Help with budding!

[speakeasy544]

Ok, so I had a female and a male plant. The male plant flowered and I kept it up for a little bit becuase I was going to use it. The female hadnt started budding yet so I wasnt worried. When female did start to bud then and I killed the male. I'm into like my 4th week of budding and the buds arent getting very big and I noticed what apeared to be seeds in the center of the white hairs on the bud. There not hard yet but I'm assuming the plant got pollinated.

What I wanna know is, is there anything I can do about that now and if not how will the bud turn out, like size and potency. Thanks!

Keep an eye on it. You may just be seeing calyxes. If they start to grow bigger, then you are seeing seeds.

Pollen can stay in the room after the responsible male is long gone..

Vacuum!

Buds don't really start to put on weight right away. No worries there.

The buds may end up a bit smaller because some of the energy the plant would be using to increase size is going into seed production.

And you may harvest a few days earlier as a result.

Hey thats encouraging and they are outdoor anyway, thats why I cant pay attention to them as much. Thanks!

Oh well if that's the case, the pollen is probably nonviable by now anyway after rain/dewfall.
