day 13 since the switch to 12/12 i was looking over the plant and there is one branch that has possible male parts is that possible that its just one branch would it be worth it to grow it will it hurt my yeild at all if i pluck off the male parts really would hate to chop would leave me with one

you may have to deal with a few seeds , i would let it grow and try and keep all the male parts clipped off , or like you said cut your # of plants in half

You're right it's a fucking Hermie pic 3&4 clearly show both male & female id, I'm feeling very sad for you cause otherwise you have a nice looking plant but there's nothing else to do other than pulling it & start over. If you let it finish the buds will get full of seeds & the potency will be very low.

1 branch only? me personally would cut that off cause i don't think its genetic.I still got my herm that had balls on the lower half of the plant,i cut all growth from the bottom and now she got nice fat buds and no signs of more balls and it's been 3 weeks.

that is not how you get fem seeds, its how you get seeds with a very,very high tendency to hermie. chop the branch off.
ill chop once i see more but thats was the only 2 spots on the branch i just plucked them everywhere else on that branch is just a bunch of hairs

okay i got a question if it does start throwing more balls is it possible i could just pluck them all and still get a good harvest i have the time to spend with them so i can search everyday

I tried that with a nirvana ice I was growing. Those things grow like wild fire when they are content on staying. Just ended up chopping it down.
