flowering

[Assault]

i keep reading that you can flower at any time.

but i also heard that it causes hermies?

anyone have any info on this subject

there are multiple ways to get hermies the biggest one is not keeping your dark cycle dark enough so if your not doin that then the chance is really low
its a plant and will react with its enviroment whenever you switch to 12/12 it will flower

yep - from what i've heard, interrupting the dark period during 12/12 is the surest way to get hermies.

and while you can start flowering anytime, it is better to let your plants establish themselves a bit first - like 12" tall or so ... but you plan on doing SoG don't you? i've never done a SoG grow so can't help you there.

you can flower them from germination.

you can flower them from germination.

You mean from a clone? I have not read about any successes with flowering from seed. Please let me know if you have, and what the yield was. (an 1/8?? haha)

someone (chicago maybe?) was doing an experiment where he started a seed on 12/12. It did grow but i'm not sure if it ever got to harvest.

I haven't personally had success with it, nor have I tried, but there is a thread somewhere with someone who did/is doing it.
