The worst part is , I don't know if it's the seeds or stress. They were pricey and from a super good source . The thing is it was a flawless run. Not even a bit of burn on any plant and had beautiful green the whole way through. I'm scared if I use the last few GSC seeds I have there going to be Hermie also. There is a possibility light may have leaked through the zipper in my panda film, but I'm not sure how likely that little bit of light would effect them. May have been no light at all. I just could see my grow lights leaking out. But they were super bright. Compared to the lights outside the room. Had my heart set on gsc lol. We can't buy it around here because of some legal rights to the brand shit.
How many OP's are there in this thread?

How many male hermies have you seen so far twistedtyrant66?

If it is only a couple of balls they can be removed and the plant can still be grown out if you want.
Tons of balls would mean trashing the plant sure but a few in early flower can be removed and just monitor the plant, they often stop developing after the 2nd or 3rd week of flowering.

Some growers live by the rule that a plant that hermies is immediately out of the garden for good reason but a new grower with a few balls possibly from stress can remove them and continue growing the plant and "can" end up with an excellent harvest and possibly a few seeds.

All I'm saying is there are plenty of growers that would remove them and grow the plant.
There are also plenty of growers who will remove any plant that hermies from there garden.

Hey thanks for the info. I decided to do just what you recommended . I took surgical tweezers and removed what I could see . I got about 10 balls and that's with them in pairs ,so from about 5 nodes maybe. I think I had a light leak. It's a closet grow, and the hermied plant was dead center the door. It's well sealed with panda plastic ,but the zippers leaked. I spent a couple hours making zipper flaps and fixing the leaks. It was complete laziness on my part. It's my biggest of the 3 and my first run so I need to get a half decent yield to make this all worth it. I just finally bought the parts for a 4 Vero 29 b build . So I need to recoup the cost lol. I'm going to add a few pics of my plants . I showed the bad but you guys never got to see there beauty lol.
