Bananas, harvest time, oh my

Happy Weekend everybody! First grow nearing the end -yesterday was the 9 week marker and I have two plants, one Super Skunk, which is said to need 8-10 weeks and one Super Silver Haze, which is 9-11. This morning, I found what I think is a banana on each of two SSH buds. Questions: Are these bananas? How much damage can they do at this point in the game? My thought is there isn’t much time to make seeds, but maybe enough to interfere with final terpene push. Also attaching

trich pics from both plants. Should I just harvest one or both plants? They may be ready anyways. Also for fun, bonus shots of the grow :slight_smile: Thanks all!

Some good looking smoke…too bad about the nanners! Hopefully they will be sterile…

You can pick them off and keep flowering. :slight_smile:

Sometimes plants will do this at the end of flower as a last ditch effort for survival!

Definitely.

I don’t want to assume how much time you have left before your normally planned harvest, but seed development begins very quickly after pollination, and it takes about 5 or 6 weeks for many strains to fully develop seeds.

Another thing to consider is what you have coming into your flowering space. If you have other plants that you’re bringing in very soon, you don’t want to deal with hermie pollen flying around the new ladies.

If your trich’s look good now, you may as well start the harvest. If not, you can keep plucking the 'nanners and hope you get them all (very difficult to do).

Here are the trichs… What do you guys think?

Mostly cloudy with a decent percentage also being amber - I’d say the SSH looks ready for sure, and the SSkunk looks about ready, too.

Time to get biblical…
… Like Matthew 5:29 biblical :laughing:

And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out,
and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for
thee that one of thy members should perish, and
not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

You know what to do… :vulcan_salute: :smile:
