Female plant producing seed without male

[aqualungs]

Hello, I have 3 plants on week 6 of flower under a 400w HPS they are all female and I had one male I removed at week 1 of flower. Here is my issue. Besides using tap water and having to adjust for that issue. 2 of the 3 plants are producing a couple seeds ( say 4-5 seeds per plant scattered on diff. buds.) There is no way I figure that they could have been pollinated and the seeds came from bagseed of an outdoor skunk crop.(2-3 seasons old) poss. sweet skunk ( looks identical). There is a diff. in the thickness of buds on these 2 plants either they are not packing on as much weight although I still have about 4 weeks left. Veg time was 6-7 weeks and they are about 4 feet high now and they were pinched and bent at 12 inches. I am growing organically with bio bizz line of nutes ( grow, bloom, top maxx). I think it may be due to the seed genetics/ how they were produce outside just random pollination. It's my first grow so I didn't want to buy seeds since I had a random 60 sitting around. I had major germination problems and the seeds that did germinate like half of the seeds popped but wouldnt emerge through the soil. Any one have any ideas?

Bagseed plants are notorious for self-pollinating (hermiphrodite) late in flowering. Generally, the outdoor commercial weed isn't pollinated with males (which are culled), but by hermi-females that are harder to see. This results in hermi-seeds. It's very hard to find a reliable female from bagseed.

Your germination problems are also due to the fact that they were bagseed. It's usually compressed and stored in a way that kills the seed. Seeds need to be stored in a cool, dry place to stay viable.

There's nothing wrong with growing some bagseed. Hopefully you got some decent smoke and learned a lot. In the future, any seeds you buy from a breeder are going to seem like a breeze!

Still I thought it was kinda weird because I never seen any pollen sacs. But one plant out of the 3 has zero seeds so thats still good and will I still be able to smoke the 2 that have a few seeds, they have tons of crystals and calyxes. If they are hermis there are only a few seeds on the go they are just suffering in packing on the weight compared to the other.

They're subtle...

So should it still give me something decent to smoke even with a couple seeds on those 2 plants?

Assuming it was decent weed that you got the seed from originally, yes ;-).

I have been getting very minor hermi's on my schrom and sweet skunk. Sweet skunk is very sensitive to lighting, in veg I have to be careful about light in dark period, so I just veg on 24 hours now. I have seen full on nanners, but the pollen seems to mosly unviable, I have seen true males go to flower. The males flowers seem retarded, lacking that 4 or 5 sided cover to the nanner, that form a neat start shape when they open.
While trimming it is hard to find more than a dozen seeds on a 60g plant.... so I really don't worry.
