I do believe this lady has turned on me, yes?
If so… ouch. I’d really be curious how to avoid it in the future. I am pretty sure the answer is to cull it, but is there any hope to salvage this plant? Breaks my heart, you know?

You can chase the nanners(male flowers) but you have to be diligent and your bud on that plant will likely be lightly seeded. The issue is it will also pollinate other girls you have. If this is the only one I would just inspect them daily and get em. I have supplied a picture of what to look for.

I’ve done it. Pluck em out carefully as to not make more seeds

To avoid it it can be genetics. But usually stress over fertilization, over watering, heat stress, but usually it is light leaks IMHO.

Well it seems you have 2 options my friend. Chase and snip balls and nanners or cull. It all depends on what you want to do .

It’s all up and down the main stem of two of these girls, I think it’s hopeless to pluck them. I’m debating do I just let it go to seed, or do I save the one plant? Tough one.
I have one of strain a, which is still a true female. The. Two of strain B, both hermies. Could be genetics? I don’t know, this is my first grow. I don’t have enough experience in this setup to say. I defiantly overwatered them early on. There may be a small light leak from the duct coming off the veg tent… I have some 90 degree elbows coming on back order.
How much yield could I actually expect to salvage here? I’d rather have one great plant than three shit ones, you know?

Hmm. It seems I am not so good at sexing these early flowers… they look just like the shape my male had, although they never threw pistols.
So yeah, they’re tear drop shaped, with two orangeish white pistols.
