15 bubble berrys turned to hermies... what should i do????

[bust a flow]

im a first time grower and everything was going great, 15 bubbleberrys, 2 original romulans and 5 rockbuds growing under a 1000 watt HPS using pure blend pro formula in pro mix. really healthy growth, huge buds but i dont have a camera. about a month and a half into flowereing i noticed a light leak and now i have hermies. i broke open one of the buds and the seeds are at the very begining of growth, there too small for anyone to really notice. i dont know if i should harvest early and risk the potency of my buds, or let them finish and kiss my sinsemella dreams goodbye, the buds are huge and they look ready except the trichomes arent deleloped enough they dont have a shaft and there all cler to milky white colored. the recommended flowering time for bubblle berry is 65 days. they smell great and look greeat. bud growth has already leveld off. but the rock buds are allready covered in amber colored crystals so i harvested those and they cured great. any help from an experienced cultivator would be greatly appreciated.

harvest them now-THC production halts once seed production begins-If your trichs are cloudy I'd cut them down-wont be able to get rid of it, as its already tainted, but itll still be some decent smoke..

im pissed cause apparently i hit the switch on my time for my light and all my babys just got 24 hours of light under the 1000w hps after only being in flower for like a week. now im putting it in 24 hour dark again before resuming so i can keep the same schedule. i hope the \y dont go hermie cause they are just starting out. damnit.

you should be fine if it just happened once. How were your temps during the 24 hr light period?

what turns a plant hermie anyway?

Basically over stressing your girls.. .. It could happen in a number of ways. Light leaks are the most common. But starting from seed it's not too uncommon to not catch a hermie till after you cut it down.

if your plants have already been pollenated, then you already have seeds, even if they are babies, they are still seeds.

I would leave them to go all the way, increase their size a bit and also let them develop the thc glands so they become more potent.

Potency does not stop increasing once you get pollenated
