Hermie solution - confirmed!

[HuntleyD827]

I have to agree with you, WH. If it was a problem going from 400 to 600, then why does everything else get so fat! He he
To update the WW/hermie saga, I'm still seeing a few hermies but they look different this time - all shriveled up, maybe even dead. Maybe the curse is broken. I've started to use a little more Penetrator with the Reverse. I have WW from three different sources now. Something's gotta work!

they look shrivled up? Interesting.....I've heard that if you do get male flowers they are supposed to be sterile....please let me know if you get seeds in your grow.

WH, I know people that panic at the first sight of a nanner, but in reality, when do they actually start producing pollen that could infect the other plants? I'd like to push it as long as I can but I am a bit concerned. Thanks.

Thats an excellent question that I have no idea of the answer to. STINKY!! I will work on trying to find out but I think it may be a matter of days. Don't quote me until I've had a chance to look around though.

I also started using this product thanks to Weedhound. When do you guys apply it? The directions say to spray on flowering plants and repeat in 10 days, so would you just do Day 1 and Day 10? Then again, it also says something like use in weeks 1 and three of flower, and week three would be Day 15 at least. I tossed out the bottle so I don't have what it says verbatim, but I could have sworn it mentioned two different application methods.

Last time, I just used it three days in weeks 1 and 3, usually MWF. Is this wrong? One bottle has been enough to do it my way. I also don't use the Penetrator although this is contrary to directions.

It worked last time, so hopefully I will have the same success again.

Deja the only way I know how to use it is on Day 1 and Da 10 of flower. I have sprayed it an extra time or two when I've stressed my plants out in one way or another but those times are definitely extra.

PS...When are you going to start flowering your latest plants Deja?

WH, after closer examination I discovered that the hermie problem this time was so slight I was tempted to just leave it alone. But there were a few, so rather than take a chance I went ahead and harvested one of the two. Unlike before, I was a tough call this time. The Reverse definitely helps, but it took 4 sprays this time. I might give the second one one more spray and let it go the full 56 days, which would be three more weeks. It's been a fun challenge but it's gotten tiresome. I'm moving on with the WW I have from two other sources. It's been a learning experience for sure.

i just pick up the "reverse" and "penetrator" from my local hydro hook up
one question tho.
do i just spray the leaves? or do i need to directly spray the nugs/seeds(I am 5 weeks into flower...so they are kind big)

thanks for the help

[hanayama]

scratch that question...found my answer.

heres a new one tho,
i was look at dutch master website. they have some pretty cool stuff.
if i wanted to start a foliar feed, what would be better? using the max fx and the folitech together(recommended on their website) or use the liquid light(cannot be used with the other ones.)

and would using either of those be ok in conjunction with fox farm liquid ferts and solubles?

thanks

[Weedhound]

Use Liquid Light with the penetrator....trust me....it's all you'll need for a foliar spray. :thumbsup:
