Help did my plants turn male!

Plant is a hermaphrodite, lovingly referred to a hermie around these parts, sometimes sterile but if you think you so pollen than probably not.
A hermie can be caused by human error such as light leaks or under watering but can also just be built into the plants genetic code. Interestingly seeds that grow just fine outside can herm in an indoors environment.
Sadly best thing to do is just scrap the hermie plants, if you think you got to the issue early the rest may just be lightly seeded if not scrap the lot unless you want 100's of seeds and not much bud.

The seeds were random from a friend
Then it could easily be bad genetics. Those buds currently will do nothing in the way of getting you stoned. Unless you have other plants you can move into the space, might as well grow them out, especially if it is for yourself.
I only grow clones or seeds from reputable seed companies.

Spray everything with water to sterilize any pollen floating around.
If there isn't many male flowers you could
Pull the make flower sacks off and see if she stays a girl. There is some risk involved in that of course, but i would chance it until it grows lots of bananas then scrap it. A couple male flowers doesn't always ruin the crop if removed early

Thanks I'll try growing them out and see what happens.
