Is it a nanner

Brilliant. 3 months of work down the shitter.

Any recommendations?
Should I leave it to finish (it's been 7 weeks, so I guess around 4 more weeks), or should I just destroy it and start from scratch? I only have one plant, it's in the DWC.

I run aircon, water chiller, air pumps, inline extractor fan, and two fans in the tent, and I change/add water every 3 days with nutes and hydroguard.
Is it worth it? I don't mind few seeds in the bud, but if the buds going to be 70% ruined, I don't think it's worth paying for electricity one more month and wasting time on it?

Thanks.

Just leave it and let it mature. Especially since you only have 1 plant. You can pick off the nanners you see though.

Is it to late for him to spray them with water to help kill any pollen they might have released or could be releasing? I haven't had a lot of dealings with them but I've heard spraying them helps.

Thanks for the idea. I just sprayed it.
Should I spray like daily/weekly, or is it just once enough?

I get it won't help me much, but any bit helps I guess at this point.

Make sure it's our of the tent or it's right before lights out otherwise you will burn the plant from the water reflection of the lights.

As far as the frequency, I'm really not sure. That's why I asked it as a question hoping another member would jump in with some more experience in herming plants. It's been 3 years since I've had a nanner on mine, I've been lucky.

Some strains are more prone to nanners. And stress can trigger them. The GSC and Chem strains are a couple more prone to nanners.

What about spraying with water to kill any pollen @PadawanWarrior ? Should he be doing that to try and keep the ones he has from releasing pollen and or killing off the pollen they do release? Is their something else he could do to render the pollen sterile without hurting the buds at this point? Thanks

I don't like spraying anything during flower personally. But some do it. Some nanners are sterile also. I wouldn't worry at all with just that one plant. Afterwards he can spray the room down with water if he wants to kill the pollen. Might as well add a little bleach or something to the spray too for the hell of it. But I don't care much about a nanner here or there occasionally anymore.

Cool. He had just said some had opened up and I was thinking maybe if he caught it early enough he could stop the pollen from forming seeds if it was actually not sterile
Thanks.
OP, there's some advice from a more experienced grower. I'd make sure they don't burn if you sprayed them in the tent and then really give the tent a good cleaning with a bleach and water spray down in between runs to kill any pollen you might have left over. I grew up smoking seeded weed. There's nothing wrong with it. Just a little bit of a hassle. Sorry you have to deal with it though.
