To Cull or not to cull (Hermie pollinated everything)

This is my post although i come to this site very frequently to gain as much info as I can.

I have experienced my first hermie. It was 1 of 3 plants I had growing in a 4x4 grow room. I vegged my plants for 9 weeks and am currently in week 4 of flower. In week 3 I noticed pollen on some leaves and found the hermie. I sprayed the room down with water and removed the culprit but it was too late. 3 days later all the pistle hairs turned red and now every pistle has a seed pod attached to it. Now my dilemma is that they were pollinated so early in flower will I get any yield at all? Was thinking I could still make hash but will I get any more growth from the plants or are they done now? Should I just pull the plants and start over or wait it out?

Obviously keep going. You’ve never had cannabis with seeds in it before? You lucky dog if you haven’t. Keep going. Also try the seeds. You might really surprised.

I've had seeds before. Just not to this extent. I'm in uncharted waters here. That's why I'm not sure what to do. Even with the massive amount of seed pods will the buds still gain any mass? Enough to make it worth a hash run?

If you finish the grow you'll have buds with seeds and normal potency.

If you cull the grow you'll have nothing or maybe some not that great hash.

You got thirteen weeks invested, no sense in wasting that. imo

Thanks guys. Seems the consensus is to see it thru. Was good to hear. I knew I'd get some good answers. I was ticked off and ready to scrap it all. Just needed to hear some other feed back.
