My plant turned hermie

I have been flushing for harvest for 3 days, today will be the fourth. I noticed that about 3/4 of the plant is a hermie. I Know that it went hermie due to stress, I broke a branch about the 4th week into flowering and been bending branches to keep them further from the light. Should I just harvest the good part of the plant and let the rest properly produce good seeds. I know that the will have hermie genetics but if I don’t stress them out the way i did this plant I should be ok but i won’t need to buy seeds for the rest of my life.

I would pluck off as many nanners as you can find and roll on. You may have a few seeds in your smoke but all good.

If you are close to harvesting its no big deal. Seeds take weeks to develop.
Just carry on as normal.

I was thinking about harvesting most or about half and then start fertilizing again and wait for the seeds to mature. I grow hydro so that part wouldn’t be hard to do but don’t know if that could be done and still give me seeds.

They were not finished ? Was they autos or photos ? When did you start the flowering schedule , tge week you flipped your lights to 12/12 or 3 weeks afterwards :thinking:, once you flushed out all the nutrients in the soil and they were still budding , you stressed them and they went into to protective mode to save the strain to firce itself to reproduce .
Auto -Flowers can be very tricky when they veg they start to pre-flower does not mean they are in budding phase its a diffence .

I think they are done They are photo’s and I grow in hydro, Iv’e never tried soil. I switched to 12/12 11 weeks ago and they started flowering 11 days after I switched I think DRsDank is correct Im seeing something that isn’t there, I may have flushed a few days early.

Not a good view to decide , you need a better scope on a lower bud from the top , they will always ripen first due to light exposure !

I know my scope is dirty from looking at buds, its several years old but the pics are from the bottom of the plant
