Looks as if it could be hermie
unless you are getting male flowers on a female plant.
More pics would be nice

Dont assume its male and kill it. make sure its male. You could also try to make some feminized seeds by seeding that plant it comes from. Or you could pluck the balls as they grow, im sure yield would be greatly diminished though.

LOL Damn I wish this didn't happen. Its in a 32gal tub with another plant both LST. How would I go about taking this plant out? cant just cut it at the stalk because the root would rot and affect the other correct? Dig it out my only option? Ill have more pics in the morning. SHIT!

grow it and pluck the sacks!
You just pluck the sacks? I figured that maybe It would release pollen when I cut them... Is that crazy? Plus how would that stop the hermie process.....

use a kleenex or something, grab the sack so its completely covered by the paper towel/kleenex and that there is no chance for pollen to get anywhere then just pinch right where it connects to the plant and pull it off. thats what i did when i had a plant hermie a lil bit(only a few sacks total) and just made sure to fix the light leak i had missed and continued....it didnt hurt it or slow it down and it had no more male parts on it ever. but make sure you do still keep a real close eye on it from then on so you dont accidently miss one or 2 and get your bud full of seeds.

I agree with JoeCali. Those aren't pollen sacks they're calyxys. calyxi? They've got burnt tips but they don't have the indented sides that pollen sacks do, they're rounded. Plus they're in single formation, not clusters. Don't pull them off or kill the plant. If you can seperate it from the rest because I may be wrong, but I really don't think that's a hermie. Just slightly sick female flowers.

Air ant and Joe are on the right track. They are indeed calyxes (which is the correct spelling I think), but they are the most fucked up looking calyxes I have ever seen. Can you post up a pic of the entire plant gsljacobb? It looks like you've got some leaf curling and tip burning, which also likely affected these calyxes and made them look the way they do now.
I wouldn't be too concerned with these calyxes, but I would make sure the plant is on track health-wise before you get much further into flower.

Calyxes....what they said^^^^^
Do not pull them off. There is NO pollen in them and they will not spurt nothing on your plants.
