Did my plant just go hermie? If so, would cutting these off help?

Hi there Pengu. I have bad news for you, the answer to your question is "yes" . Unfortunately , it's really early in flowering, meaning that if you decide to "fight it" you have to do it for so many weeks and so much time that it will eventually be impossible and the other plants in the grow room will get polinated for sure. Sometimes if it's late enough in flowering you can fight it by using a razor blade to carefully remove them one by one, and you have to check the plant completely several times a day. Here you have time , usually the bannanas will take some time to mature . So what you can do is plan to remove it. Put a black trash bag on top of it and move it, this will protect the pollen sacks from accidentally opening up and contaminating the other plants. I'm sorry growmie, but I hope this helps ! 🚀

In the past i encountered the same problem, i had two girls on dwc which were much bigger. It's a real pain in the ass for pinching out the sacks. Hours a day searching and if you are too late and one pops that's it. If the sacks only form at the internodes you can pretty much salvage it but keep in mind you'll always find some seeds and in the worst case the buds are covered with undeveloped little seeds which reduce the smoke a lot. Some ladies doesn't like to be stressed out a lot and then they go hermie. I only use LST and topping before i flip the switch later on only defoliation if necessary. I'd say it's your choice but i would chop her down, like the others state, to save the rest. Btw, i only grow Liberty Haze or critical kush from barney's farm which are photoperiod so i got no experience with autoflower and stress.

Honestly if it’s just one or two sacs at that single node.. killing it off is overreacting IMO. I’ve pinched off several pollen sacs during flower and it was totally fine. Now if you’ve got dozens of them on that plant.. I’d probably kill it off.

I’m on board with kicking the fucker out. However if you are patient and you remove the nanners you can salvage this plant. I’ve heard of people keeping it going by removing the nanners. I however have no experience with this as I haven’t had this issue yet. Just throwing it out there that removing is an option. Good luck bro.

Kill that fucker quick if you value the rest of your plants your really lucky they haven't opened yet soon as they do the whole room is compromised lol stick a black bag over it take it out the house to a near field destroy it and then return wash your clothes and have a shower just to be sure before entering your flowering plants again :) Yeah its bit of a piss take but rather that than either having to replace your entire system or clean the fucker down like a 5 dollar whore :)
