hi

im 4 weeks into my grow and all the plants are forming amazing buds but today noticed pollen sacks forming that must have occured over night,

what should i do with these??? keep them flowering and see the results???

any info would be great,i have a g-13 in the flowering garden that does not hve pollen sacks,just the ak47's

cheers
 
Pictures ?

Sounds like it Herm'ed...

Pick um off, or seperate it from the rest, look at them as an infection for the rest of your plants....
 
depends totally on you personally. A few seeds is no big deal for me as they only really come into play when your selling by weight, and seeds are adding unusable weight that someone is having to pay for. I'm typically not willing to cut a hemie unless it is really early in flower because i would rather deal with a few seeds than with less bud, and the later into flower the show the less seeds will actually get made.
 
at that stage and with as many pollen sacks as are present i would remove that plant from my other plants.
 
It's just a isolated spot on the plant? One spot? Than just pinch the male organs off. Keep a eye on that plant. If its more wide spread remove the plant. Possibly consider destroying the plant, if its wide spread.
what caused the hermaphroditism? We're you having hight temps? Some other stress in the grow room? If not you could just about say the issue is genetic.
 
I agree with Don Pepe.
At the very least remove the plant from your other ones; isolate it so if those flowers open you won't fertilize your entire room.
I personally have had some bad experience with hermophradites and I would pick the thing immediately. When you're plants get bigger they can tend to sneak past you and the next thing you know your whole flower room is done.
Hermes are good for making hash out of though. I got over 32 g of blonde hash last season from a Hermie that was almost 6 feet tall. It was in the back my garden and I couldn't see it. I hate seeds so the whole garden had come down early.
Good luck.
 
Yeah I think I'm gonna have to pick what I see off and keep my eye on them,I only have 1 other but all really good plants otherwise,I'll post more pics later.! I have another room with several other strains veging.

So will the buds just produce clusters of seeds??? My room stays at 70 but possible at night drop as its been snowing and - temps wheir I'm from. I may keep a journal of them to see the outcome?
 
Just an idea of the top of my head here. Could you not cover the area with a bag of some of some sort so no pollen is released? Maybe plucking the sacks will only encourage the plant to produce more...

hite.

This sums up exactly how I feel about the issue. Last grow a Mad Shack went hermie after about 6 weeks, leaving me with a few seeds dotted about. Latest grow I had 3 Kosher Kush show full male flowers the day after showing full female flowers (about day 10 of 12/12) - these were culled immediately (thankfully I have 3 sugar punch too that are not hermie). No way I wanted fully seeded weed - it's just an effort to use the stuff.
 
Yeh I completely understand! My view at the moment is keep them going and try to remove my g-13 if thy isn't harmed then hopefully I won't be losing to much.one of my last grows of double x were blossomed beautifully but last week of flushing produced 1 or 2 seeds in each plant! I'm gonna try and salvage these the best I can! I'll add pics of progress or deteriation!

First off flushing in soil is a fool's errand. But please explain the mechanism behind flushing causing seed production.
 
I don't know about "clusters" of seeds but it will produce plenty.
One thing though; eventhough those will be femenized seeds they will carry The hermie gene.
