Curse of my friend who can't grow

So I have a friend who I’ve tried to teach how to grow. But no matter what, he finds a way to screw it up. Now his issues are slowly bleeding into my grows. I need some advice with this latest saga. I had some room in my inside grow space, so he said he had too many plants for his flowering tent and he would bring me one. I didn’t expect much as some of the stuff he’s given me in the past needed emergency care and a long rehab to get back to something viable. However, this time he delivered a good looking plant that was just starting to flower. He had apparently cut his lights back to 12/12 just to sex the plants, despite me telling him that it was not needed and the sex would reveal itself eventually. Anyway, I get the plant and make space for it. It went into my space under 12/12 around July 1st. She flowered for a few weeks and I could tell it wasn’t the strain he told me it was. Then more recently, I notice what looked like seed pods. After closer examination, I found a bunch of seed pods…..a couple of the big colas are flat full of seeds. I paid him a visit and looked at his grow. Damned if he didn’t have 3 good sized plants in full flower……but one of them was MALE. I asked if he preferred his buds to be full of seeds? I then pointed to the obvious, to which he replied that he thought the “buds” looked different. Well no sh!t…It turns out, the plant he gave me was in that same tent with the male…..go figure.
He also said he was given some seeds by someone and my plant might be one those…..which are supposedly Super Silver Haze.
This plant of mine is a shit show…..seeds all over……foxtailing top to bottom…..and looks like it has a long long time to go and its week 8 or so of flower. I’ve included 3 pics. Pic 1 was when I got the plant on July 1 and it has clearly been flowering a week or so already. Pic 2 & 3 are from today.
There’s no way my light or the temps have caused this foxtailing…..I’m not pushing her hard and my canopy temps are 77-78F.
I’ve never grown a haze and am hoping this is how they usually look. But this plant hasn’t done a thing in like 3 weeks…….white pistils everywhere and nothing is progressing.
Help me out here……I would remove it and toss, but it smells soooo strong and I’m hoping there may be a few buds without seeds…..
Thanks

got one of them too - no matter what they manage to f it up. But I have a rule I follow - nobody else's stuff goes in my tent...period. Too much time, $, effort invested in keeping the ...well ladies if ya know what I mean.
 
I don't know the answer to your question, but your plant looks pretty hungry to me.

If it were mine, I would grow it out and see what happens, with a plan in mind to make oil of it if the buds aren't good for smoking /shrug
I agree she looks hungry…..I top dressed her a few days ago, so I’m hoping that does the trick.
