Yeh, I was gonna buy some beans the other day and noticed they were all over the place on Herbies. Was curious but I think I will give them a miss...
I am so glad to hear the same thing I just experienced a few months ago; I still have 2 of their beans left and am afraid to try the rest. First of all, the one plant I did of the money maker was deformed as all get out .The leaf that came in was 3 sided and the second nodes from the top grew like an upside down xmas tree, I had to throw it out, I didn't want to take it any further. But the thing I have found after trying Herbies is the same,half of everything I grew were hermie's and I will never pollute my rooms like that again. The one's that didn't were really good, but I can't come up with the confidence to try any more. I did feel like a fool giving my money to them

Great looking plant! If it it didn't herm until the last week it wouldn't make beans would it? I grew it a year ago, huge arm length colas, no herms and pretty sticky but those seeds were probably from another batch. I spent a bunch of money on some fem girl scout cookies this year, planted 3, and all were male!

Thanks man I appreciate it. I ment 2 weeks I was stoned when I posted.... I'm not sure on how long it takes them to produce seeds. Every single calyx has a tiny little seed, about the size of the ball from a pen.

Well, I had to harvest the moneymakers. They were ready but I could have left them a little longer. The harvest is the best I have ever done for weight and appearance but I can't say it was because of the genetics. I made some major changes in my nutes and I added a 300w led to the 2x4ft tent along with my 400w hps. Man, that was really a lot of light and the plants loved it. I also trained them as an 8 head manifold. Trimming was super easy except for being so sticky. I just left the popcorn on the stems and will make oil out of it later.

This was one plant.

I ran it before. It was a bit leafy. Not too potent. Flavor and euphoria was good on one of the phenos. Hashy and berry. Looked like the pics above. Overall very easy to grow.

Hi, I know.. old topic etc but I just want to share experience.

I bought 5 seeds, all 5 germinated with no problem (put in water for 24hours after they sunk i use the paper-towel method until the root is about 2cm and then put them in jiffys)

very uniform growth, very fat round and very foxtailing headbud, the sidebuds are more of triangle/christmas tree shape. It stays very small but I dont veg it for long (2 weeks from germination). Done 2 runs now with all 5 plants and their first generation offsprings. I grow with amare se300 (315watts) and I get about 50g per plant when I put 4 of them under one light. Very reliable performing strain. I also got seeds from one but it didnt trouble me. I will grow them out outside this year.

If you can get your hands on the strain I recommend it, just to have it. I will keep it around for long, in a small corner somewhere in the back. Just saw yesterday the seeds are not available anymore and I am glad I got some. Dont know if they will come back.

Have a nice weekend

PS mine is not very leafy, easy to trim. But i dont do lst them i keep the natural form and defoliate while flowering bit by bit so at harvest most leaves are gone already

edit again: i dont understand what the people on this last page say about hermies, I dont see it that way and they dont pollute the grow room.. its not like they can make other plants turn seedy..
