Your hermies will polinate your GDP, but as for the quality of the resulting seeds.. who knows. If you want to sacrifice your crop for questionable seeds, then go for it. I wouldn't though. A high percentage of hermed seeds will carry herm genetic traits. IMO if you want cross breed, the healthier way would be to polinate with males.

If you want seeds, then let them breed. I'd suggest separating them and pollinating some of the lower bud sites by hand. This will give you seedless tops and your 3-way cross. As far as them passing on hermie traits, yes, some of the the seeds produced may be hemies, but the rest will be female, this is how you get "feminized" seeds.

are you noticing that the plant is "growing seeds" or are balls(pollen sacks) forming?

i would chop the male parts off and hope for the best but if your interested in the quality of your bud this time around, its probably best to chop those hermis

yes they are growing seed i snipped a couple of them off and there not sacks. only the two of them seem to be growing seeds. my gdp dont seem to be affected. i pulled one of them this morning because the seed count quaddrupled over night. the other one doesnt seem to be getting more seed the ones that i see are only growing bigger. thanks for you input:bigjoint:
