Feminized plants produced seeds from stress

DegenMJ
DegenMJstarted grow question 10 months ago
Several of the plants in my grow tent produced seeds from stress and I didn't notice until I chopped them down. Among 3 of the plants I now have 30+ seeds. Are these any good? Under the endoscope they appear to have a coating. Pollen? Mildew? Normal?

I always err on the side of caution. If this isn't a strain you've cloned and grown for a period of time you do t know if it was stress or genetics that caused the Hermie. If it's genetics then the seeds are junk. If it's stress then they are fine, how do people think you create feminized seeds? You stress a female with various techniques, colloidal silver etc. Anyways, the coloration is quite strange. As others have pointed out I'd bleach the area to cleanse and destroy any pollen left behind and roll on. I just had a grow that one in 16 of my plants decided to Hermie on me and I didn't catch it in time so I had seeds as well. It was simply one genetic misfit in the room. Gotta just pay close attention during flower. If you think it was stress the two most common causes are your lights were too close at some point or the temp got too hot. Light stress and heat stress trigger it more than anything else but if those weren't a possibility then it's likely just a matter of genetics.

Doubtful they're seeds caused from stress. Do u mean they seeded due to stress & getting nanner/hermie only way all plants r few are seeded. It really is easy. 1 sac can release enuf pollen for tat amount of seeds and easily missed. In future during flower of any plant tats in said r coning into that stage. Needs regular checks. I suggest you bleach ur tent. Wipe down ur fans blades and remove any hairs as they hold pollen.. Rid the seeds. They're useless. Too high risk and not worth it.. Good luck

coating is normal the extra growth on the first pic is weird. They're also a colour I don't see to often in seeds, green, they might be a bit immature and not grow well but test em out. Your main issue is finding how they got pollinated. Are you sure it was a self pollination, or could pollen have gotten into the grow from someplace else?? Knowing the origin is key. If it was pollinated by a hemi plant not worth growing, if it was pollinated by a male plant, 50/50 male to female reg seed, if it was pollinated by an photoperiod then the seed will no longer be autos. and who know the genetics of the other plant if it was unknown. You can 100% grow out the seeds it made. its a S1 if it was from its self. the genetics should be pretty stable if the breeder did not interbreed the shit out of it. but there is always the chance it does not go well. Good Luck!
