male flowers(bannanas) at 6 weeks budding,should i harvest early?

i have 3 pinneapple express clones in a ebb & flow setup that are 6 weeks on 12/12 and i just found a male bannana flower that already popped open and released pollen.i dont really see any seeds forming but i dont want to chance it.i was thinking about flushing for a week and harvest at 7 weeks old instead of 8.does this sound like a good idea or what?

does anyone have an a opinion on what i should do ,i would greatly appreciate any input.

your going to want to post several pictures for this question.. the rate of male to female v.v. works in percentages, and some banana form but dont release useable pollen. if you see where seeds are forming or where the hair has receded and the calyx have swollen. idk need pics

well im pretty much in the same position, right now were just tweezing off the balls on our 4 week flowering sativa, seeing how she goes, if she only continues growing a few tiny sacks were gunna just keep on tweezing but if she hermies anymore were gunna cut her.

4th week of bloom/??? now thats a hermi.. there is a fine line. 2 cent

Well i just harvested three plants two of which i let grow out that maybe were self pollenated but most likely hermied,one of the plants that was starting to age rapidly i chopped when all the hairs turned brown and dried it for 4 days cured it so far for two days and the smoke is great very potent could be better on flavor but thats not bad as well and it has many seeds so after doing some research i found that late hermies are going to produce just as good a smoke as any other just with a bunch of useless seeds in it..if you want to se the difference in how they look good harvest and bad harvest check it out mine hermied at 5 1/2 to 6 weeks as well dont throw your girls away..pi 1 full term pic 2 the hermie chopped at 1 week or so early..Peace

Notice how dark the hairs are on the full hermie compared to the other these are BLZ BUD and the shit is very good..see whole smoke report in my journal..
