Is this a hermie?

2 weeks into flower, I think one of my phenotypes is turning hermie on me, it's in house genetics sMACkin.IMG_0277.JPG

Looks to be so. As pricey as those beans are I’d pluck them, and move the plant. A lot of time put into it by this point.
Do what you will tho.
Yeah man, I have put £2,000 into my 4x4 setup, I got a lumatek 465w Zeus pro which cost me £650, my gorilla grow tent was £300, the seeds were £200, My dehumidifier was £300 lol I have spent a shit load of money on this project and probably about £500 on electric over the last 10 weeks and watering until run off everyday is making me super tired all of the time. I would hate to waste all of this time and money just to end up with buds of seed. I felt the hermie part that looks suspect and it feels hard, unlike a Calyx which is soft. Should I wet my finger tips and pluck it off just in case it is a male part?

It looks like the mother fuckers over at in house genetics don't care about there customers anymore. I spent £200 on pack of 10 seeds and they are all hermie prone. I knew I should of gone for the Platinum kush breath remix again, instead of these hermie looking mother fuckers. Those plants were all top shelf quality buds and I didn't find any hermies whatsoever. Sorry to rant on I'm just pissed off that they never tested the line before releasing it. They know there is a problem, they just won't admit it. And 95% of there genetics have been removed from Attitude seed bank. They only have 4 different strains for sale. It's Bad news all around https://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/in-house-genetics/cat_238

I thought the MAC-1 Mac Daddy Pancakes line by In House Genetics was supposed to be stable? But it is clearly not. Damn man :sad:

I'm going back to Cannarado Genetics after this. Fuck in house genetics. I will pick up some seeds from Cannarado Genetics 6 seeds for 80 dollars and I will wait until they release a nice Gelato Guava cut or some dank shit that will sell out fast and take some clones and name them so I know what is what.

Thats a young plant too have balls. Agree with Hydro too move it . Thats a true intersex. Your canopy will fill back in.
The cookies pancake line, in house genetics mac-1 mac daddy line is full of hermies. I have only heard bad news and it worries me. I have no where to move it. I have 1 small 4x4 tent and that's it dude.

I hit my head off my Lumatek 465w LED and because it has magnets when I banged my head it fell down and hit the plant I culled today... So maybe the led strip hitting the plant caused it to go hermie? The only other thing I can think of is the vents on the gorilla grow tent could be letting enough light in to turn 1 of them hermie?

Unfortunately, there's a good chance that almost ANY strain you grow is going to present this tendency. The strains now are so complex and the lineage is so deep and convoluted with hybrids crossed with hybrids crossed with hybrids. The more "stuff" that's in there, the more chance that gene is going to appear. I just grew some seeds from a highly reputable seller (Archive) and the strain was Chemdozer and the "Chem" is from "Chemdog" -that was a strain made from a bag seed back in the day....and every hybrid that uses Chemdog has a good chance of showing some balls at some point. Why? Because those Chemdog seeds were likely the result of the original flower pollinating itself. So, now, the gene is in there and subsequent hybrids that use it, will potentially carry on that gene.

I'm thinking that when one of my led strips fell down onto the plant it caused enough stress for it to turn hermie???

Yeah man I totally agree with you. I think the only way to get around the hermie issue is buying regular seeds that haven't came from a plant that pollinated itself? I might buy some East side MAC after this grow :bigjoint:

That wouldn't cause it to go hermie. People supercrop, top, defoliate, etc... and never have plants go hermie from it. I don't see how an LED strip falling on the plant would cause it.

It's bad genetics then dude, in house genetics gave me hermie seeds.
