Has this been polinated?

How long has it been flowering? They do eventually turn brown on their own too. Do you have males or are you outdoors with dank neighbors? It's gonna be hard to say until harvest.

I can confirm that it has. I pulled off one of the bracts and there was indeed a seed. But could that also just mean it's a hermie? Needless to say its outa here. Here's a pic of my other girls for a good note.. look where the other one was. Notice the less growth on the plant behind it.

If you didn't see male parts yanking it doesn't help you. If the pollen is from another plant in your garden you may wanna do a comb over. A pollinated female is no danger to your crop unless she hermed.

Ah, I don't know a lot about how much stress affects an auto. It sounds like they herm more easily from stress right before flower than a photo, but I have NO experience on whether that is the case. Hope it is just some pollen on the wind and not one of your plants herming!

How would I tell the difference between a hermie or if she was polinated? For the future. We have a problem with seeds here since the massive hemp operations. It was not producing right is why I didnt mind yanking it out. And it was blocking another. I put them to close together this year.

A hermie will be either "bananas" that usually grow out of the buds themselves and are longer and thinner than a calyx, or male pollen sacs that have tiny stems and then a cluster of little balls.

Pollinated calyxes are just more swollen versions of what you see elsewhere on your buds, and eventually if the seeds mature they may start peeking out before harvest. The only downside to keeping a pollinated plant around if you do not want the seeds is that processing really seeded bud sounds like a bitch and a half.
