HELP ---What do you mean sacks open? Are you recommending cutting down on watering just that plant or all of them. What caused this and is it recoverable? What should my path forward be and how do I avoid this?

Take a close up of the area he circled. Looks like at least one hermied on ya. If so you'll need to closely examine them all to see how bad it is.

If it's just one area/branch you could cut it. If it's the entire plant you can remove it. Since they are open, and assuming you have a fan going, the pollen has been spread. Not the end of the world, but you'll have some seeds, how many depends on how much pollen was/is released.

Female plants can pop male anatomy when stressed. In this case it looks like an overfeed of Nitrogen during flower.

If the sacs are not producing pollen, and they fall off easily I wouldn't worry too much. I've had quite a few sacs on smaller branches that haven't produced much pollen, if not any. But if you want to be sure you can remove them or the effected area. It's the plants natural reaction to conditions out of its comfort zone. The female plant will sense oncoming demise or loss of health and make a last ditch effort to reproduce.

A seed or three isn't really an issue with stressing over too much. If there's a few there, there's probably more to be found.

Heat, light, environment, pH variance or nutritional shock can induce stress rodelization, and some plants have genetic hermaphroditism in their "blood" line.

Okay thanks for the information --- Does seem like it is the one plant and not all of them. Should I run just straight water for a few days? No nutrients? or stop watering for a few days?

I'm a newb, so don't listen to me. If you make a mistake, try not to compound that mistake buy overcorrecting potentially making matters worse. Instead try to ease back into what should have been the correct actions all along.

Ease back on the N, but no reason to go starving them. :eyesmoke:
 
I'm assuming to much nitrogen is coming from the added nutrients?? So ease back on the nutrients - this is what I am using. I add recommended amount of both whenever I add water. Should I remove the hermie plant, or just remove sacks?

Herms are typically genetic tbh...id inspect the others around it and remove it (just personal preference). If pollen was in those sacks, it's possible there will be seeds throughout the whole grow.
 
So a plant that Herms is caused by ether genetics or the environment................ I'm leaning towards genetics because the other plants look fine? When I get home today I will have to inspect closely and decide what to do, if its only a few sacks remove and go on. If multiple, I will remove the entire plant.
 
After checking them closley, the one is a Herm. I'm 50 days/ 7 weeks into flowering. I'm not going to do anything, ride it out. Deal with a few seeds, Learn from my mistakes. Hope for the best.
My next plants I will be keeping a eye out for the Herms early and get rid of it.

Thanks all
