HERM on day 38 - can be kept seperately in the grow room?

short question:
can I put a hermie in a closet in the same grow room as the flowering tent without risking seeded crop?

details for those with patience:

5 fems in the DR2 4X4 tent. 200cfm exhaust from tent (well a bit less than that due to carbon) and passive intake from outside into the tent, thus causing negative air pressure inside the tent. It's been a stressful grow, mostly nutritional problems, I think maybe the coco I'm using is bad cuz whatever I tried to do (and I've tried) they would always show some very mild sign of def.

So my best plant out of five hermed big time on me... started pulling nanners out of every fucking bud. dunno why, too much stress i guess... I haven't seen seeds anywhere and the nanners were still green, so I think I caught it on time.

anyway, it was really my best plant, that gave big thick and dank buds, in 3gl smartpot, couldve given me 3oz maybe. I don't wanna just toss it. I could even smoke it as it is, but it would be best if I could let it mature for say another week or two, even in darkness, even just to get a couple of orange hairs, it's all white now.

in the meantime, I put it inside a closet (where gay plants should be huh!) in the same grow room (I can't put it anywhere outside it). I'm hoping that with the tent closed most of the time, and air coming from the passive intake, and the plant in a closet with no airflow, I can get away without getting a seeded crop. Then again, it's a big risk - I don't mind a few seeds on the buds, but having buds full of seeds is very bad for me. Has anyone tried something like that?

appreciate your help

Turn off the fans and pull it out with a pair of good tweezers, I've done this many times, in a pound of bud I only get one or two under developed seeds, peace.

so after reading up and thinking i decided what i'm gonna do is pluck the nanners right now and keep it separately for a few days. then i if it doesn't grow more I will consider putting her back in to mature after a heavy mist of water.

i will put a few cfls in the closet for the meantime, no fans. feed it with ghe ripen to finish as early as possible.

seems like u have a good grip on the situation. heres hoping that the nanners are sterile.

just do like you said, pluck em. and remember spraying water is a good way to kill pollen.

just a single pod can give you way more seeds than you'd want, so be sure to keep a watchful eye ;)

Watch that lady like a hawk. If you mist make sure you keep a fan on her too, don't want budrot creeping into the equasion.
