OK I just noticed that my 2 White Widow plants were throwing out nanners...

They were still very small... they didn't appear to be "opened" at all or anything and I didn't see any pollen. I think I caught them fairly early, however, the nanners were appearing in several buds in BOTH of my white widow plants! Pretty crazy! None of the other strains had any nanners after thorough inspection.

So, my question is basically what is the likelihood that I pollinated the rest of my plants? There was a total of 10 plants in the room, including the two herm white widows. Can you prevent pollination by catching the bananas early?? I'd be OK with a seed here and there, but I really don't want to have my entire crop extremely seeded...

Anyway, I killed both White Widows immediately. I'm trying to not get any seeds. The bananas were too numerous and too spread out to try to control them. They were still very small and hidden in the buds so I think they were still developing. I'm not sure exactly what stress caused this!!! This strain should be pretty stable. However, in the last week I did perform a nicotine drench and a pyrethrum drench on the soil (for root aphids). I also trimmed some lower branches and tied some of the main colas in to bamboo rods... Unfortunately I'm thinking it was the soil drenches that stressed the plants. Luckily none of the others hermed yet (even the Sour D's). Hopefully, it'll remain that way...
