Hermie? grr!!

[Nugglet]

Hey guys this is a little plant i've had at 12/12 from seed and i topped it as well at the second node just for expirimental purposes lol. I was very happy with the topping method and the 12/12 is coming okay but i think i got a hermie? on the very bottom where the nodes split from the topped method it has like sacs everywhere? Here are some pictures.

You would be correct, those are male parts for certain.

a trick you may be able to use with your camera -- point it at the ground, or at something, press the button down halfway, let it focus, and then go to the plant and take a picture.

make sure the distance you choose to prefocus on is the same distance from the actual picture.

pics arent bad, but they would be pristine with my method

 

[scoregreen]

oh, and yeah, hermie...

 

[Nugglet]

haha okay thanks for the tips guys. What should i do about this hermie? kill it? or what will happen if i let it go? It does have some bud on it as u can see. What should i do?

 

[Nugglet]

I wanna get rid of this thing tonight guys? any ideas? If it will polenate my female i want it gone. What should i do with it? Its been flowering for like 3 weeks now prob. Should i hang the hermie and let it dry and smoke the bud from it? like maybe 2 grams haha. or what?

[Nugglet]

yeah those a male balls..sry that sux man..

no worrys i got a female that is about a foot and a half, but im loooking for info on what to do with that hermie cause its in the same box as my female?

 

[scoregreen]

you can keep it -- i think hermies yield feminized seeds...

 

[scoregreen]

(or, to say, i know the solution can be applied to female plants to grow male parts -- and THAT is feminized...)

 

[Nugglet]

yes but will it make my other Pure female produce seeds as well? becuase they are right beside each other?

 

[scoregreen]

yes, that too. can you maybe isolate this plant? stick it somewhere to produce seeds and then kill it. ive never done it cause i dont have a safe zone for it...but it should be only a week or two...

 

[Nugglet]

Um not really lol.. i dont really have anywhere to put it. I could maybe put it outside? haha. but other then that no. I only have 1 cabnit so i should just kill it? cause i dont want my female to become full of seeds

 

[scoregreen]

ive heard of people cutting off the male parts. xacto-knife style. if they grow back, keep cutting or cut it all.

next hermie i get, ima try and castrate

 

[Nugglet]

yes i have heard that as well, but is that the only spot of which they grow pollen? cause i dont wanna fuck up my female. Seriously i would prob sleep safer at night if i just killed it if it's going to screw her up.. possibly throw it outside?

 

[scoregreen]

cut it down

 

[Nugglet]

okay i will cut er man. If i do should i let it hang or dry for a few days ? and then harvest the small amout of bud on it? or what ya think?

 

[LUDACRIS]

yes its hermie. remove it straight away from any fems and all you can do is chop it now and take what smoke you can get as the condition will only get worse and the plant will degrade further.
and hermie seeds produce hermie seeds so if you have any females remove and cut it now.

CHRIS.

 

[scoregreen]

no -- there is nothing on it you want.

remember, you want the resin glands on the mature female buds. you're a way's away from THC

 

[scoregreen]

and hermie seeds produce hermie seeds so if you have any females remove and cut it now.

not trying to call bluff on this, but are you sure -- ive been curious about this for a while...
