My plants are flowering and noticed one of them has seeds. I know they're seeds b/c I pinched a few of them and opened them. The same plant has also a ton of hairs. So....is this a hermie, or can females produce seeds?

So, I can still keep it. There must b a male plant around. Anyone know how far pollen can travel? None of my other plans are males.

the pollen can travel thru the air for long distances (miles?) or can be tracked around by animals.

Thanks.

So, what if I start pulling the halfway produced seeds out of the plant w/tweezers so as not to damage the rest of the flower.

W/other plants, once a seed is produced the plant will pretty much stop flowering and dedicate all its energy/nutrients to seed production. Whaddya' think? Anyone ever tried this?

If the seeds are already growing, I don't think any tweezers are gonna help. The smoke could still be quite decent . . . if I had any idea what strain I was growing and this happened to me, and I wanted that strain, I'd probably grow 'em out? I mean, seeds cost more than weed, by weight.

I know, but this is my first time and it's a skunk bagseed. I have other seeds I've bought which I'll plant 4 later. I've been clipping seeds from the plants hoping for more bud production.
