Did what I say make any sense.....? :stoned:
I guess I'm waiting for all the bananas to magically disappear. :)
thanks for the info everyone.... i grew out another bag seed and just cut it down yesterday at week 12. it was a sativa for sure, and was starting to throw nanners but only a couple seeds. i guess thats the way it goes with bagseed, seeing as it was one of only a couple seeds i found on the pot.
i may try this product, but i dunno. i ordered nl#5, blue mountain jamaican and california orange from VSB as an early christmas present to myself. hopefully the genetics are good as i've never had a hermie before the aforementioned one.
Huntley,
It won't make them disappear.....only prevent new ones from growing....:(. You are actually supposed to use it on day 1 and day 10 of flower then your females WON'T hermie. Any nanners already on your plant are there to stay......sorry. :cool:
I hear they have this surgery out called Nannerplasty....I'm not sure but I think it involves removal of the 'manhood':wtf:Quote:

Weedhound,
I never had this problem before I started buying seeds. White Widow seems to be the worst. Bought from a different place this time. Don't know why the other continues to go hermie, though. Conditions are optimal. Second batch of clones from the same WW look much healthier and were easier to root than the first so maybe things will improve. I'm also going to spray on day 1 and 10 with the Reverse. I ordered a product called "Le Femme Sex Change Hormone" from a place in Australia. Maybe you've heard of it.
Afraid that's a new one on me. The absolutely 100% most common reason I have found is light leaks. A good light leak will LAUGH at your Reverse and hermie your plant anyway. For me, most other kinds of stress do NOT seem to break through the Reverse and here is a (partial) list of things I have done to my plants during flower.....with NONE going hermie.
Undernute, overnute, broken branches, burned them with molassas, burned them with fungus spray, over pruned, abnormal ph (both ways), water too cold, left the pump off and anything up to about 2 screw ups with the lighting.....NO hermies.
I think you have a light leak. ;)
Weedhound,
Hermies abound so I think it's time to clean things up and start over. It won't be a total loss though. Oddly enough some plants weren't effected at all, some only slightly. A lot got tossed. I'm starting to wonder if I might be giving them too much light. This all started a few months ago when I went to 600s for 12/12 stage. I assumed it was a coincidence. They're vented well so it can't be heat. Perhaps instead of just starting over I should think about backing up. Maybe dust off those 400s I still have.
I can't believe going to a six hundred from a 400 will do that.....I'm thinking that there is light leaking in somewhere during your dark period. A good rule that I was taught was that if ANYWHERE in your grow section you can see your hand in front of your face its not dark enough. Do you have anything glowing like reset buttons on your surge protecter etc etc....? What seems very small to you could seem like a LOT of light to your plants.
I have 2 600s in a closet that's about 4'x6'. Hoods are up high and vented well but that's still a LOT of light for such a small space. As for leakage problem, I found a 4 pack of blackout curtains, about 40"x84", for $68 plus shipping. If nothing changes at least I'll have eliminated the main suspect.
