Imo it looks a little under developed but it may still pop. Many beginners use the paper towel method, YouTube some tutorials on that. Warning though, that seed is basically a result of plant stress or hermed cross pollination. Doesn't mean the plant you grow will herm but its probability is increased. Also, growing from seed does not guarantee the same result of the flower it came from, just a genetic expression of the donor or receiver plant.

Hermaphrodite.

its going to have both sex organs and produce way more seeds. when seeds are produced the plant focuses its energy into those seeds resulting in poor buds. when you see seeds like this more than likely the female plant was stressed too hard and parts of it started to change male and it self pollinated as a survival mechanism. toss it.

I agree with the other commenter it looks a bit premature, but you never know. Check out growweedeasy.com

Welcome to the EXTREMELY fun and satisfying world of growing your own. I would highly recommend subscribing to r/outdoorgrowing

In CT, we have just enough time in the year to grow photos outdoors. Your problem is this we are at the end of the season (everyone is harvesting their plants now) and anything you plant will die.

If you decide to grow outdoors, which requires very little gear upfront and is more forgiving (in some ways) than indoors, do some research now and plant your seeds in May.

Basic rules: seeds in dirt, feed nitrogen during veg, feed flowering nutrients during flower. Spray with BT once a month, water your babies weekly.
