My plants have all turned hermie in week 5 of flowering and are starting to form lil pollen balls on the buds. Should I chop them down early or let them finish?

It depends on what you want. If you let them go there will be seeds but you will allow the buds to mature and they will yeild alot more. If you chop now you will not have seeds but you will have premature bud and not as much as you could of had. Its really on what you want

i busted open one of those banana pollen sacks but i dont know what caused them to appear. it may have been the light cycle. the power kept going on and off from a storm and then the bulb burned out two days later on my 600w hps this may have helped cause it.

so you would let them all grow and get seedy but have more yeild? it looks like they are going to be pretty seedy. there are alot of spots where it looks like seeds on the buds.

i can try and get better pics i just dont want to leave some together if they all arent even though i have no where else to move them...i would just have to kill them. if there are some that havent yet are they going to get seeds because the others did if left together?

buddy im in week 4 of flowering and im having the exact same prob, i grew 2 diff strains from seed n one is forsure hermie but luckily i chopped off most of the few pollen sacks that were and the begining of the nodes/stalks but as i watch my buds grow they seem to be makin little pre-seeds/bud things i duno if im just paranoid cus the hermie thing but i im just gonna grow em out to my best. its hard to tell from the pics if urs are the same cus u need close detail but my opinion is to jus finish them & next time get a strain with legit no hermi dna
