Holy Nanners Batman! Should harvest early?

So I went in and started checking my ‘wedding cake’ fem, and I noticed a bundle of nanners on one cola, started to examine others and noticed the odd one spread through out each cola.

Should I harvest early and use for hash material? Can’t risk pollen being airborne as I’m an indoor grower with another Fem Speed Bud in week 4 flower.

You could try to pick them out. Dip tweezers in water than snatch deep st base of those bananas. Most likely have a few seeds but you can manage it.

the shitty thing is this early in flower you will be picking nanners everyday. But can be done. I had a big spread of gorilla glue4 about 4 years after the hype. Whole thing was horrible bananas. Butchecked daily plucked nonstop and ended up with decent harvest. Had seeds. No buds full. Just maybe 1 or 2 in a quarter Or so
Edit:make sure to put the plucked ones in water cup right away. Snd turn of fans while plucking.

Damn.. so I guess my next question is:
should I leave it be and try to hand pick the nanners everyday as mentioned, or
harvest early?
Sounds like I’m guaranteed seeds either way, though, I’ve heard it’s best not to use seeds from plants that had WPM as it can be more susceptible in the future runs as well and come back.
Is this bro-science or solid advice? Haven’t dealt with nanners before thankfully

Fuck sucks dude. Super disheartening. Id you gunna run hash either way might as well finish it. All the way.

If you got more clones or something lined up ready to put in it’s spot I would maybe rip it.

Mist with water, pluck nanners, ride it out.

I’m debating that, as I have a 15 week old ‘green crack fem’ still vegging and waiting for my 4x4 to be cleared (that’s the tent with the nanners)
Either way, will I need to wipe the tent walls/clean the fans before this GC goes in for the flip? Really appreciate all the advice and feedback!! 9515E1BB-BDA7-4CE8-AB6C-A07B875E1A30.jpeg

I’ve found It takes time to notice, (they form in the bud and take time to grow out of the bud and become visible)
I ended up harvesting her the day after this post was made (just needed to get my other green crack going) and after the drying and trim, I found 15 matured seeds, and 10 premature. I only JUST noticed the nanners, but;
I’ve learned that even if you harvest ASAP, the moment it’s noticeable, it’s too late.

100% agree with everyone above who said “just ride her out and finish”
I wish I could have but my GC was vegging for 20 weeks now.. she needs to flower!
