So the plants wont continue to grow them? will cutting them out will bring more stress to the plant and grow more?

She'll continue to flower providing seeds haven't formed, so if she's only popping males here and there I'd just let her grow on, cutting off balls along the way...

hmmm i wouldn't mind some permafrost seeds... do hermis produce 50/50 seeds or feminized? also if i let these grow will they pollinate the rest of my garden?

The males will pollinate, and yes all seeds will be feminized, but with possible leanings to being hermies themselves some of us on here feel...
Funny enough I planted a few stray seeds of my own yesterday, also self fertilized by accident lol

If males are there they're going to pollinate them all. If that happens they'll stop flowering, and put all their energy into seed production.
If you want seeds, then great, but you'll get no more bud (although some claim bud from seeded plants is better)

Do hermis produce pollen?.WTF?

Of course! A hermi is a plant showing both male and female flowers. The male flowers on your hermi (even just one little lonely one!) will all contain pollen.

Sorry. I should be easy on you; The only silly question is one that isn't asked, maybe I should carry on after I've finished my morning coffee and coughy.

Thanks for the laugh though....and now my coffee's cold! lol

lol sorry for some reason i was thinking once a plant turns hermi seeds start popping out with out pollination.
I understand now.. So when a female stresses out they grow a bunch of male parts, those parts pollinate the female flowers and then create the seeds.

Yup, you have it sussed.

And because the plant's genetically all woman, so is the pollen from her male flowers; ergo, all female seeds.

You can deliberately stress a plant to hermi with sprays, light cycles etc so you can get your femi seeds for "free".

That's my next grow learning curve/project; female seeds for nothing. ;)
