You can keep it if you want to constenetly look for balls...the buds will have very little seeds. Some people see a hermie and freak,but the truth is if you cut off the balls (and they give you plelty of warning)the buds are not worth lossing to me...I'd make hash out of it after I cut of the balls all season...but it's your coice.If I had all those other plants I'd just maybe kill it,I don't know.
