guys, i have a pure sativa in 12th or so weeks of flowering. this morning i noticed if my plant is hermaphrodite. im sure it happens because of the light leak during the dark cycle. so what should i do with it? can i just pull off the male thingy everytime they grow out or is there any way i could do beside chopping it off? need help guys. thanks a lot!

well i know that one of my girls did that last time. i didnt have the heart to chop her though everyone here might disagree. I just let her grow out and harvested what she gave me. i still got quite a bit off that plant.

this is covered in dozens of other threads my man... search function is a wonderful thing.

Yes, you can just pull the male thingy off. No, there's no reason to panic. Unless you're worried about the pollen contaminating other plants there's nothing much to worry about, you'll just have some seeds in your smoke.

It's been speculated by DJ Short that hermaphrodism is pretty standard in Sativa's... Breeding tips | Cannabis Culture Magazine (http://www.cannabisculture.com/articles/2600.html)
