Has this hermed on me again? Haven't found any nanners but the buds look strange to me and one has seed like bit at the top of a tiny nug. Any advice?
Herms?

Doesn't look abnormal to me? If you don't see nanners or ballsacks growing out of the branches then your good. Here are some examples of herms.

That looks herm to me.
Is your room completely light leak proof and are you running lights 12/12?
It's possible the genetics you purchased are prone to herming, I had that problem with ETHOS Mandarin Sunset I had 4 of 5 seeds herm in mid flower and they all had to be thrown away. Part of growing from seed and not clone.

I've never had this issue but when I changed to coco I've had herms everytime. The last 3 runsThat looks herm to me.

Ok so if coco was the change that started this as you think have you tried different brands of coco?
They don’t look like any sacks I have seen when I zoom in on the pics.
So have you only got this far into flower three times and had to start again?
Do they get worse in terms of obvious herm with pollen?
Best solution is to get seeds that don’t herm like some Grimm c99 is known not to herm so that’s what I would do.

Around this stage each time but I haven't started again, just ran them as I had nothing ready to replace it. By about week 5-6 there's normally noticeable nanners, then by the end they're everywhere. Seed production hasn't been bad though, get some but nothing that's worth writing home about. But the problem is more they stop stacking and swelling when it gets too bad and hurts yield obviously. I have cloned from a new seed for the next run but doesn't help now obviously haha. Just wanted to confirms my fears

Herms are genetic or caused by heavy stress, usually like I said in my previous post light leaks, an improper light cycle etc. I promise you coco didn't cause your plants to herm.
I had a HVAC Tech have to walk through my grow and this fucker shined his flashlight right on my plants in the dark and I'm not shitting you that little bit of light caused a few branches to herm, nanner and seed. I've had power outages where the flower room stayed dark and that was fine for days, no herms. When lights come on or light leaks into your grow space.... Game over.
