So I'm fairly new at growing, I have a 600w in a 4x4 tent. I'm 1 week into flowering, I have 9 females in 3 gallon smartpots. Now my question is I'm running an unknown bagseed and on the plant I lstd approximatly 5 or 6 nodes from the top I have what looks to be a little nanner comin in. I'm still at the stage with single calyxs and I was wondering should I just pull the whole plant or just clip that pollen sac off, its the only one so I have no idea.

Bump and update, I found another plant that seems to be hermie, but only 2 of the 9. My temp spiked to 91 last week for 1 day.not many were affected but the 2 that are hermie had twisted leaves up top, now my question is should I pluck off the nanners and hope for a mostly sensimilla harvest or just scrap the 2? I think those are the only 2 exibiting the hermie trait but id just like to know what y'all reccommend.
 
Hi, I would strongly advise you to pull the 2 plants exhibiting male or inter-sexual characteristics. It's more likely than not, you will end up pollinating the other 7. That will stress all of your babies at a very crucial time in there budding process. I could be wrong and love to hear other's ideas and opinions. but i believe that this would be the right thing to do if you want to yield more.

try reverse from dutch master if the banana's come back then probably they are true hermie's but if it doesn't then it it probably was the stress, either way act fast...good luck

I ended up just pulling them,I don't want to risk polination. I've heard a lot about reverse though but I'm trying to stay organic no chems. Feel free to check out my grow and see how it progresses.

Note they were the smallest plants and had the smallest leaves. One was lstd and one was the 2nd smallest runt. Now I have a level canopy but empty spaces on the corners.
