Hermie Alert - Calling All Master Growers

Hello everyone, I have a little problem.
I have been growing three girls - Jamaican Pearl, and all has been going well (details here https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/655789-here-come-girls-first-timers-7.html ). I am on day 49 now and 9 days since I switched them to 12/12 and it's look like 2 out of 3 are Hermies!!! Grrrrrrr. Am so upset.

Photo evidence of the crime:

So the big question is what do I do now?

Do I pinch off the balls and hope no more grow? Do I get some of that Dutchmaster Reverse stuff? Do I just get rid of them..?

It will be a sad, sad day if I have to escort them from the premises.

Please, any help and advice welcome.

Thanks, Lady H x
 
Happened with one of my plants, I had a couple choices, either kill it, or plant in the woods... I found a spot in the woods.
 
lol if someone find it then its theirs.. Im not expecting it to make it in the woods, I spotted 2 tents about a hundred yards away where some homeless live.
 
It was pretty sweet, he had a nice sized tent, weeds picked from the lawn, a couple chairs, bonfire and fenced in.
 
Mine was fem also, I think it hermed out because I had the doors open and someone turned on the lights for about 1/2 hour. feminised seeds will herm out if they are under kind of stress.
 
I feel for you lady H.

I just had to bury two OG Kush's at 6 weeks old (I accidentally poisoned them).

It's a shame they had to perish so young.

I keep blaming myself.

Oh no! How did you poison them? It's devastating isn't it....?
I keep blaming myself too. I mean it has to be something I did right? Just got to work out what so I can learn from the mistake and not make the same one again. I must have over done the LST & defoliation.

Any way Herbs, onwards and upwards. Gotta keep keeping on.

Defoliation can stress your plants and cause hermies. Try to manage your environment for minimum stress on the girls. Heat, humidity or lack of, cold, light leaks all will cause probs
