Hermie question! advice needed

  1. So, suppose I had one plant 3 weeks into flowering with one bud that had a male pollen sac. I'm assuming it 'hermied' from stress and not genetics because it is just the one bud. It would be a shame to kill her for just having the one branch that hermied. What do you guys think? What are the chances of getting away with plucking the pollen sac or removing the branch and not seeing any more balls?
     
  2. I encountered a similar problem. If you can see the male bud, it's already too late. Take it off, but you're gonna have seeds for sure. But don't kill it! You can still grow some DANK ass bud.
     

  3. i agree with stevieblaze21 you will probably get some seeds but usually the pollen form hermies is less potent and will result in less seeds...usually:smoking:....i would grow them out and see what you get
     
  4. Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback. Maybe its just wishful thinking on my part, but I really don't think that the male part was developed enough to fertilize anything. They're actually just 18 days into flowering. It looked like a newly formed pre flower. I was mostly just trying to get feedback on whether or not ya'll think its very likely to see more male balls develop seeing as how the occurrence was isolated to just the one node on one branch.
     

  5. if you saw balls this early on you will probably see more.keep us posted:smoking:
