IMO, dealing with Hermaphrodites is good experience. Ive done 2 grows with Hermies and I know so much more about MMJ than if I had never dealt with this problem. Some dont consider Hermies a problem like others, and they take complete advantage of the situation.
First, dealing with your Hermie will cause you to become very familiar with your plant, via a magnifying glass. I looked my plants up and down so many times, I know every node, every flaw, and practically EVERY leaf on my plant(s). This will teach you the finest details that go into a solid grow far sooner than another grower who is learning the ropes. I simply yanked any Balls off the nodes where they came up, and pulled the Nanners out of the buds with sterilized tweezers. Yes this was tedious, but like I said, this caused me to watch my plants for any sign of disease, deficiency (light, ferts, temps), and growth production problems.
Second, dont listen to ANYONE who says Hermaphrodites dont produce dank bud!!!!!! My weed was so fucking good, my good friends who grow for Dispensaries in busy California couldnt believe how solid and sweet my finished product was! Taste, affect, and harvest were ALL good.
Third, ANY seeds you acquire will be Feminine. Yes, they will have the Hermie trait, but keeping your grow room stress free can help draw down the chance of the plant producing any pollen. And, you wont have to buy any seeds for your next grow if happen to get super good weed from your Hermie that you want MORE of.
If you are careful and patient, you can keep seed production to a minimum, or almost none. This happened on my first grow. My second grow, which has had some Hermie activity, I have ripped every part I could find away from the plant, and so far (based on my last experience) I should have only a few (if any) seeds.
Keep in mind, I feel that ANY bag seed (for the most part) is a Hermaphrodite product. No one grows with a male plant in the garden ON PURPOSE, unless they are a breeder or are stupid! LOL It is possible if people are growing outdoors, that if someone isnt paying attention to their grow, a male could blow pollen all over the neighborhood, scoring some pussy on the weed you found a seed in.

Nice post guitar man...I'm keeping the plant...she's all female today
...and will stay that way if I have anything to do abt it...I cleaned the shit outta the inside of the plant for easy scoping and access...which also lollipopped her which I'm sure will pay off considering she has like 40 tops...ha...im shooting for 3 or 4 zips

Lmfao!!! I found myself last night looking at my beautiful girl that starting looking into sex change 29 days in!!!! So I smoked a bowl, then a J, then I stared for what could've been an hour and just couldn't do it. Picked the couple pollen sacks I saw and called it a night. Today at work I can't stop thinking about what's going on in the garden and if any other balls have come to life
. I'm super attached to this girl and idk if I can let her go... We'll see what's really going on today cause last night lights went out so had to leave her alone for the night . GL, I'll keep checking to see your outcome. IMO if it's not for retail then why comit murder? Let shim live and smoke what you want and make shit with the rest. Shit mine has so much bid on it already that a few seeds just won't make much a difference, in my eyes anyways. I caused the issue with my horrible climate and feedings. Now I have to suffer the consequences and make sure on my next go I keep things better controlled and I should be fine. Again GL and HG!!!
