I already had this plant pollinated bvy a hermie, its been in flower a long time.. 2.5 months maybe?

and i saw bananas on the buds, they are bright yellow easy to spot when i was looking for mold

my buds on this plant are huge. size of my arms, thick too...

so is it screwed or just pick the bananas off and harvest?

One of mine had bananas since second week flowering. It pollinated two other plants out of seven totaling 3 pollinated. Not as many as one or two that I can spot on the others but the one with bananas had a moderate amount mature seeds. It wasn't 'til its seventh week(yesterday) that I decided to chop it down instead of its watering due. Too many bananas were were grown overnight before he/r chop. Got tired of snipping 'em off. Buds smoked really nice and properly right off the branch -no ferts were used one this on and it was already kinda dry. I'm smoking some right now. Great freakin smoke, surprisingly heavy on the stoney side. Anyways, my hermed plant gave me opportunity to do some manicure dry/curing practice before the main harvests for the rest of the grow and abundant smoke to hold me over.

Plants that carry the trait to go hermy, like plants grown from female seeds, usally show male flowers at 2-3 weeks. Only 2 or 4 pair, and half way down the stem, often why they are overlooked and missed, until seeds show up. Its common for female plants, that are in the late stages of flowering to produce male flowers for self preservation. Plants grown from hermy seed, produce hermy plants, dont use hermy seeds if ur breeding.

what if a hermie pollinated my plants
and they made seeds
r those considered hermie seeds?
or just the seeds OFF the hermie plant itself?

It's genetics, of course the seed could carry the hermaphroditic gene or intersexual
gene, why even risk it. All feminized seeds are hermaphroditic, or Intersexual at
least.
