Okay guys and girls,
First grow here, specifically for personal use only. I thought i had at least 1 f male, but now its not looking too good. Let me know what you think i should do .

There are two seperate plants. Also, anyway i can cut up the male if it is a male, and dry those small buds ontop to smoke??? Throw them in the micro-wave??
THANKS!!

First set: This is the first one, i think female?

This is the second set:
thinking probably male. But the pistils look great but there are what i think are "balls"

THANKS!! too all!

thats what i was thinking.....There are like little "bud" things ALL over the stems. So i have limited space/lighting. What do you suggest i do? Should i let the hermie live?? Kill/smoke the hermie and put all power to the F male?? will the hermie cause seeds in the f male?

You should for sure kill the hermi and smoke it, the bud isn't going to really get u high but if u let it dry out naturally it might get you buzzed and hungry. Then exactly as you mentioned put everthing you got into the female.

If you were to keep the hermi in with the female the hermi would eventually pollinat itself and the female.

if you have the time you can still save a hermie... by trying to cut every pollen sack so it doesn't produce seed in your buds. I did that once and had a few seeds on the bottom buds but the top bud was good.

Take a razorblade and cut off the "balls", if you want to keep the hermie around. It works, Ive heard of other people doing this. Up to you tho!

Oh yeah, and if you are going to kill it and try to smoke the bud, use the microwave to steam dry it.

using a microwave, oven, blow dryer ,defrost on car, all will take most of the thc out of it, just place somewhere for about 5 days, also try to cut it right when the lights are about to come on (night) If you try cutting the sacks off everyday you run the chance of pollinating the other plant and being fucked, literally.

Doing a quick dry doesn't take away anything other than favor. It'll still have the same amount of THC but it'll taste like home grown.

word guys,
thanks for the advice. I'm thinking about keeping the hermi around for a little while, see how manly she/he gets. Also, i will try to cut out the balls....while away from the female, blow it off with a fan then put back, i guess. Hopefully my lovely lady will be stay a virgin, but if not o well. Do seeds take anything away from the harvest? Do they take up any of the nutes or decrease yield? Pretty sure there aren't negative side effects of having seeds in the crop.
Also, the hermi will still produce a reasonable amount of bud right?

When a female is fertilized it re-routes thc and energy into the production of seeds. So this means it lowers the quality of your buds. Weed without seeds is called Sensimilla. Its much better.
When you cut off the balls, make sure you wash your hands afterwards as well, which is always a good thing to do when ever you are going to touch your plants, especially if you smoke cigs, nicotine is poison to the plants.
I think thats a good idea to do the ball chopping in a different room, as well as blowing it off with a fan for a bit. Cant hurt anyway.

Ya, i'm still unsureeeee. Jesus though, i really fucked up now.

I just did a trim this morning, and really should of asked you before hand. I feel so bad for the lady/hermi and feel like i fucked up baddd. Now that i'm reading, KEEP THE FAN LEAVES - THEY ARE THE FOODD SOURCE. So i definately left a few large leaves and multiple small ones near the bud sites, but definately took off too many.......So worried, how hurt will she be?

So what now?

She will finish, dont abandon hope just yet. Its most likely going to lower your yield tho.
