If that's indoor definitely cut it down. If its outside and not near other girls, I'd just forget about it and come back for the hash material in a while, let nature decide how long it lasts.

Actually you should just take it out into an isolated spot ( good way to check if a new spot is safe ). If you come back and it's still there, you got trim+new "real estate"

So which plant is this exactly?

Polo is right on the money. Since the cuttings are parts of a hermie plant there gonna do exactly what the plant you took them off of did. Soooo I hate to say it but........

Kill Em!!!

What was the strain?  Are you 100% sure you don't have any light leaks--like if you go in and close the door when lights are out it is totally black?  What are your temps?  If it was genetic (not caused by environmental stress) then yes, your clones will hermie too...and that's not a trait you want around anyway.  Sorry, dude

Man I stood in my tent zipped it no light leaks. Now my Temps hit 89 or so at the hottest part of the day? That being said the other two different strain so no sign of balls

Well sorry but it seems they don't put the work into their strains to make sure they don't hermie before breeding or it maybe a breeding method they're using.  Either way they have released tons of hermies on growers around the world.

Here's a quick search I did.

Unfortunately..that's the moral of the story for so many of the issues people have with growing. 

You have to invest months growing the plants out; putting in the few hours of work to lower the chances of it all going to shit is really a necessity.

I hope your other plants finish okay

I hope they do too thanks. I put all those clones outside in the ground. I will just have seedie weed that some one will want when when its dry.

With my luck my crop would be downwind from yours.

Now I gotta hunt down the neighbor

if its in flowering and its veg season outside, you should place it outdoors !

Watch what happens when a flowered plant goes back into veg and then flowers later in season ! you will not be disappointed !

And although is 50/50 you will still get some great smoke or hash from it.

And risk pollinating anyone else's grow that could be in the area.  Not cool man.

I can understand why you'd say that...but pollen doesn't really travel that far...and I think a lot of outdoor growers would know the half-mile or so around their spot pretty well.  I guess backyard growing in a legal state would be a different story.  I heard someone joking once about throwing a fully flowering ten foot tall male out of an airplane over humboldt county in September...imagine the dollar value of crop that would be ruined..

I make seeds every year outside..one old spot was only maybe ten to fifteen acres and I made seed in three different places with multiple male plants in each location.  They were smaller males, four feet or so...but there were dozens of other plants scattered on that lot..just within a few hundred feet of the flowering males and out of a few pounds there were maybe 100 rogue seeds found. 

I'm not trying to say that inadvertent pollination isn't an issue worth raising/considering...and I can only offer a couple pieces of anecdotal evidence...but I think a lot of people shy away from making their own seed b/c they are worried about seeding their crop.  If you get a half-mile away that's more than enough buffer zone unless you have hundreds of ten foot tall flowering males.  Flowering males don't need much light, either, to produce enough pollen to make a bunch of seeds. These days I put all my males for the year in a shady spot down by a creek.  The pots don't really ever dry out because they don't have sun beating down on them..so I just come once or twice to collect pollen and then kill em. 


All that having said...I definitely wouldn't put those clones out.  There's still time to start seeds or get some different clones for that spot.  No use in putting in the time and effort, taking the legal risks and using an otherwise good grow spot for a plant that you already know is a hermie. 

I've noticed that the outdoors can often keep otherwise sensitive plants in check...but that seemed like a full blown inter-sex plant, not just an environmental sensitivity--if its true there are no light leaks and temps are in the right range.

Sorry for the largely off-topic novel

pollen can travel VERY far.

Well of course it can.  It's tiny!  Tiny amounts can travel hundreds of miles or farther with the right wind currents.  But for all practical purposes a half-mile is plenty far away to prevent a crop from being ruined (or genetics tainted).  99.9+% of pollen will not travel more than a couple hundred meters from a plant at maximum (of course we're talking about pollen only or mainly dispersed by wind)

A few small male hemp plants can easily be managed without too much of a risk.  Inadvertent pollination can be an issue and is something to consider --but it certainly isn't any kind of morally reprehensible act to make your own seeds outside!  These are some of the plots I mentioned..micro seed grows with big sensi plants just a few hundred feet away.  I have done this for years without issue..but like I said that is just my experience. 





A half-mile is more than plenty IMO..and while there are of course exceptions, the truth is very few people have other outdoor-dope-grower-people living within a half-mile of them  

So people make your seeds!  Hemp is meant to "just chill outdoors" (male and female!)

I see your point. I still have some critical plus clones I can put in that spot. Im just going to kill them .I have more than them . I cant chance getting seeds in everything!! Thanks for every ones advice.

Good call!  I think you'll be happy with that choice
