Let's talk Hermie-prone strains!!!

I'm hoping some people will share their experience with getting stress-caused hermies.

I understand some strains have more a tendency to hermie than others from things such as interrupted photoperiod and even FIM'ing or topping. I think this could be a pretty helpful thread as I've had trouble finding this information.

For example, I've heard Sour Diesel is extremely sensitive to light leaks and will hermie easy if there is a light leak.

What other strains have a tendencey to hermie and what specific stress encourages it?

Some strains I'm definitely interested in hearing about:

Mr Nice
LA Confidential
White Widow
Grandaddy Purple Kush
Sour Diesel
Headband

I had a Sour Diesel hermie. Started in week 8, popping a few bananas. The other strains were fine and I somewhat expected this because the plants had to endure a move mid flower and I had heard of the easy hermie SD. For a few days I picked them off before deciding to just chop a bit early. Other than Sour Diesel I don't know.

I am an outdoor grower, been growing here for 8 years - never had a hermie yet from a fair variety of strains.

alot of people don't know the difference between a hermie and a plant throwing out a few bannans.
