpg CM180130-204534002.jpg

I have already moved this girl (If u can call it a girl!) Out of the grow room! My second question is should I chop her now! And dry her somewhere else or should I let it finish in a dark closet in another room? Or should I just burn that bitch with a fucking flame thrower!!!!

"You don't have nanners." (But really you do)
If it's just those couple, mist everything with water well, to deactivate pollen. Pluck those few and watch her like a hawk. Depends how quick you caught them. May end up with immature "seedlets" in just that bud, maybe fertilized whole tent if fan hitting them direct. Hard to say.

Could I just Harvest it now? And if I spray the whole tent won't that lead to bud rot on all my other girls? I was always told to never spray once mid way through flower!

And I've counted over 10 nanners!!!

You're probably fine. Just do as Possum1 stated. Carefully pluck them and mist to deactivate. After a day you can crank up the fans and you shouldn't have problems with budrot.
If you have a lot of them, you might want to just chop it. It looks about done.

I really don't know man. I'm a newb too, and there's just a lot of it depends. I'm sure other will be along to help.
I just know water mist will kill what pollen is released. If you don't have regular high humidity troubles, or history of bud mold, I wouldn't think one surface misting would be that likely to induce it.
Plant looks decently far along (and a nice looking bud) but without seeing trichromes...

OK I sprayed all plants heavy, now how should I dry then so not to cause any more issues just a few fans? And maybe open some doors? Anything else I can do and thanks for the help guys!!!

You really only need to lightly mist everything. IME, the pollen from late nanners is more often than not, sterile. Its the full on balls releasing its load in early to mid flower that can screw things up.
If you hosed them down you should probably get some air flow going. The idea of a light misting is so you don't have to crank your fans right away.
Slow down. Carefully pluck and keep a close eye on it.
Is anything else showing signs of stress or do you think this is strain related?

Yep, run fans and ventilate room/tent to drop humidity back down.
That's about it. What's done is done.
If you think the whole plant was pollinated, just chop now as it'll just put all energy to growing seeds to ruin buds.
If she's not totally mature, you'll still get high by the looks of her, just some anxiety and paranoia chances.
I plucked a few buds early along the way, and thought it was a fun/unique high. But did get a little paranoid.
Sorry for your tough luck. She was a nice looking bud.

Spraying them is no different than rain in their natural environment, outside. Just put a fan on them. Monitor humidity. It will be fine.

No it can't be stress related Temps and humidity have been perfect and no issues with light or burning or anything for that matter it's been a very smooth cycle!

I think you'll be fine. I had a purple kush many years ago that would throw them about a week before chop. I took a pair of tweezers and flashlight (makes them easier to see even under HID) and plucked them. I never did find any seeds.
I recently had a Chem Guava D throw a couple late in flower and again, plucked with no seeds. Its clones never threw any nanners.
Its probably just genetics. What strain is this?

Those are nanners but I've never seen the banana looking nanner type of male flower produce pollen. I'd watch it close for the regular type of male flower but if you don't see those then you don't have anything to worry about.

That right, i doubt that buds nearly ready are going to start producing seeds which takes 6 weeks min. The nanners are small, turn the fans off and only run a dehumidifier.
Dont spray anything on them , buds at this stage are too vulnerable to moisture and mold.

I have a tahoe that throws these little nanners late. they are always sterile and never cause an issue.Like someone said earlier, it's the actual hermie plants that throw balls early that are trouble.

Plus, your plant looks damn near finished anyway.

OK, I won't then.

They do but, are for the most part, only 15% viable. They tend to not work well and/or travel well either. IF they were to pollinate a calyx and form seeds. It would only be from a calyx right next to it.
I'm beginning to believe for these late nanners to work, they have to pollintate by contacting the calyx to transfer the pollen. That is still just theory.....

Now I have seen early stress selfies (S1 seeds) pop a shit ton of "nanners" that are more grouped and enlongated. These are more viable but, the pollen doesn't travel well with out a good breeze (plants at about 3 ft from them didn't get any pollination.)

Chop it.
Don't risk bud rot by spraying water unless you know your airflow is very good. Very very very good.

It can pollinate everything.
Read the above = NO it won't!

It's so far down the road in bloom. He's too near harvest for any real viable seeding to happen......

That pheno is most likely expressing from how long it's run, combined with a minor expression of the trait to do so.

ALL cannabis can "herm" ! It's in their genetic make-up....

There is NO truly stable strain! Run one long enough, It'll throw some nanners.......

How long have those plants been running since the flip?

I have to laugh at all the panic and dumb "solutions" to a few nanners showing up. Spray the plant with water, lol. Some said possible mold - I agree, not worth the risk at this point!

Just pluck'em and carry on.....Late bloom nanners in the last week or so. Whoop de doo!
