Unscrewing the Girl?

I got a bit ahead of myself and got a clone before I had my grow set up. As a result I have a Lemon Tree that is short and bushy, but may have hermied? I kept her in a cup for about four weeks after I got her and her, then put her in my areo tub. She stalled for a while but was putting out hairs and tricombs like a bitch! I figured since she was entering flower that 12/12 was in order.

Bad move! I had a light leak! She started putting out single leaf leaves and her tricombs disappeared. After a Q&A on RIU I switched back to 16/8 and after a week or so she resumed normal leaf formation. After another week she started putting out hairs and seems happy. Since I started a Tangerine Dream Auto and have the TD in the same tub. The TD is growing well and just fim'd her, The TD should finish a little after the LT if the LT is really in flower?

Since the LT is putting out hairs at 16/8, should I just leave her there and let the TD grow, without going 12/12?
She was a miniature little plant until now, she's growing bigger now and with ~225 watts of burple about 8" over her head she seems to be roaring.

Yesterday I was looking her over and found what looks like "Nanners" starting on several places! Did she Hermie? These sites look like a single calex (?), not as elongated "Nanner" like as a normal male flower.

What to do? Just leave her run and pick off the "Nanners". Let her grow and see if she self seeds?

I'm just going to let her run like she is and concentrate on my Tangerine Dream. They should both finish about the same time.
I had wanted to clone the Lemon Tree but she started flowering too soon. I may try to clone her anyway just to see if it will work.
