Hello, Day 17 of flower since 12h switch on my photoperiods. Inspecting the plants tonight i noticed this seed on a little branch, between the nodes. Is it a seed? Looks like the only one on the whole plant. Thanks.

Picture one shows a male flower, not a seed. You have to watch this plant carefully, it may be a hermaphrodite, thereby risking pollinating the other plants and ending up with seeds everywhere. Seeds from hermaphrodite plants will be nearly all hermaphrodites themselves, due to the genetic dominance of the hermaphrodite genes. The seeds will not be fems, but regular hermies, so no good for anything really. Sometimes a plant will produce a very limited number of male flowers (1-6) and they are easy to remove as they appear, other times you will get a full blown hermie that produces 100s of male flowers, in which case the only safe thing to do is to place it in the garbage. Picture 2,3 and 4 don't show anything notable. Hope this helps, Organoman.

That seems to be a pollen sack. It happens quite often. I found one in my last indoor, prayed for some seeds but none at the end. So You shouldn't worry.

Definitely at least one pollen sack, you can try to quickly nip it off and just keep an eye on it to see if any more appear. If you get it off early enough and more don't come, it basically is back to fem and won't get pollinated. If more keep coming, better evacuate it asap.
