Both of these plants are 1.5 weeks into flower. They are show numerous Female Calyx and Pistils, I believe these pictures also show Male Staminate. What say you? Do I have a case of the Hermies?

looks like a female calyx to me...usually male flowers have a little stem lifting them away from the stalk...but I could be wrong

Nice there is hope! On the err of caution, If they are male, will the stem thing form before I'd risk pollination?

Click to expand...

pollination occurs when the pollen sacks burst, so they must be fully formed before that happens. but its a good idea to remove them as soon as youre sure theyre hermie. id wait a little longer.

I got some hermies right now, I cant tell in the second pic but first pic def looks hermie. Just keep an eye on them and if your concerned with pollination of other plants just remove them when your sure. Give it a few more days and you really should be able to tell.
