Feminized Bubba Kush turned Hermie, Should I keep?

Hi, I took a visit to the growroom today and spotted a terrible problem. 2 of the 4 plants I have turned hermie and they were of feminized seeds. I believe they turned because we stressed them out during the first 2 weeks by putting them on full strength veg of GH 3-part series. One of them actually has seeds dangling and pollen when I flicked the leave. What should I do?

Feminized seeds are prone to hermi in some peoples opinions. If I was you, I would isolate the hermies one another, and the others who havent hermied. Its probably already too late, and if pollen is visible its already pollenated your other two plants if they were females flowering as well. Remove the hermies from each plant, and hope no more arrive is my best advise. I wouldnt trash the variety just yet.

Update, I put the hermies back into a soiless mix and they filled up as if they preferred that mix over hydro. So, I'm thinking maybe I put the plants in too quick or too much lights(5000w) for a vegging plant. Can too much light stress a plant even if its ventilated properly?

Any form of stress can make a plant herm - even too much extra N late in the flowering cycle can promote it on some strains.
