i went threw this a couple years ago...harvest a 7ft monster and found 2 seeds...WTF right?! lol. had to dig to find the answer. Its a ultra rare occasion that when a plant feels that is species is goning to go extinct it will actually make a couple seeds to try to reproduce it self. I know it sounds wild but it is true. i couldnt beleave it till i saw it.

Does this happen under normal conditions or stressed?

2) RHODELISATION
This is the name the breeder Soma gave to the process by where a very mature female at the end of her life throws off a few pollen bananas. This resulting pollen is feminised, but as if it had been induced by old age rather than CS. This doesn't always happen, it takes a very long time for it to happen, it usually requires taking a female beyond her usual harvest window, and it doesn't result in much pollen at all, so it's very much hit-and-miss unfortunately.
So if you over grow your plants they will try to polinate itself for survival.
I took this from the article on how to make feminized seeds. It is a good read and I don't want to take credit for it so here is the site.

Nice! THanks!! Makes a lot of sense. I actually did harvest a little late. THe seed I found was very small. Thanks again for the quick replies!

Totally agree.... if you let them go to long they will force seed themselves... Not all plants but all will
