when do males start to pollenate after flowering stage

I'm not sure If I have a hermie or male plants. How long can I wait under flowering before they produce pollens. I dont want to just yank them until I know for sure they are males or hermie. They seem to have one little balls on the nobs but they also have hairs on the top part of the plants. Please someone shine in I dont want to fuck up my whole crop... Is it worth keeping the hermies?

show some pics.

you have a little while. i have a male in my room and i'm not gonna chop it until i get some pollen.

i cant take better picture cause my camera cant focus when it is that close....

they will b e open in a matter of days from that pic

lol i was looking at the wrong pic sorry..

here are better pictures

you will be fine for at least another 5 days+ until pollen will drop, os wait 3 days to be absolute 100% on the balls

i'll sure do that... so are those round things a male plant? professional option please.

Yes. Should be a collection of them at the top of the plant as well like snowmans pic.

Hmm, if there is no signs of balls grouping then hold fire, there may be a she still in there.

At this stage it is not beyond the realms that those tiny sacks could produce two pistils.

Is that a pistol at the top left of the pic?

Hope this helps...

I wonder if these new picture will help.. i think it looks like a hermie but i need your expert opinions....

Balls and pistils. interesting. hermi.

Seeing the nodes off the main stem are alternating like that, it's pretty mature, looks male for sure if by lack of pistils by that level of maturity.

seeing your new pics, it's male. Not hermie.

it is a hermie if i take pictures of the other nobles its full of white hair.

I can see three pairs of pisitils in your picture as well as a half dozen pairs of balls.

Hermie....oh well...
