Ok so 3 out of 5 of my plants about 2-3 weeks into flowering are showing clusters of balls. Yes they're balls not swollen calyxs. Theres too many and cant reach alot of them too pick them off so my question is will a plant being hermie affect yield significantly? Will I yield more if I keep all 5 plants or chop the 3 hermies and keep the 2 females? I'm not worried about having seedy bud. Not a big problem to me, I'd rather have more yield and deal with it.
Hermies!!!! Should I chop????

If the plants become well seeded, then your weight will go up majorly. But you'll have a ton of seeds and less bud, as a % of overall weight.
When the plants seeds itself, it moves all it's energy into seed production and stops producing bud. So, less bud, more seed weight. Cut the 3 hermie plants and let the other 2 plants finish properly. You can spray down the plants with water, which will help keep the pollen floating around the plants. Just make sure you have fans blowing so they dry quickly.

go get some Dutch masters reverse(though it might already be to late, depending on seed development) and spray NOW!!!! If that doesnt work with in a few days, get rid of teh herms, they will KILL the potency of the 2 good plants you have. Fully seeded herm'd buds can be up tp 60% SEEDS, basically no buds, and what buds you DO have left are not very strong.
Good luck man!

Wrong.....there will be plenty of smokable material available, even with tons of seeds. Each seed has a pod, which is encrusted in resin. Some of my friends love my seeded stuff- it seems to be more tasty and dense smoke. Either pick off the male pollen balls or remove the hermie plants to stop the pollen being released and therefore more seeds being produced....
i had a hermie that was a little odd, some buds mostly seedless, others got knocked up hard with seeds
so had a comparison of same bud with seeds and without
you pay a stiff price in quantity, the seeded buds are thin on the good part
however, the quality was very nice, a sweeter, nicer feel than the unseeded
but the unseeded parts were also very good, and a lot more yield
