those are fully opened pollen sacks and whatever is in the tent probably got seeded. now sometimes hermie pollen is not that viable and you may find only a couple of seeds here and there and sometimes its as viable as a male plants pollen and you’ll find thousand of seeds. first thing to do is to pluck the pollen sacks and inspect the rest of the buds for three things: pollen sacks, bananas and seeds. if you dont find many pollen sacks or bananas and you think you can ride it out till harvest try that by plucking the ones you find. but 99.9% there will be seeds somewhere on that plant and maybe everywhere just so you know. seeing youre well into flowering if this is your personal stash you can afford a couple of seeds here and there. inspect the plants for pollinated calyxes as well. seeded calyxes swell up and they crack open right in the middle and you can see the classic tiger striped seeds in there or when they are immature theyll appear white. from the looks of those pollen sacks they have been open for a while and whatever pollen they might have is mostly released and is already in the grow space so you should go by instinct on this and weigh your pros and cons. for example: weed with some seeds or no weed? or weed with a lot of seeds or no weed? but seeded weed is still smokeable eventhough sinsemilla is the ideal form especially if youre donating or doing this commercially. use a wet paper towel to pluck the pollen sacks this will prevent any further release of pollen.

Cheers for both your guys input, that was a stress I wasn't expecting. Normally I'm on top with inspections and the last 4-5 days I've had to jsut water em when needed. I've done that as suggested had a good inspection found 2 seeds in amongst the 7 plants. Hopefully it isn't too bad, I don't want to bin them especially that one that's got the sacks as that's a huge plant. I've separated them best I could and turned the fan away from the one that's turned. I've got one in flush atm was going to chop it Monday she's coming down tomorrow. I've got another 6, wish it was the one ready tomorrow with the pollen sacks. I'll be on top of inspections any sites I see I'll get rid.

It looks like he has shot his load as well, You will see yellow powder. Turn off all fans. get a plastic bag and carefully put the bag over top doing your best not to hit the plant and spread more pollen. Once bagged. seal and remove. Use a damp cloth to carefully wipe the area doing your best to not stir up and spread the pollen. Pollinated buds will have the white hairs QUICKLY turn brown. Brown hairs are normal with un-pollinated buds, but they turn a lot slower.

So any ideas on what I should do? I don't want her to infect the rest of the tent.
