well you could flower it completely and get free seeds. or just chop it and make some butter or something. i would at least seclude it from the other females. sorry bout the hermie

I just chopped my hermi - eee gads. 6 weeks into flowering and she balled up. lol.. but I'm stoned right now off the hermi little freak so take what you can and save the others. I have another plant going and she is doing great - I hope. We'll see - they were together for a long time :) peace - smoke - love :joint:

is it true the hermie plants, their seeds will be feminized? i thought i herd that somewhere, i could be wrong, any body know

no the seeds from the hermie plant wont usually turn out feminized and are most likely to carry on the same genetics to the next grow(more hermies).

ok thanks LUDA, how do you make feminized seeds?
i have read a lot about breeding but as for making feminized seeds i will look into my archives for you as i have never read about knowing what to do to regarding the making of feminized seeds.
i have a lot of info/archives so give me some time to find out for you.
i will be on later tonight as i have a couple of jobs to do at the moment.

what about if you purposely hermie a plant. this has nothing to do with genetics then, would the seeds from this plant still have a better tendency to hermie.

There are 2 ways to create feminized seeds, First is to use hormones on a pure female plant to cause it too hermie and the second is to stress a pure female (with lighting) into hermie... Of the two the second option is much more difficult but is preferable because the seeds aren't exposed to unnatural hormones that could have many other side effects on growth and production.

In regards as to what to do with your hermie, growers who don't have many plants sometimes clip the balls and flower the plant. You have to be attentive though because the balls will grow back. The bud won't be as good as a clean lady it will still be useable.

if u let the hermie pollinate itself it will produce prodominately female seeds thus feminized seeds so hermies arent always bad
