I'm not sure what's going on, but it doesn't look good..

Not sure what to think.. just noticed purple balls and yellow boners. What's going on with my crop, and is she still good to continue?

Interesting. I've not seen those before (the purple balls). Didn't notice the yellow boners. I would keep a close eye on the purpose things in case they are male flowers (not that I've ever seen any purple male flowers).

You have tons of nanners on your plant! How long has it been in flower so far?

I haven't really noticed these until today. I'm 30 days into flowering, and I just put another into the flowering room 6 days ago. How quick could these appear? I did a res change last night, and used a small light indirectly to assist me
 
Once those balls open up, they can pollinate every plant inside the room and you'll have seedy weed on your hands at the end. I would try plucking them with tweezers in a separate room.
 
My only other plant in the room is another lady, which was added into flowering 6 days ago. Do I run the risk of pollinating the 6 day old, when trying to remove the sacks?

Also, is hermied bud still good to medicate with?

yes, it will pollinate anything near it. and yes, the smoke can still be good

No, the moon doesn't cause hermies, it's just a trait in some plants.

Well, let's say that I have another clone of that same plant, which is actually the one 6 days into flowering inside the same room as the above. What should I be doing different to avoid such a thing?

Also, realistically, would it be worth it for me to play doctor and try to remove the sacks? How will the nanners affect the final product in terms of bag appeal, quality, and taste? I'm honestly considering just dumping it and accepting the fact that my cycle will be off..

the clone will hermie, just like the one you got. if you pick off the majority of pollen sacks, you will hopefully avoid a fully seeded plant. the smoke and bud can be worthwhile if the genetics are good to begin with and you grow a healthy plant.
 
same thing happened to one of my females hate those nanners! :cry: I had to remove the other two fems to a different tent im keeping my hermie though might be still not be a bad smoke I hopebongsmilie

I actually gave out a clone a couple of months ago from this same exact plant, and my buddy said that his did wonderful with no herming or anything of the sorts. I'm just really guessing that I caused some stress.. temps got high a few days, drank too much water causing the nutes to concentrate in the bucket, etc, etc.

Edit: Considering plucking and removing any kind of sacks today. Do I trim nanners off during harvest time, or will they kinda grow into the bud? First time with nanners here, lol.
 
I think it must be a combination of genetics and stress. I've stressed the $hit out of my plants a couple of times in a couple of different ways (heat, water light). I even tried to get some to hermie with light stress one time so I could get seeds. I've never had a hermie.
