  • So the Purp plant I am flowering out in a 4x4 under 600w hps in a 20 gallon smart pot with about 50% super soil is for sure a hermie.

    I've had a few light leaks in the 2nd-3rd week of flowering ans right now were in the 4th week I believe and there are full blown male genitalia growing in the buds.

    What do you guys suggest I do because I don't really have time to scrap this whole plant and start over but if I have to I will, my main concern is that the air exhaust is pointed straight at my outdoor plants and once they start flowering I don't want them to get fucked by some hermie haha.

    The reason I haven't just killed the plant already is because of how deliciously fruity/grapey it smells already. Its a beautiful plant with tons of bud sites on it and I know its gonna be some straight purp.

    What would you guys do? Pluck the male stamen out as they begin to form? Or kill the plant entirely and start over?​

With plucking, if yu miss a few and being as its venting on your outdoor grow, you're not going to be happy. If it was just one Plant in question, and it wasn't crazy covered, maybe keep it going. Personally if i was in the same situation, i would cut it down.
Edit: is your exhaust filtered to prevent pollen from getting out? That may be a deciding factor too.

The exhaust is not filtered, I did think about that but what kind of filter can I get that wont let pollen out and also wont slow down how much air the fan is pushing out.

Also it is only pre maleflowers they haven't opened yet.
