If you have no other plants in your garden at the moment, why not let it go? This will yield both good smoke and the potential of (what could be) more plants for you to grow later.

I had a lsd herm on me and ended up with a Hindu Kush x lsd , super critical x lsd, g13 x lsd and now through multiple iterations the g13 x lsd is putting out quite a bit more. To the tone of (almost) doubling the thickness of the flowers.

If you’d care to get rid of it you can but it’s not always a bad thing (especially herming this late in flower) to allow it to finish out.

Some people try pulling/cutting them out, then let the plants finish just watching like a hawk for more.

Yea problem is I have 6 other plants to worry about will it pollinate the others ?

It can, yes. I would get rid of it if you have other plants present.

Yes it will, if that’s the case I’d get it out. If you have another spot to let it finish out I’d do so but if not, cut it down, dry it back, and smoke what you can. It’ll probably be a more speedy buzz but at least you’ll walk away with something for your troubles.

Yea I’ll probably just give to my cousin and let him finish up out door … u think if we harvest this plant the smoke will be decent … I’m upset about this cause this has some nice buds stacking it must have just happened last night cause they weren’t there yesterday … is this a genetic thing you think or cause of stress… the nanners mean stress right ? Or is it opposite

There are a lot of factors that can cause it, but if I had to take a guess, is there light leak possible near this area? This late into flower going from a constant 12/12 then having a moment of 14/10 then back to 12/12 can cause the plant to try and reproduce for the survival of its genetics.

Nahh. Nothing I check all the time I’m in a sealed tent and I put black garbage bags around the windows no light gets in at all I actually make it my business to check every time … must be some kind of stress l but the plant looks over all really healthy

Have any of the upper to middle area fan leaves show necrosis or chlorosis or any color changes that aren’t associated with this particular strains floral coloration?

No just some dying leaves at the bottom of the plant because of light not reaching it but other than that nothing it really is puzzling … this is the whole plant

Genetics does play a part, and if you are buying female seeds they deliberately try to hermi the plant so all pollen is X with no Y. This would hide if the plant is more genetically likely to hermi.

Might try plucking them and dialing your light back a bit or raise it.
Your temps aren’t extreme.

The only thing I’m seeing on the plant at all is the fan leaves stems are turning purple, that could be a phosphorus lock out but also could just be a trait of that particular strain. Only other stress factor I see would be the size of the plant in the size of the bucket. But again, some strains don’t care about that and others are very sensitive to it.
