About how long after a plant turns hermaphrodite do you have time to catch the problem before the pollen sacks open and pollinate a flowering female :?:

hermies are tricky as you dont always see them. if you have bananas everywhere its a lost cause. if you have good stress controls you can minimize the damage. good bud with seeds is better than none though.

That didn't answer my question.
Does anyone know how many days you have to catch a hermie plant before the sacks open up and pollinate all the rest of the females in the room?

this aint true at all some plants will show nanners but wont have pollen, in other cases you can pluck the nanners off.
it takes time for seeds to produce and you can cut down on the spead of pollen by shuting fans down and speading
plant out so they dont touch each other, either way you can slow it down if your close to the end of you cycle. IF!!
your a couple weeks in and get them you might want to get a new strain cus thats way to early to have to manage
it and a hidden nanner will have time to seed the hole crop. get a good green light and run it at lights off the nanner
will almost glow and be easy to see. but to answer your Q it all depends on stress and strain

it depends upon when you notice them. ime i have seen male flowers mature and open in about 10-14 days sometimes it can be less though. if your plant is still early in flower i would get dutch master reverse it has worked for me in the past.

Good call on the green light at night to see if anythings glowing.
