Hermie plant / dutch master reverse

Hi there this is my first ever post so please be gentle/use lube.

In my current settup I have 10 Kalashnikova and 10 The doctor, both strains from greenhouse seeds. Each 10 are in their own Wilma System, each under a 600w hps.. both strains are at the start of week 5 12/12.

nutes are as follows for each 60 litre reservoir: canna a&b @180ml, canna boost @150ml, ph'd to 5.6-5.8

So doing a water change last night i noticed some little clusters of balls where each node leaves the main stem. The only affected strain is the doctor and not all are affected. I picked the balls off and disposed of them but im still worried

My uderstanding is that the plants have turned hermie? weather it be due to stress or genetics, a couple of times my temps have hit 30C but ive had worse temp issues in the past and never a problem

So my question i guess is this, what are my options? I have no interest in harvesting pollen or seeds etc, I just want A1 sensemilia bud. Ive done some digging on the forums and still not come up with a diffinitive plan of action. I am currently researching Dutch Master Reverse as this product claims to stop hermies/seed production etc. Does any one have experience with this product?

Im not sure what other info i have missed out and cant post pics as i have no camera.

Do i need to get rid of these plants or can i carry on? what are the dangers? any advice gratefully recieved. Thank you all so much in advance.

hey jimmy- sorry to hear of your hermie issue. i've been using the DM reverse for about 4-5 years. its recomended that you use saturator along with the reverse for better uptake. anyhow- i use it at the beginning of flower then repeat in 10 days per the manufactures recommendation. never had so much as a late season nanner. i've read that it can be used after the fact, but don't know how successful. remember- if the question is important, call the company's technical support. only once in 10 or so calls has anyone asked me what i was growing and i told them flowers!

First off thanks for the responses. I don't think it can be full male as it's flowering along nicely but could be wrong. Just on maybe 5 out of my 10 have I noticed balls/nanners and I just picked those little suckers off in between tears! Lol. The other 10 kalashnikovas are at the same flowering stage but showing hardly any signs of bud? Maybe it's just the strain my room is pretty good and I try to take care of my girls best I can. This is my 8th cycle and never had problems in the past. I have been reading a lot of bad things bout greenhouse seeds I'm just gonna stck to critical star in future that stuff rocks my world. If anyone else has an opinion is love to hear it. Thanks all. Peace.
 
I used reverse works good to kill banana s but can't find it anymore in colorado. So a good alternative is switch from optic foliar
