Option one- spray the crap out of it with a hormone spray meant to kill the production of the hormone that causes hermies. Ive used it in the past and it IS an option, for plants that just have a small hermie issue, (plants can have minor, medium or major hermie issues where they get either a few, a moderate amount or are just covered thickly in bananas) So if its a minor issue- the spray works, but its DEF not organic and some brands in the past were banned due to the questionable ingredients that may have worked well, but who knows how safe they were. There days there are better quality ones out there, but again still DEF not organic. Option two; U can rip em off with tweezers if its a minor issue too, but in serve causes u wont be able to keep up, and the plants buds themselves will change structure and be more spindly and airy due to the larger amounts or hormones as well as the plant forming seeds not buds. So in moderate to serve causes the best thing to do is rip it out and destroy it. (U can also smoke the hermie bud just fine- it may be weak but if u get it before the seeds form its not so bad, I had a bunch of hermie lemon haze FULL of seeds that I still picked the seeds out of and smoked, wasnt the best but damm was tasty!! Aside from the odd burnt popcorn odour from when I missed a seed.) Option three- put it in a diff grow tent on its own, let it finish, it will be full of seeds- U can pick the seeds out and smoke bud, or make edibles/extracts with it. The seeds are actually tasty too, i munch on em for snacks, Yes I have that many seeds lols. And those seeds will grow into either female or hermie plants themselves. No males. Ive got thousands of stashed hermie seeds that will grow into a female or hermie as my back up to my back up seeds. Just in case I need to plant 500 seeds one day I have em, And I know around 40% will be female. (normally its more but I back bred the hermie plant in twice- youd get 50-60% females from your seeds)

Opción 1: Quitar la planta del indoor ya que puede polinizar el resto lo que hará que te salgan semillas hermafroditas den las otras plantas. Opción 2: Quitarle las flores macho y vigilarla constantemente por si surgen nuevas flores macho y eliminarlas. Opción 3: La dejas en el indoor y luego sacas hachís de todas las plantas y las semillas te las comes que tienen Omega 3 y Omega 6, pero no las plantes o tendrás el mismo problema...

Yes, this is the risk when growing random seeds. Unfortunately, you will have to remove this plant from your tent at a minimum, and at the extreme end, destroy it. Pollen from this plant will have a genetic trait for being hermaphrodite and any seeds produced with this pollen will carry this same genetic trait, even if applied to another pure female plant. The seeds will not be feminised, they will be regulars with an almost 100% chance of being hermaphrodites themselves. Once the plant pollinates itself, it will spend all of its energy into making seeds and not be making trichomes. By the look of it, you would have a very hard time trying to remove all the male flowers to prevent pollination, so getting rid of it might be the best (and saddest) option. Otherwise you could grow it in isolation and "see what happens". Again, this is the price you pay for growing random (bag) seeds, as they are generally the result of hermaphrodite plants. Good luck with whatever you choose.

Definitely a herm. It's going to seed the buds with worthless seeds that will also herm if you grow them. I would separate it if you have other plants or kill it if you dont have room somewhere else for it. It will still produce smokable buds
