hermaphrodite, do i keep it??

[Erb Man Jinga]

my friend gave me a hermie and idk if there is any point in keeping it its pretty big and budding

If you've only got the one plant & don't mind tending it daily, let her finish & pull the nanners - but it will take attention to detail. Good luck.

what kind of tending are we talkin about i have alot of time on my hand so thats not a prob just need to know what to do?

Your going to want to kill the male flowers every time you see them pop up.
This will help keep down the amount of seeds.

ive already started takin some of the bulbs off but now im haveing trouble tellin what is bud and whats ball, any ideas?

 

[blzbob]

The male flowers will put out a yellow tiny tip that looks like a teeny banana pluck those off before they get a chance to open. Don't pluck the whole tip of the bud just the banana.

Do you know if there is any pollen in the sacs at that point?

I've been in the budding cycle for two weeks now. Plants are about 29". Just two plants i got from a couple of bags. Both of the plants are showing pistils all over, but one is starting to show little sacs between some of the nodes. I don't know if these are male parts coming in, or just the buds beginning to form. How can you tell? The sacs kinda resemble male flowers, but I don't want to cut them off thinking they could be buds. They kinda look like a pear, but no pistils even though below and all around the branches it has them. I may have hermie plants and if so , still keeping them cause they're covered in pistils. Sorry, no camera. Any advice as to where I can get pictures of the very beginning stages of budding, to see if it looks like what I have. Thanks in advance.
