      It was 1 tiny bud on the bottom of a branch that was at the bottom of the plant.  A branch I should’ve cut off bc it wasn’t going to produce anything.  None of the other bud I’ve seen have any.  I went through most of all the large buds cutting dead out so I kinda did go through thoroughly.  But has anyone heard tell of this or experienced it personally.

      Random seeds will happen, usually the result of a male flower that went undetected although this time of year stray pollen from outdoors is equally viable.  I wouldn’t be surprised if you find some more in the buds as they are hard to spot until they pop out unexpectedly.

      Those should be viable. They look good. You could have caught some stray pollen from an unknown male, or she could have gotten stressed out & threw a few nanners. This would be her last ditch effort to try to preserve her genetics if she felt threatened, or life may have been coming to an end.
      The seeds are mature, so the pollination had to have been at least 5-6 weeks ago.

        5-6 weeks ago!  So there’s seeds won’t be hermies?

        They may be as you don’t know where the pollen source is and if it was a male or herm.  That just means if you decide to grow them you need to keep that in mind and keep a close eye on them for nanner’s (male flowers).

      I have got a few stray white seeds in a plant,they were never any good you could pop it about soon as you placed pressure on it,but I have never gotten black good seeds,mind you I’m talking about from clones.Is a stay white seed in a clone unheard of?

        White/greenish seeds are just immature, if you had let the plant grow for another 2-3 weeks they’d have rippened and turned brown/black/mottled.  Seed crops take longer then flower as they’re left past the prime harvest to make sure seeds mature properly.

      Not uncommon although I usually see green/white immature ones if I find them. There could of been one male part popped out, but some strains will always do it. I’d be worried if there was more but don’t see 4 being a problem. They will very likely be fem seeds.
