Seeds again

[freeneasy]

Hermies but no banana, these guys had a good life ,came from reputable dealer ,but 3 attempts in 2 different tents went to seed. What the fuck am doing wrong!

First tent didn't get them till week 8 after turning to 12/12

Second tent showed buds about 2 weeks after turn then I noticed 2 seeds at the bottom of each bud site

They have separate ventilation so unlikely 1 contaminated the other, low temps, light intensity increased gradually, pruning done in little bits so im pretty sure I didn't shock them

First tent was pumping then I noticed hairs turning brown too early and then came the heart break again!

the wasted time and money is one thing but not understanding why this keeps happening is pretty soul destroying!

Any input would be greatly appreciated

Sorry for your troubles...plants from seed or clones? Most likely cause is stress or genetics. It doesn't sound like it from your description but are the buds with balls on the same stem as a female bud? Are the balls on one side of the plant or isolated to one stem? Maybe cross contamination with tools or equipment? Any light leaks during the dark period, have you done a leak test? Any PH issues or root related issues during your grow? What's your grow medium? How fast do your temps drop at lights out? Sorry for so many questions.

Couple questions. Please don't think I'm being a shit.
How many grows do you have that you can say the hairs are turning too early? Hairs can brown up from touch and can happen within weeks of flowering start.
Do the seeds you are talking about look like the calyx in the picture?

Best kind of seeds out there is free ones! I’ve never thrown shade finding one or two seeds, it is when you find bananas everywhere that’ you have serious problems. Typically finding one or two seeds in a feminized plant is from a stress factor like looking at your plant wrong and is gonna give you some of the best plants for the future. I personally save those seeds and grow them out..

if someone grows near you, and it has a male that the pollen got out and could’ve drifted in through your intake then you should have a lot of seeds and even those would be 50-50 male/female,

feminized seeds are created from a stress factor, whether it’s chemically induced or environmental a female plant will kick self preservation in and it is not always a bad thing.
