There is the plant:





Is it a hermie, and how long till it becomes a danger for my ladies, if ever?

The two middle pics do look like they have some male flowers. If they are they could open anytime. If there are not to many pull them off now if you can. And keep an eye out for more, they will most likely keep coming. And you put up some really nice pics too. It sucks when someone puts up pics when they want help and they are all out of focus.

hate imageshack. that is a true hermie. remove if you have other females. will still make some smokable bud but it will def get very seeded.

Funny it is the best developing plant of all, this is 3 weeks in flowering

So if it is a hermi I can leave it in another room and get FEMINIZED seeds of it right?

dude, your plant is covered with male flowers, pollen sacs, pistols. no way to pluck the off. this is not ur usual 'intersexed' plant with mainly female flowers and a few male flowers. looks 50/50 to me.

You're correct, you'll get female seeds from it. But you'll probably get some hermies in those new seeds as well

yep it is the first time I see such an obvious hermie I had to be sure

so is it good for feminized seeds? I can put it alone in a cabinet with a few CLFs in order to preserve the ladies

But your seeds will likely make more hermi's. Or at least a better than average chance. I've also heard some say otherwise. It's a roll of the dice. With all the interbreeding it takes to stabilize a strain it's no wonder we get a lot of hermi action.

Bout 15% to get a hermie off hermie seeds, the rest will be female. I usually get 1 in 5 hermie off my seeds.

seeds from a naturally occuring hermie will have a hiher ratio of hermies than a female that was forced to turn hermie to produce seeds.
