Joke Harvest...No meds... Help me with this herm!

I am a Fibromyalgia and PTSD sufferer and have been for years now. I am always losing and regaining insurance because of Gov Kasich's constant need to try and "fix the deficit". I fought through my joint and muscle pain and double dug out my own garden and transported a few clones outdoors, hoping to save a lot of money I could otherwise use for important things. I kept a plant inside to flower and it looked to be doing well. A couple weeks after flowering I noticed a male pollen sack and was quick to off the fan and grab some small scissors. I delicately castrated my plants male buds.

Soon after this my outdoor plants were looking good so I wasn't too worried. These plants were getting quite big and had lived through many storms. I was going to go out and fertilize a little and was quite shocked, devastated, and furious that most of the vegetation on all of my 5 plants had been eaten off. I surrounded remaining stalks with few leaves in a high chicken wire and tried to calm myself as best I could. I mean this stuff is really important medicine to me.

It happened again a week or two later right when I thought they were recovering nicely. Now the Herm plant is doing worst than ever with these pollen sacks and my outdoor crop was almost wiped out altogether. I couldn't keep up cutting the pollen out and I never interrupted light or stressed my plants to cause this. I am guessing genetics, they were bagseed after all. So now I am here with a semi-done flowering half-male ugly ass mofo plant.

A helpful person on the forum instructed me to make hash or hash oil from this plant. I need to know how much longer should I wait before chopping this sucker down, cleaning my grow area, and starting fresh with ordered seeds? I have to balance out how much more damage these male flowers are doing to my plant with how well the remaining female parts mature.

I don't know what to do and this plant probably wont have saved me any money in the long run. What a waste. Ohio needs medical marijuana fast.

When should I harvest to make hash oil based on these ugly pictures everyone?

it could have been the stress from having a good portion of it's leafs eaten off that made it herm.
 
Thanks for the input. Sorry if I didn't specify, the outdoor plants were eaten, the indoor hermy crop was never moved from this room and only transplanted once. This is the one in the pics that I needed help with. The transplant went very smooth and I never noticed any big cause of stress. The pH is 6.5ish and I have always waited 3-5 days to between waterings. I have grown a couple other times just when I wasn't able to afford any herb and I was always able to at least get a plant or two to harvest with no males or herms. That's right! I have never had a male plant before out of maybe ten!

Well this time wasn't really much fun and kinda has ruined my year so far. Bud is about $25 per half 1/8th of sensemilla here, which last me about a day or two and there isn't any cheaper seeded bud to be found. It isn't the lack of knowing that many people either. I've smoked for almost 10 years in this same area and nobody knows where the seeds went.

We think it is because almost every state bordering us has legalized medicinal marijuana and we have... mandatory six month to five year license license suspension for ANY drug charge. This includes marijuana, driving related or not. Why would our politicians claim to wanna fix economy, but take everyones way of getting to work is beyond me.
 
Also we have some knucklehead politicians here... Everytime we do petitions for the Compassion Act we keep trying to pass they find ways to squirm out or squash it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Kasich <---Wow another FOX politician and the same guy that wants to ban unions and cuts planned parenthood, WIC, medicare, and most other programs that help people.

Okay the first site was a joke site, but still funny. Both are against medical marijuana =(
 
Watch my video of what I did with my herm when I found out -> https://www.rollitup.org/harvesting-curing/442206-early-harvest-found-hermie-video.html

Also, even if you pull off the pollen sacs on the outside of nugs, the inside will have pollen sacs that are covered by female flowers that you can't see and if you let it continue growing they will pollinate its own plant and all your other females in the vicinity.

Good luck.
It got pollinated awhile ago. I am just trying to let what trichromes there are develop to the best point I can before hashing the plant.

Basically once a female is pollinated it will spend most of its energy producing seeds, not THC. Sorry.

that doesn't mean trichrome development stops I dont think. At least for the ones that are already there.
No but it slows almost to a stop. If you watch your plants closely with a jewelers loupe (what I use) or any strong magnification device you'd see they don't change color and no new THC forms once pollinated.
