I started this op oct. 7. Got some decent looking bagseed. I got a 400w htg hps. I think I have 12 females right now but I am having some problems with hermie's. Used Peters all purpose for veg and MG Big Bloom for flowering. Water every two days and nute everythird watering. I am using one gallon containers. Average plant height is about 20 inches with my big ones reaching almost 28". So thats pretty much it for now let me know what you think and anybody that has expeirence with hermies get a hold of me....I NEED HELP.

They look good. You are getting hermies because your seeds probably came from hermie plants. Ya should kill the hermies or they will pollinate your good females and you will have seeds. Hermie seeds that is.

The seeds didn't come from hermie plants because it was bagseed but it wasn't like full of seeds so i know that's not it. I think maybe its stress, i dunno, any help appreciated.

I'm not argueing with you. If ya get a bud with a few seeds in it. The odds are high that they came from a hermie plant. Ya get a bud full of seeds the odds are they did not come from hermies.
If ya stress a plant that has the hermie gene it will turn hermie very easy.

The bottom line is if ya have a hermie plant. You want to take it out of the garden so ya dnt get seeds.

The odds are high that they are. Everybody pulls out the males. Most of the seeds that are in good bud are hermie seeds. Brick weed or regs that have a shit load of seeds in the weed are good seeds.

Ya should not have a hermie problem with those seeds. Not saying you will not but odds are way,way down.

Good luck with the grow.

You are on a roll. The thing is fem seeds come from hermie plants. Some times they go hermie. Watch for light leaks and make sure ya stay on 12x12.

They look great.
