Just found these on my “girls” yesterday! There at 8 1/2-9 weeks into flower, I was trying to wait another week per the milky but not much amber trichomes. Do you think it started growing seeds? I got 3 other plants too no nanners so far but could they be contaminated now?
You are so close to harvest that I wouldn’t worry about it. Late development of nanners is fairly common. It’s biology making a last-ditch attempt to perpetuate the species.

Usually an indicator of too much light that late in flower. What’s your light numbers? Height, ppf, etc?

I’m running HLG 650R at 30-32” throughout flowering till 2-4. days ago I lowered it to 28” to raise the ppfd slightly. Which was 850 at the corners and 1000 at the center of the plants at 30”. I suppose your spot on with the diagnosis. I was trying to boost up the amber getting impatient with seedlings waiting for a home.
So what’s all the new growth I’m seeing on this plant. I thought it was just the buds getting fatter, now I’m worried it’s producing seeds inside. I really don’t know much about the hermies yet
What do you think of this girl, she’s setting next to the problem child. It has the same looking new growth
Late pistil development is common at higher lighting levels. I get them and just cut them off at harvest, as the trichomes will not be mature on the newer calyxes.

Thanks sounds like it’s Lights Out for these gals! Just curious do U believe 24-48 hours darkness helps before cutting them down?
Some call that bro science.
If you take a plant’s light away, you take away its energy source to generate and maintain trichomes.
