cut them off or you could bag them and get seed off just your lower branches? bagging of course to make it so they're fertilization is limited. how close are your trichs to harvest?

cover them with paper bags them so that it confines the polin to those branches, so only those fertilize, however im kinda wondering if 8 weeks in is enough time for them to produce seeds before harvest, but not sure, someone else would probably have to chime in on that one.

really not sure if its going to even commit resine to forming seeds this far along, how much longer do you project for your strain to be in flower before harvest? It really may not matter other than spreading pollin around the rest of your grow room and having to pull everything out for a good wipe down if you let them crack. Also dont know how hard up you are for seeds, i tend to only clone so dont mess with males or hermies but maybe once a year if even that. I say bag them, let lower buds develop whether they seed or not just so you can salvage them and smoke them anyhow. but i hate to waste. you may have bud coming out your ears for all i know and wouldnt miss them much.

should I just leave the branches since I have a little more than a week left? also the pod i broke open was clear inside...does that happen before the pollen is produced?

Those pods filled with liquid should just be swollen calyx's. You are fine don't worry about it, you are too late into flowering for anything to happen anyway.
