Rights folks as you may know I have been posting a lot about hermies over the last few weeks, Anyway I had a good look at my plants last night (I have 6 in a 120 x 120 tent) And I discovered that all off them have bananas starting to grow In the buds, Devastated isn’t the word I’m absolutely gutted I’ve put a lot off money and time into These but on the other hand I took a gamble and used seeds from a hermied plant in my last grow, They are nearly 4 weeks into flower my only question is now what do I do with them shall I grow them out I need some personal smoke really badly surely I must get something off them, They are 8 weekers. These are my plants, Please Help!!

You have 2 options.
Grow them out and hope for the best. Get female cuttings from a friend or another local grower next time. Or spend the money on some good seeds.
Or, trash the whole thing and start over. This way, you get the extra month back that it would take to finish flowering them.

I didn't even look. Just taking the OP's word for it.
They are deffo there, I got curious yesterday and had a look inside the flowers and spotted some bananas sticking out I should off know better really growing seeds from a HERMIE plant but I got told the seeds would be female I guess not.
I think I’ll just grow them out I’m desperate for some personal smoke I have none at the minute this is what I was doing it for to keep myself medicated for at least 3 months or so , Urrghh I feel sick to my stomach that they are hermies.

I think most of us have experienced late term Herm. It is Heartbreaking sometimes.
Can you grow them out or will they just be full off seeds??

I'd pick the bananas off. I'm growing two at the moment and both started showing at around week 5. It hasn't been too bad, I probably have picked about a dozen bunches. I just use some tweezers and look over the plants really well every couple of days. So far they've all been inmature when I found them. It was a kick in the guts initially when I found them after vegging for 90 days. I'm in week 7 atm and seem to have it under control. I don't know what strain they are because I found a heap of seeds in a bag of dumped hydro by the side of the road - I should have known they were hermies.. I've just bought a heap of legit seeds now from seedman and with any luck won't have any issues.

Not sure if this is true but I've read that you will get one seed for every nanner you see. I wanna say it was in one of Ed Rosenthal's books.
They will have seeds, but you'll have smokeable product (albeit less of it) all the same.

I dont see any indications of hermie in the pics but .....Finish em out, go through the anguish of picking out a few seeds from you're buds when you smoke em and start over fresh with good genetics.....Man the seeds I used to have to pick out of those old brick pack mexican bags back in the day lol

Flower em out!
Pick out the nanners as they appear,
And once you get smoke, enjoy the snap crackle pop as you toke!

I'd take out as many seeds as I could, and start tossing them into public garden spaces randomly.
