Isn't a stress-induced hermie one way to get fem seeds? anyone?
yes it is.....

but i would stay away from those if i were you. my first grow i got a hermie(first grow, no experience and my plants got beat up a little to say the least) plant and seeded the 5 other plants too(not too much seeds, maybe on average about 50 seeds per plant).... my second grow was with the "femm" seeds and they all turned out hermie to some extent. i chopped these down early, at the 6th week because i didnt want to develop seeds.

quintessentially, i will never experiment with femm seeds again.. i messed up a whole grow.. maybe you would have better luck than i did though

just my 2 cents:mrgreen:

my fem seeds are fine. the heat-stress induced hermies are from regular seeds. I have yet to have a fem seed go hermie and you know what? if a fem seed goes hermie due to stress then chances are good a regular seed would have done the same thing. i like my fem seeds and haven't had any issues with them. In fact, the opposite has been the case for me (that is - regular seed gives me more problems - males and hermies - than fem seeds).

it's not like i don't have the tools and material laying around. one of the things stopping me is i'm out of town a lot so have to leave them for a week quite often. the established plants don't seem to mind (unless they overgrow into the lights) but wouldn't clones be more sensitive to leaving them that long? the other, and primary reason is the penalties increase with the number of plants - and clones count as plants :(

maybe you didnt see it the first time....


dutchmaster reverse??
i saw it but figured the plant was seeded (i'm guessing hundreds if not thousands of them) - when i cut it down and ran my hand down the buds - all i heard was seeds hitting the floor! it was pretty amazing really.

i figured it was too far gone to do anything chemically about it.

i like hearing about it - besides my memory sucks which is why i tell the same stories over and over.

OK - some more bad news - one of the plants was filled with seeds. SEEDS! WTF!!

Guess it was a heat-stressed hermie - wonder if i should have harvested the seeds.. hmmm too late now -it's gone gone gone.

i suspect pollen got everywhere judging from the number of seeds but i didn't have the heart to rip out either of these two .. yet....

in case you're wondering why i'm not freaking over all these set backs i'll tell you - first - getting upset won't fix it and two - the primary issue:heat has been resolved so the next grow should be awesome!
in the meanwhile though...
and then there were two....
Yea man, no need to get all fucken stressed out. That won't do anything but make things worse.

Those buds in pic 3 are looking fucken delicious!

Man, I've been gone for one day and your thread has exploded with posts! I'm so jealous...

R.I.P to the hermie...
