ok heres my problem i have 5 plants that are all about 5-6 feet talk except fpr one that is only 3ft tall. i caught one plant that was a male and removed it from my grow room. now the leittle one that is 3 ft tal started to bud about a week before the others did. BUT wat i didnt know is it was a herm, i saw the little flowers and i knew something was wrong but i didnt know what, i just read that its a herm and i almost threw up. this is my first time growing. what are the chances that my other 3 femals are fertilized from this little herm bastard? it was moved since this pic, it was in the corner more away from the others, i now have the herm seperated by a sheet, i want to crop it i just dont want my other crops to be filled with seedz........:confused:

More than likely they will all have seeds now. You can try to pick the male flowers off when you see them. They should be ok until they open and release pollen. I had a few older plants in my crop that were still maturing from the last crop and a few of them threw a few male flowers. I hope I cought it in time.

yeah the sheet isnt going to help. its prob too late anyway, but if you get it out now you will prob. reduce the amount of seeds... even having it in the same house is risky. pollen can travel easily.

A few very helpful tips
A higher nitrogen concentration will give more females.
A higher potassium concentration will give more males.
A higher humidity will give more females.
A lower temperature will give more females.
More blue light will give more females.
Fewer hours of light will give more females. It is important to start these changes at the three-pairs-of-leaves stage and continue for two or three weeks, before reverting to standard conditions.
To produce our feminized seeds, we start with selected female clones. Under standard conditions these female clones do not produce any male flowers. By the method we found, we are able to have these female clones produce abundant male flowers and pollen . The pollen thus produced we use for the production of our "female" seeds.

i was doing that everynight i sprayed 24 fl oz. on all 5, for one to simulate rain and 2 to strenghthen the stalk, but this was before i knew it was a herm, you think that might have helped?
