Can I pull these out of flower?

[GodofGraphics]

Pics are of a plant that has been in 12/12 for 7 days. Can these be pollenated at this point? One of the plants hermied within the grow room and I believe has been shooting pollen all over the room.

Can I pull these plants and put them back under 24/0 until my hermied plants finish up in another 4 weeks? (Hermies are too big, too lush to trash at this point)

Are these probably already pollenated?
Will pulling it out of flower hurt it if it's not already pollenated?

Well, if they are going to get preggers and you have mature male flowers in the same room odds are they have already played the game. You may cause significant stress if you switch them back to 18/6.
I'm not sure what I would do in that situation, I don't like the choices.

I did some more reading, the plants I want to save have but a few new bud sites forming. Pistils only. From what I have read, only the flowers pollenated will bear a seed, and my plant being in for only 7 days has only a few of these per plant (12 each) So, with NO choices, I am harvesting the two hermies (sampled a bud, felt pretty good) and leaving the others in flower to see what happens. Wish me luck! NYCD, WW, Banana and Train Wreck.... what a harvest to get contaminated with pollen!

Here's what my hermies look like. Found no seeds yet, in flower for 5 weeks. Read on line that sometimes plants can form false-positive male pods... they look male, but never form seeds. Any info on this?

I have read of male flowers with nonviable pollen on "selfing" plants but I'd probably dump the hermies & make some hash out of them if they don't smoke well.

I chopped them down last night, trimmed the ballsy babes and letting them dry. Smoked a bit, tastes and acts like bag seed mexico stuff... but not bad.

My question. If my 4 girls are now pregnant (NYCD, WW, Train Wreck and Lemon Kush) do I let them mature, seed out, and then harvest them for whatever
I can get... some smoke, some oils, hash?

Or, is it better to chop, drop and roll them out the door... wash the flower room with bleach and wait a month for the next run of plants?

This sucks.

I'd probably let them finish if it were me.
I'll pick a couple seeds out if I have to.

Is my theory correct, that when the pollen was present, only the flowers wth pistils were pollenated?

Now that pollen source is gone, I washed the plants, all plants, the whole room and sprayed bleach to be on the safe side.

4 healthy 30" tall plants. NYCD, WW, Train Wreck and Banana Kush. SO, if I let them grow in flower, will I get a female with some seeds, or a heavy seeded male plant that can't be smoked? Any ideas?
Many thanks.

Male plants don't have seeds, just pollinated females. And to answer your question, yes, if you have now removed your pollen source and cleaned everything no more fertilization will occur and subsequent flowers will not form seeds.
