What Dank said, I have had plants that produced one banana and then behaved normally and plants that just wanted to produce many bananas. Sometimes you can tell by looking at the "health" of the banana or the shape etc. A plant that is likely to produce more bananas will initially produce a pod that looks healthy and very much like what a true male would produce. A plant that is just throwing a couple will generally produce a feeble looking thin (non football shaped) pod. This is just my general rule from experience not set in stone by any means.

You should look over the whole plant. In my experience the weak/feeble pods generally develop right in the top buds and the more "true" hermies will develop pods at internodes and/or will be raised on small stems as well.

Just try to catch them early, check thoroughly every other day.

just keep a close eye out. They come out overnight it seems like. Hell I have went to bed after picking tons of those fuckers all to wake up with one covered. shit herm.jpg herm 2.jpg herm.jpg and they will most defiantly pollinate any other females in that room if any.
I cant find any now but ill h abe to check when the light go on again

I tweez em out too. Sometimes they grow within the bud and are extremely hard to spot and get at, could be the case for you idk. I would think this is with strains that grow extremely dense nugs, I don't have experience with it but have read about other growers dealing with it.

They look in the range of "normal" to me without knowing all the details of your grow. Maybe slightly behind where mine usually are but my saying that is being a bit nit picky... Some strains put the weight on more evenly throughout the grow and some pack on a lot of weight right at the end. They look good man.

It sounds like you are a new grower, if that is the case you beat my first grow by a mile...

yes. if you cleaned your grow room really good, then you shouldn't have anything to worry about cross pollination happening again ;)
