hermie problem

[clovisman]

i thought to fully remove the male part of a hermie you had to completly take off the branch because the whole branch is male? (im not sure if this is correct that is why im asking)

Funky- in the past I have had entire limbs turn male and cut those - this time I had small branches grow from a node and I clipped the offending flower- so the answer to your question from my experience is -could be either way
