I found SEEDS!! Help!

After two months of flowering it was finally time to harvest. I noticed these little pockets on some of my flowers and didn't think much of it...until I started trimming. Pockets with black seeds to pockets with no seeds. They are all over.

These are Kush Master plants that I purchased from Nirvana Seeds. They were feminized seeds.

I would like to get some of your inputs on these plants. I realize that they are hermaphrodites but can they be herms from seeds or because they went through a shock?

I cloned many of them and want to put in a second batch but not until I receive an answer. I got so tired of separating buds from seeds that I want to throw all out.

Thanks for your help.

Feminized seeds doesn't mean 100% female 100% of the time.

Looks like yours got stressed possibly and hermied. Im sorry bro Ouch

Now you have seeds for your next grow...

No those are hermie seeds unless you want to grow a hermie plant

Hermie seeds will only grow hermie plants? If I'm using the clones, would they be herms as well?

Im not a clone novice or master but my guess would be yes they will show the same traits as the mother they came from

Dont say fuck just yet. like i said i dont clone so im not experienced in that area. but im about 75% sure yes they will hermie also. Wait for a master to chime in

can we still smoke this?

Go ahead. A very experienced grower at another forum firmly believes that seeded bud is more potent. Im not going to argue his theroies because he knows his shit.

so yes just pick seeds and smoke it. i meant thats what shwagg is. It will still get you hi bro

yes i know...just adding some humor...

I'm not so sure that the clones will hermie unless it's completely genetic. If it was stress induced then clones and seeds from the plant probably won't automatically be herms but they could have the 'fuck im stressed, time to grow balls' genes that your original had.

I've also heard that THC production is highest at seed pods, due to the plant trying to protect its offspring. No sources to back that up, just hearsay.

I'm just finding out that all my plants in the same room have seeds in them.

Could this be work of a male plant? I assumed that all plants that flower are female plants. Is it possible that the seeds are hermies to begin with and they infected other female plants?

also, do hermies create pollen sacks as well? and effect other plants in the room?

Yes. A hermie has both sexual reproductive parts and in plants they are fully functioning. A plant can literally fuck itself, its entire family and you all at once.

One hermie plant will ruin the whole crop?

Awesome bro! Stressed Hermies!!!!! Female seeds! Congrats!

Won't they be hermie plants again?

breeders use all kinds of cheap tricks to feminize seeds. If these seeds where produced from "stress induced" hermies it is likely the offspring will be more likely to hermie under similar conditions (essentially the feminized seeds, although directly selected for the lack of a y chromosome, have been indirectly selected to hermie under whatever stress condition the breeder used.)

The rule of thumb to avoid hermies is stability and consistency. Your seeds should be fine. More likely to make male flowers under similar stress conditions? definitely. But a complete waste? not at all. Something that can be appreciated about your seed stock is that as long as they came from genetics that were stabilize (not an F1 or random cross, but actually bred for uniformity) your seeds should be slightly more uniform than the original stock. Also, as long as they were feminized before, all of your seeds should be females as well.

If you need the crop don't hesitate to flower those clones, but be sure your grow room is stable and consistent (definitely try to figure out various potential sources of stress on the previous crop and try to minimize those potentials). For the future, look for better genetics that have been bred by long term breeders.

Anybody can get pollen mixed in with females then call themselves a breeder in order to make money by selling seeds or get caught up in the excitement of new crosses; but, its the guys that truly love the plant and that dedicate themselves day in and day out that are offering consistently good seed stock and uniform stable genetics.

Soma for example has sometimes allows plants to flower past peak ripeness and noticed that most genetics will produce sparse male flowers in the twilight of flowering life, as if in a last ditch effort to pass genetic material on to the next generation. This method does provide less pollen for potential crosses than other methods of male flower induction, but it does not genetically predisposition the daughter generation to have stress induced male flowers. Extra work, time, and patience are all required on the part of the breeder to produce a quality product, especially feminized seeds.

In today's market it is also required of the grower to put forth the extra work, time, and patience to find the breeders who really care.

Gutted for ya man!
but i have smoked some seeded smoke before i was well mashed, me m8 bought me a £10 bit 1g, opened it and found 8 seeds smoked it and man yer i was pretty mashed like, i wunt waste it i'd smoke it defo.
Peace!
