Rep Power: 500 | | I Think I See A Hermy???
WEEK 3 of bloom this lady dropped her balls.
Look at the base of the bud stem,do you see them?
Is this a good example of a HERMY.
Should I separate it from the others?
Should I just let it do its thing?(hermy's produce female seeds.)

If you leave it in with others, they will be pollinated too. If you want lots of seeds, leave it. Otherwise, you should get rid of it.

Rep Power: 500 | | Can it be shocked back
I remember reading here in a thread something about being able to shock it back to female. Is that possible???

If there is something like that here, I must have missed it. I can't believe it would be possible to get it to return to being female. You could try picking off all of the boy parts.

nope, with a simple shock you won't do it here anymore. this is a full hermie now. with gibberellin acid you might be able to return it to either female or a normal male but this stuff isn't harmless as it is hormone active to do the trick!
i would get me the branches with the balls and harvest the pollen for some seeds later one and put the rest to waste. if you just leave it in the grow like this you will have some seeds all over and a lousy buds.

Was the plant significantly stressed before going hermie? if not, the tendency to turn hermie may be passed on to any seeds it pollinates. If it was significantly stressed the pollen may be used to make feminized seeds from what I understand.....The thread that several posts may be refering to is the idea of making an older female go hermie to make the pollen to get feminized seeds.

Rep Power: 500 | | FYI: Hermies Can Be Stopped
I took Leana to a closet far far away(another county)
She had her balls clipped and clipped and clipped,and this went on for two weeks and then she stopped producing balls and went back to blooming.
And is producing some wonderfull buds.

Yes, I had a girl that did the same thing. I removed the nads and so far, no more evident. I am keep a close eye on her/him. LOTS of hairs but no more nads.
