My buddy came over and I was showing my plants to him....he starts looking at them and says they look hermie. I purchased was were sold as feminized seeds. I think he’s out to lunch and they look pure female to me?

You need to show better detailed photos where the branches connect to the stalk..I didnt see any balls.
Look
Like some healthy plants to me..
 
Does he know they're from feminized seeds? He prob thinks all fems are hermies. Old way of thinking. Who's the breeder?
 
These are the ones he had in question. The seeds are from canadianseedbank

I see a lone male pollen sack on the first picture there. Can't tell if that plant is also female or not though. If it is, pluck the balls off, and hopefully no more will grow in.

I took it off and here’s what it looks like inside. Doesn’t look like a pollen sack to me

What should I do then? Just dump this plant? Any chance it could have affected the other when there were both in the same cabinet. They were together up till about 2.5 weeks ago

I would cull it. If it released pollen then there’s a chance of it pollinating the others, but if it has you should be able to see white or yellow powder on the leaves. The pollen sac didn’t look mature though so you’re females are probably fine.
 
Here are some more upclose pictures. The first three are of the plant in question.
Last two are of the plant that is hopefully an un-pollinated female.

If it were me I would just keep going and check them close every day. If the damage has been done you cannot undo it but it didn't look mature enough to pollinate anything. Now I could be wrong but as I say my thinking is if it did pollinate the other female the damage is done. It could have just been a reaction to stress where it was topped, especially if it is the only pollen sack you can find. If you do keep it going be ever vigilant with checking the nodes. Good Luck.

Depending on how big you wanna grow them, it could be quite a task to check all the nodes. I know I wouldn't want to check all the nodes on my Green Crack. Pic taken yesterday.
