Cant Stop Growing SEED BAGS!

So this will be my 12th grow and my third with SEED BAGS! I take such good care of my girls I have no idea what I’m doing wrong. They have all been the same seeds, strains and breeder (strawberry cough by Beaver Seeds.) I’m praying it’s genetics and not wrong doing on my part. Everything looks great, we’re in week 5 now and I’ve noticed that once again the bottom popcorn buds are nothing but seed bags. There are no signs of bananas or stress throughout the grow.

3 gallons. Fox Farm Ocean Forest. Distilled water with FF trio once a week. Cal-mag once a week as well. No other additives. Fully ventilated, proper Ph, temp and humidity in a 4x4.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!20231218_140304.jpg20231218_140356.jpg20231218_140407.jpg20231218_140417.jpg

There's no seeds though right, I had buds from a strain that looked like you would break up a bud to smoke and be all seeds but it was just plump calyxes. If no seeds would think ok.

Yeah I know what you guys mean though. “False seed pods”. Basically all swelled up and looks like there is a plump seed, but otherwise hollow. Lower buds especially are all wispy and mostly hollow. It can happen all the sudden for reasons unknown, even to known genetics if I recall from reading other threads on the subject.

. Even worse, sometimes the inner ovule or whatever parts will grow bigger, and you’ll end up with a bunch of little hard flecks inside the pods, kinda like mini seeds.

Its almost like the plant pretends there are seeds, and tries to nurture them anyway, even though there isn’t. I dunno why it happens. Maybe its like a last ditch effort to plump up bigger to have a better chance getting knocked up by some stray pollen floating around..

Many years ago I was on a trip through the southern cone of America being able to smoke a joint in Assunción del Paraguay, bought as street smoke and brought some seeds home, planting them in an indoor grow room.
That plant grew wild, shapeless, hard to control with pruning and LST. It was the ugliest plant I planted, had a very bitter taste, like boldo (bilberry) tea. It probably should have been planted for a long time to reproduce and understand how that genetics worked. Unfortunately I lost it and when I returned to the place, I didn't find this smoke, it had been replaced by plants like skunk. That was a sort of landrace completely different from Manga Rosa, Punto Rojo, Colombian Gold or Bahia Black Head (Cabeça de Nego, from White Widow), known South American landrace strains, which are from around -10/+10 latitudes.
Planting random bagseeds can bring quite surprising results.
