Hmm what do you mean they (males)are the pollen donors the seeds develop in the female buds or Herms either or as for can you keep a herm around your females without it pollinating it well only if it's not spitting viable pollen if it is then it will hit the rest and make seeds in the buds if you leave it in there?So male plants don't seed? So I planted 10 plants 5 showed signs of seeds. So I pulled them up. So did I pull male plants or did I pull hermies. And if they were hermies can I keep them around my females?
