Do you destroy hermies? I assume the male parts would fertilize the female parts? What if you pinched off the male parts?

hi asintx, i haven't been growing long, i no the male can ruin the female, but as for pinching off the balls of a hermie i would'nt no. i don't take chances with a hermie, i pull them. maybe someone else can answer your question.

Thanks Florida boy,
well i could use some seeds, what if i let her in my room without HPS, just normal day light, pinch most of the balls 90% ?
Are hermie seeds good ?
its because i only got 2 of them and i think the other one is a female ?

i think i read somewhere that hermie seeds will produce hermies...
not 100% on that though...

I'd kill it. It's obviously got male in it, and i cant see any pistilles.

It looks more like a male to me.
Where do you see female flowers?
Hermie seeds have a 50% chance to be hermie.But thats just a male I think.

Thanks alot for your help, actually i don't see white pistiles(just these white looking flowers in the top), i just had to ask before i do anything. Everything is new for me and its hard to tell.

Can i do anything with a male, or i should just kill it (i dont want seeds)???

Thanks again

Yeah, you can reap pollen from it and use a little bit of it to pollinate one female plant if you want some seeds later on down the road for a hopefully good cross breed :).

My other plant is not showing any signs yet(no white hair nothing at all) and its the sec. week of flowering. What's the mater i can't understand ? Is it a female? Cause she doesn't have balls and i heard that males flower 1-2 weeks before females, that is what made me think she is a female. Am i wrong ?

I don't think anyone can answer this unfortunately.

Unless of course you sent a strand of it's genetics to a laboratory and got them tested..

damnit Jim, I'm a gardener! Not a psychic!

Thanks Grim i think i'll just have to wait then....
i so much needed to know, its my only plant left and if i need to kill it too, than i don't know if i will be able to start again ?

If it hasn't shown yet and the others did show that they are male. This one is probably a girl.
Is it smaller then the males?
Ussually feamles are about half the hieght of a male.(not always)

Thanks Jdog you gave me hope.
It's smaller 3/4 of the height male was.
