So saturday will be week 7 since flip and I plan on doing one more feeding then start flush...strain is critical super silver haze... I was looking over her last night picking a dick.or two I saw but when.I looked closer they where every where deeper in the calyx n pistils...I wanted to.run everything 10 weeks flower max, trichs are clear/cloudy and the nugs are the densest nugs I have grown ....so chop her or let her sit

Yeah why not let her finish if she is close to done anyway? Just pick off as many dicks as you can and let her continue and smoke the bud anyway or make some hash or oils.

I guess if you are a big time grower you would chop her, but never saw the sense in the little guys doing 3-4 months of work to chop her just because she hermied (Unless you got girls close by)

I'm not 100% sure if hermi plants can produce pollen themself but if not you got 0 problems. That plant may not be what you expect but its still worth the THC this far along.

Keep removing bannanas

Chop er down since you got a lot of plants and they are for patients its not worth the risk of pollinating your entire grow.

Make some hash or oil or even cannabutter out of it

If there are already open male flowers showing up...the damage is done. In my experience of you SEE more than one male part then there are 3 or 4 you didn't see. I've made the mistake in the past of chopping early so that I didn't have seeds (this was commercial) found out people prefer mature good bud with a few seeds over immature bud with immature seeds in it.

you need to figure out why the plant got stressed and decided to produce pollen sacks.
it is usually over feeding, watering and/or bad ratio of nutes, heat problems
are lots of people reporting male flowers (hermies) with that strain or is it your fault?


if you find seeds they are feminized
seeded bud is fine
