A few seeds isn't too big of a deal. A good lesson that nanners or a pollen sac can easily hide from you, even when inspecting for them daily. The local area of any seed may have been negatively impacted as far as thc/quality, but the overall plant still developed normally (relative to our wants). The vast majority of it you won't tell a difference unless it was heavily seeded all over. Yes, pollination could have reduced potential stretch, assuming nothing else in your environment was the cause, but this would also indicate a lot more than a handful of seeds if that is the case. If it isn't heavily seeded, look to other causes. If it is heavily seeded, it is potentially the cause. I do fem breeding cycles each year the last 4 years or so. There is a definitely effect at the point of pollination. The plant definitely switches gears after heavy pollination and focuses on seed development. buds that would normally get fatter don't. stretch ends and it's about a week earlier than normal due to my timing (STS-hermie is 7-8 days deeper into flower than the pollen-receivers). They receive pollen around FD21 and it basically stops bud development and last week of stretch is nonexistent.

I call them "stress seeds" If there are a few keep them. They are not necessarily hermies. Once I had a single seed in a bud. It grew into a beautiful female and I regenerated her three times before getting pollinated by a male. Whatever trips your trigger. Shit Happens!

There must have been at least one male flower somewhere on the plant. If they are mature seeds, pollination would have occurred roughly 5 weeks prior. Feminised plants/seeds are not guaranteed to be 100% stable and can hermie at any time. Excessive defoliation will retard stretching.

Self preservation. Throw away the seeds and smoke the bud.

If you’re asking why it didn’t stretch it’s because of the lighting you gave it b4 stretch and durring. You want to have kinda lower lighting a few days b4 you put into stretch let the plant get some vigor and then flip it to flower and don’t ramp up the light till it’s halfway done with the stretch

There are a few different reasons. The short answer is that nature is always trying to find a way to continue and to reproduce. The longer answers are that it could be that uou flowered her a week too long or so. Sometimes overly mature plants will decide to produce seeds once they realize they havent been pollinated and will self themselves or create S1 seeds. My rs11 clone did this. Or it couldve been stress, like light leaks or even nutrient issues and training stress but thats not as common. The other options are that your plant was actually pollinated somehow, either by itself, as in being a hermie or by another plant that may have been a hermie. Ive also heard of people who have had their plants pollinated by a neighbors that was miles away. Im sure you could even track in pollen on your clothes from some plants outside somewhere. I am probably missing a couple reason but sometimes its good to find a seed or two depending on how you look at

Wenn das die Anzeige Pflanze war, dann ist sie wohl gezwidert und hat irgendwo eine männliche Blüte entwickelt. Wenn du noch mehr hast kontrolliere diese auch, aber das kann passieren, entweder durch Stress oder als ultimativen Versuch sich vortzupflazen.

If there are seeds then it was pollinated, to what extent is to be determined by you. I would wonder where the pollen came from. If it was external exposure, you likely wouldn't have just a few seeds (like if you were near a commercial hemp farm growing outdoors/a friend who was breeding didn't shower and you let him near your tent/you were breeding and not handling pollen well). Chances are that it was internal exposure. If you have no males or intersex flowers or hermies that you know of, then I image you missed some nanners on this plant. I do not find it that weird when a plant throws out a last ditch attempt to pollinate itself (an intersex flower site on a female plant). IME, when plants do this it is usually a moot point as your harvest window and the seed development timeline is way off. If you have viable seeds, that means you missed some fully formed nanners dropping pollen early. It is probably too late to verify that was the case but the spread between best case scenario and worst case scenario is not acceptable IMO. For me, strains that drop pollen from intersex flower sites early enough to develop viable seeds are an immediate no go/never ever/destroy them now. You'd be doing a disservice to the community by keeping those seeds in the genepool as you would effectively be genetically selecting for this strait - which is pretty undesirable IMO. Normally you'd also extend 1-3 weeks past your typical flower harvest window to harvest strong, viable beans. Another reason I wouldn't consider the seedstock to be of keeper-quality. Not trying to rain on your parade. If these are your first seeds, def keep em bro and def pop some of em; just try to take care of the genepool and think of the big picture when sharing the seeds with friends/cuttings of the seeds/or breeding with it further.
