Here ya go. Note balls and hairs = hermie = bummer.

Mine dont look like that. Maybe mine isnt as hermie as yours is. lol mine has about 6 balls total spread over different nodes of the plant.

Is there a way to get only females seeds out of a hermie?

[jimmybobjoe]

My friend who has been growing for years says that the seeds will be all female if the plant turns hermie. he said that the reason they do this is because survival is the plants first and formost goal. Stress can kill a plant so the plant puts out all female seeds so that if somthing does happen after its life the seeds produce a plant that can go hermie if somthing stressful threatens the plants existant. its kinda of like an adaption. a male plant cant go hermie so producing a male plant in stressful conditions cant help the plant reproduce. I could be wrong but this is what my friend told me.

"mine has about 6 balls total spread over different nodes of the plant"

If there's balls and pistils it's a hermie. Not sort of a hermie. Just a hermie. And if one of those balls busts opens and throws it's seed all the females around it will be full of seeds. I've read of people pulling the balls off and growing them to completion with females in the same area, but most times they say that the females had seeds in them too upon harvest so they must not have got all of them.

Well here is a couple of different angles. Im open for opinions from everyone.

Just curious what your thoughts are on this Hardon. been following your posts for quite some time and you seem like you know your crap!!! Thanks in advance!

It doesn't take the 'exhaulted one' to see that plant is a hermie. Like I said balls + pistils = hermie. How much simpler can it be?

That said if it were my plant I'd pull the balls off it if there were only a few and keep it going. Watching really close to see if thier production increased to the point where it just wasn't worth the hassle of doing so.

The reason i was asking for several peoples opinions was becase bobbongs 2nd grow on page 4 they were debating if the balls on his plants were male or female. They finally came to the conclusion that they were female pods growing different. That is what i am hoping in my case. This is the first Easom hill strain ive attempted to grow and it truly has been growing different in many ways. i wasnt trying to sound like i wasnt listening to your opinion. I guess im just hoping for someone to tell me thay are female pods that have not popped yet. Thanks for your opinion, it is greatly appreciated.
