Will a ruderalis plant pollinate my two females?

My qeustion is as simple as the title. I have been vegatiting 3 plant's in a small closet grow. It now looks as if one of them is a Ruderalis plant. I just started flowering them today, and I just wanted to know if the Ruderalis plant will polinate my other two females? Note that the Ruderalis plant is starting to sprout white hairs.

Sprouting white hairs doesn't mean it's a ruderalis, could simply be preflowers..

But yes, ruderalis is just another class of cannabis plants, like indica and sativa .. any of the three could pollinate the other, this is how hybrids are made..

I was not saying that the white hairs meant it was a ruderalis, I was just noting it had whtie hairs due to the fact that white hairs typically would mean it is a female plant. Like the other two females. I just do not know if Ruderalis are hermaphrodites or not. My other two plants are female so I doubt they would pollinate my other plants. The plant looks like this

That's a straight up male in pretty heavy flower, super ready to bust pollen all over if it hasn't already.. :(

And no, ruderalis is no more likely to be Hermie than say an indica or sativa..

I should have clarrified that was not my exact plant. But it look's just like that, except smaller, and the balls are not spread out everywhere. I am guessing that is a hermy then because it has the hairs as well as the balls D; look's like I am going to go kill it.

Yeah, it was a male a week ago. I would have gotten rid of it before a week ago probably. And that will pollinate any female cannabis plant. I'm not sure about hemp but he would probably do her too. LOL
