my question is, if you clone a hermie that just showed sex aprox 2 weeks into flower, would cloning and reveging result in another hermie in the next flower "season" or a female?
now here are my assumptions which led me to the conclusion it would be a female.
1) Hermie-ism is induced by stress, such as light poisoning, nute defficiencies etc.
2) a female plant will be a female from the begining. it is DNA determined
3) sex only shows during flowering
4) plants can be reveged and stimulates seasons.
thus if a plant is cloned as it is showing hermie traits, reveged, and given a better environment, and then induced into flowering once again by flipping 12/12 lights, it will not need to resort to the "emergency plan" as it did before, and will continue to be the wonderful female it has always wanted to be.
I ask this because i have an outdoor plant, and came outside one night to see that it grew into reach of light from a street light post. im afraid it would turn hermie, so i wana clone now but am afraid the hermie it *might* turn into is a permenant change.
-outdoor
-soil = MG with time release (no nute burnz)
-watered every other day with MG indoor plant food aprox NPK 9-9-9
pce. happy growin
