hermies

i am new to this all and i heard males are bad i am stilll confused so i thought if its a male and a female it may be bad as well.

yes a hermie is bad, you need to learn the basics of growing so buy a book or if you cant be bothered go to this adress www.overgrow.com/growfaq, after you've done this you will have a good knowledge of growing, then come to this site again and you will get a lot of help. Although overgrow is good, a book is best as it tells everything in a good order and gives you a basic understanding of growing, a good book is cannabis grow bible by greg green

There are several ways. You watch the plant very closely and if you see male pods you pick them off careful not to pop them. I have a small vacuum I have used to suck them off when I cut them so if they pop the pollen gets sucked into the vacuum and no problem.

Dutch Masters has a product called feminize that will stop a hermie from turning. It's a good idea to have some on hand just incase it happens.

Hermies are not the end of the world. There is no good reason to trash hermies if you treat them right you can still get a good crop from one. You just need to watch your plants and take care of them.

Are you saying we don't have any quality information here for people to learn?

My problem with OG is all the crap, lies, and inaccurate information posted with good information most people get lost there and end up getting worthless information.

But take your chance.

there is a lot of information here but you will learn more if you read a book, there are more grow FAQs on overgrow and I found it very useful. The information provided here is of a high quality but there isnt enough of it for a beginer to learn how to grow from scratch
No disrespect to the site intended

Dear Zandor , thanks for ur info about to control hermies , btw where i can get some of that dutch master product , and don't worry about what people say about the site , here you can find and learn everything from seeds to smoke , so once againg thanks again :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

here here, this site is the dogs bollocks the mods have it sorted and the help to newbies is second to none, the postman.

Yes you can find just about everything in this website!!!!! Just do some work and search the forums

The search function is great and there are many good growers on this site to learn from. There were a few cats on power trips on OG but most of the info and people were top notch in my book

Just pick the balls off as they form, be careful not to open them up otherwise you could turn your crop into seed. You loose some of the yeild, but its still worth growing.
