Hermes in the flower room

I ended up taking down a plant and found buds completely seeded. I have 5 others in the room a month behind at day 30 days. 4 of them are the clones from the hermied plant and all have seeds in 50% of the buds. Then I have a bag seed plant that shows no sign of hermy or seeds. Also cannot seem to find nanners or balls.
Question is would I fuck the room up even more just letting it run through since I'm 1/2 way there. Or should I cut my losses and pull it all and clean.
Also I'll be looking for a new strain to run and any advice for a novice is welcomed. I currently have an igrow induction light and 2 ss 315 lec's and run an ebb and flow system.
Pretty new to this but I'll keep trying to get the hang of it.
Peace.

There are a couple of things to consider. Are the seeded buds still smokable? Are you going to use the seeds?(from a plant that obviously has a tendency to show hermaphroditism) If not I would cut them down. I wouldn't add anymore plants until you clean the room to try to get rid of any stray pollen. Keep the one that seems ok.

It's time consuming but I like to grow a mother plant from seed and leave it in veg and take a few cuttings. I flower those cuttings and if they do well I keep the mother plant and take cuttings as needed. The biggest down side to this is if the cuttings do herm you've had a mother plant wasting energy and real estate in your veg.

In the long run through you should end up with some reliable strains

I am going to be using it for smoke and no I'm done with this strain after this. I ordered seeds last night and plan on starting from scratch. I was wondering with the herm out of there now will the buds that aren't seeded continue to seed from the seeded buds as they age? If not I can just deal with it for a couple more weeks

You can keep an eye on it and pick out the herms, as long as none drop any pollen you should be good.
