Seeds But No pollen and not a hermaphrodite

I started 5 seeds in hope to get some males to pollinate my 3 girls, every seed turned out to be females, all of them were put into flower at the same time, the ones that were started from seed all have seeds, but the cuttings do not.

Since the plants that are from cuttings do not have any seeds, then how can I have a hermaphrodite in the mix? What could cause these seeds to forum? It is only a 5x4 closet I find it hard to believe my 3 cuttings did not get any seed.

They will often form a few partial male flowers (naners) late in flowering. They are usually tucked away in the lower buds and will produce a few seeds here and there. You often dont see the "naners" until drying.
This is a natural reaction of the plant when it senses it is nearing the end of its life and has not been pollinated.

The life cycle of cuttings is different than seeds. It makes sense that they behave a bit differently.

Did you flower them for the same amount of time? Did you do anything different to the cuttings like pruning, or other training?

These plants are not at the end of their life, they have some time. Please read my post again, I don't think I can make it any clearer.

all of them were put into flower at the same time

Sine I am not getting any replies am I to assume that this has not happened to anyone before???

Are you sure, that what you think are seeds are really Calyxes?
The calyx looks exactly like a seed....
Maybe you just do not understand what you are seeing...
Calyx, look like seeds....and will grow seeds from that point when seeds form...

Good Luck !
