Normally I would agree, that's the way I do it. But if his plants like his current method why change things up?

The two of elephant girl are a little older but the next pic should give you a good idea of the relative sizes, and there's also a pic of one of the plants that I'm sure is a cross of a mother which was itself a cross of an auto and a photo. One of those quick/early strains.

Well, the girl with 3 leaves on alternating nodes now has 3 buds on alternating nodes. I'm pretty lazy about taking pics, but I just took these And elephant girl is spazzing out, hard to believe they're sisters

Even cheap Chinese blurples are available with IR and UV LEDs. Yes, IR and UV LEDs do exist, but up until China got involved they were too expensive to be used for anything but military purposes.

Well, your plants look none the worse for it. Keep doing whatever works.

Yeah, but there are different phenos, and leaf width can vary greatly on the same plant. The master kush I grew had some leaves about 4 cm wide. They were the fattest leaves I've ever seen on a pot plant. Of course they were also the first five finger leaves on them.

Well, they don't look underwatered, so I would say you're good. How do you decide when they need water?

Spiders don't eat plants, they eat the things eating your plants.

I can't tell what it is, but it looks a lot like the ones those researchers in Toronto are using to study how light spectra influence the uptake of nutrients in food crops. They're hoping to repurpose warehouses to grow crops indoors, especially in cold or otherwise unsuitable environments, or...

I fully believe it was an indica. The leaves it had indoors showed that perfectly. I just don't fully trust some of the breeders out there. As far as leaves getting thin due to stress, I see it as adaptation to local conditions. I suppose you could call it stress, however "stress" implies...

That's an interesting thought. My plant in the ground this summer was a Bakerstreet, which if you believe the breeder is a Hindu Kush landrace. It started indoors with the second fattest leaves I've ever grown, but as she got bigger outdoors and temps got above 30 C the leaflets got a lot...

Since this is still, barely, on the subject the op posted about, I have always said that if I had hermie plants (that I hadn't deliberately caused) then I would pluck off the anthers (nanners) or male flowers as they appeared or as I noticed them. If I have a separate space as I do now, I...

A steam cleaner for any carpets, and if you wash absolutely everything washable with a scented cleaner, that scent should be strong enough to mask any residual scent, at least for a while. I don't know if it would come back after that, like cigarette odours can, all I have washed that had weed...

What's the grow medium? If you're in good soil you shouldn't need to feed it yet. Coco or peat would be a different story.

Pollen does not cause herms, herms drop pollen. Herms caused by age is a process called rhodelization. Your plants would have to be past the end of the flowering cycle for that to be an issue, so I think you can discount that. If you had seeds on any of your plants, there was pollen. You had...

Or some reflective mylar, it's pretty cheap on amazon. Or both just to help prevent light leaks.

No pollen = no seeds. If you have seeds it's coming from somewhere, and there are pollen sacs in the first and last pics of the first set you uploaded, so I hope you got the only herms out. Good luck, just be aware that there may be a bit of pollen hanging out in your grow room now.

If you're not sure what you like, harvest in stages. That said if the weed you took off the plant is already the way you like it, it's harvest time.

That is the exact opposite of what I said. Hermies pollinate plants. Seeded plants that aren't hermies can't. If you can't find pollen sacs or nanners on the seeded plant then getting rid of it wouldn't solve your problem. If you are finding pollen sacs on it, then getting rid of it can help you...

Plucking seeds would be a waste of time, it's nanners or balls you should be looking for. Seeds are caused by hermies, not the other way around.
