Hermie issue

[kingzt]

How should I approach plantts that are theowing a few sacks in the beginning of flower? Its about 3 weeks in and some of the lower nodes i cut off some balls. It’s flowering allright above the trellis. I also dont want to risk anything pollinating my other plants. Ive had plants throw nanners early and late but still came out good. How should I approach the next few days?

If it looks like this (buddy's pic) - straight into the compost heap it goes.

So a good example of monecy not a true full on herm as it's on different bits of the plant Vs male flowers on female ones but still nothing you want around or to breed with anyway agreed there bud

Depending on the size of the plants, if they are large its best to just toss them out. If they are small plants, and your willing/able to check them daily to remove the male parts, thats up to you.
It only takes one of those pollen sacks to ruin a crop, especially if there is a fan moving air around.

So i have them under a trellis and i removed all visible sacs. When the lights come on im going to remove the plants

how do I go about removing the plants? Should I spray them with water first if there is any sacs i missed? There wasn’t a lot of them thankfully but i know how fast things pop up. Im going to cut the trellis and leave the good plants intact but any tips on removing these plants without causing a problem

You can always chop her down one branch at a time. Inspect the branch, spray water if you see a sack.

If there are trichomes on the plant, I would use the buds and infuse some cheap alcohol, like vodka.

Its at day 15 and surprisingly there is some nice trich production. Im ao bummed because they looked promising in veg and early on with this kind of trich production. Also theyre from archive who i had a lot of faith in. I popped 3 seed and one was a full blown male that i culled as soon as they showed sex. All fem seeds too

Thats a bummer. Did you contact them and show them pictures of the male? They might send you some replacement seeds.

Nope just noticed today

Oops sorry not the male. Didn’t even think of it

Seems like it would be a valid claim. A credible seed bank should recognize that having a male pop up, in feminized seeds, is some sort of mistake on their part. They probably got some seeds mixed up.

Im being paranoid right? Does this look like normal early bud production? This hermie has me all kinds of skeptical now

Did anyone read the op? “Throwing a few sacks in the beginning of flower” is a hermie issue not a full blown male. Be diligent and pluck the balls, if your on your game with nutes and environment it will be stop throwing them and you can rock on.
Pulling the plants as If they are straight males is ridiculous and totally avoidable

Im pretty sure op said one of the plants was a full blown male. Read the whole thread.

Looks like a normal female to me.

Yep, I had one full-blown male from the start. I got rid of that then two flowering normal but has been throwing some balls and manners out. I’ve been plucking. I just plucked one today. I lollipop the shit out of them both because it seems to be only on the lowers. I’m just gonna be vigilant, but it is pretty nerve-racking. I’ve had success blocking some manners from other seeds in the past that turned out to be great but never when I’ve seen actual balls coming out

Thank you im just tripping
