Hermies and Autoflowering plants in grow room

Your splitting small things now - if the plant has the resources it will do both, if i pollinate a pistil and throw back to veg.... Well you should know the rest, threads show preflower pollination under 24/0 and the seed grow to maturity whilst the plant carried on vegging.

Your taking extremes and applying to everything.
I'm not speaking from reading threads, my friend. I'm speaking from years of experience.

No i checked threads to confirm my experience so if others hit google search my information would be accurate to the evidence found.

Im not here to argue, you have a point.

So I decided to take them down and start with the clones I was vegging for a while... the question is... how long should i wait to introduce them to the flowering room?
And I'm so paranoid I see hermies all over in my clones..
Check this out... are they turning hermaphrodites?

MIght as well leave it. The flowers aren't really going to develop big time like sensi buds anyway. That stuff looks like it's got a long way to go. Depending how much area it's taking up and energy you're spending growing it, I might consider scrapping it now that I've seen the pics. How big is the fattest top? What is the strain? Where did you source the seeds? Also, are they seeded all over and all plants hermied or are you talking about a few spots here and there or one or two that threw pollen sacs?
Its a cross between Purpel Halo and Sharktooth Diesel from a friend of mine. Really nice plants. They have three phenotypes, one really purple, one super green with lemon flavour and one in between that smell like lavender.
Its pretty much all gone. Half of the plants have a lot of polen sacs.. its really fucked... the pics were from the bottom buds. the tops were dense and had already half of the pistils orange... some others reversed and have only white hair.
I choped the more dense buds and left some others to see if they bulk up or if they become airy and soft like some of the plants that are there.
here is one of the medium budsWhatsApp Image 2020-05-20 at 03.57.35.jpeg

"A seed" is not a pollinated plant. I get the impression from the OP that the entire crop is seeded, in which case throwing the whole room into a veg cycle would have no effect whatsoever on either the quality or the yield of the pollinated plants, neither of which will be all that great regardless. Judging from what little is visible in the pics, assuming that seeds are forming in all those calyxes, I wouldn't waste any time finishing them. If there are some decent buds on there somewhere already, I wouldn't put everything on hold just to finish them on 12/12 because of grower lore if I could use the space left in the room to veg the next round in the meantime..
there are seeds and polen sacks in pretty much all of them...

Damn... hard to say 100% but those kind of do look like hermie preflowers. Did your friend maybe accidentally pollinate his crop with a hermie and call it breeding?

no his seeds are ok... i left them almost 2 weeks with 24 hour light when tjey were 2 weeks into flowering...

Sometimes it happens, dont really see herms in your pictures, but a few seed at the base of the plant can be a common complaint.

In time you will solve it but id just carry on as normal to that point. Probably just need to dial your grow in more.

It's not all that hard to read what's already been posted before replying... it's not even two full pages and you were here for part of it

They just look mutated and grossing me out, if they were male i think i would be getting a gay vibe by now.

Hey but the top buds sound cool, just pull that other crud off when they form more , damage control. You have a lot of plants it sounds a lot of work.

Could just be pistils resting at an odd angle, but a couple of those do look a lot like male preflowers.

They are not pics of the same plants, as clearly stated in the accompanying posts. First set was the hermied crop. Second set is clones he's getting ready to put in.

I'm not taking any chances... just took them out and I'm keeping a close eye on the rest of them. I have now 20 clones just waiting to go to the flowering room but i'm worried about the pollen that is flying around inside...
I'm kind of living a nightmare right now..
Even started new seeds in case these clones get pollinated by any chance...
I'll make a grow journal this time.
Always wanted to do one and I think this is the perfect time to do it.
Thank all of you for your feedback!

The seeds are good... But no one ever grew them indoor... here are some pics of these plants on an outdoor grow. Outdoor they a bit to be ready, so I was thinking I had something like 10 weeks flowering indoor, but the plants I've cutted they were on week 6 of flowering and looked like they had another 3 weeks to go before flushing

Pollen dosent live that long round bright lights and stuff, easy to wipe everything down.
