 Is it possible

For a female to shoot out a couple male flowers due to stress(I guess its stress, maybe from topping, its been with the others and they didnt do this) and not be a full blown hermie? I have a female clone, with some others, and its the only one that shot out some male flowers (in the lower/mid parts of the plant) yet all the higher parts of the plant looks to be all female flowers. Is this plant full blown hermie, or is it possible for it to still be female? I dont wanna kill it because its a topped one, and a good size, but I feel like I might have to, because I do not want my crop seeded.

Yep, its definitely possible that stress caused the plant to produce some male flowers, and not a full-blown hermie. When you mention it is a female clone, with others, are they all of the same female plant? Anyways, some strains are more prone to produce male flowers than others due to stress.
What you can do is simply pinch off the male flowers that are developing, and wait to see if more develop. If it just keeps producing more and more, then you'd best get rid of it, but otherwise, getting rid of those flowers and keeping a good eye on it should work fine.

Ive been watching her closely. Im gonna give it some more time before I make the final decision.
And yea, all from one plant.

Yes, what Sirius said. Get rid of it if it produces too much male flowers to control.
