Hermie solution - confirmed!

And of course the best surfactant is made Dutch Master and is called Penetrator.

So, is does or does not work later in flower?

I am curious if I should spray the ladies with Reverse... found a few hermies outta the bunch over the last few days. Ripped them hoes straight out but I wanna treat my ladies nicely. =)

Hi Weedhound, how have you been? I assume by now you have been enjoying WW. Things are great here. No hermies or other problems to speak of. The only thing out of the ordinary is the fact I'm harvesting my WW in less than 45 days! Have you ever heard of this? It's crazy! I don't know where they get the 55 to 60 days til harvest. I wonder what's causing this accelerated growth. Any ideas?

Thanks for all the info on hermaphrodite plants!! I started one crop from seed last year, ditched all the males and thought I had 4 lovely females, only to find that all of them hermied I'm guessing, from all the posts I've read, that I've got a light leak because my climate, nutrients and water temp have all been good. I've heard you can enter your room using a green light...true or not true? Anyway, with regards to the reverse...could this have prevented the hermies and created some reliable females? I'm thinking of trying again and am wondering if I should use the reverse as a preventative measure to hopefully produce strong females to clone from....any suggestions? Also, do you have to use the penetrate with it?

[Weedhound]

I believe it has to be an LED green light.....not just any old green lighting.

Huntley, missed that last question completely....sorry......I had some Master Kush that kicked out 4 oz by day 44......the second plant in the same setup went to something like 55 days and gave me 7 oz. Once in awhile you get a speed demon or two.

And phill.......yes, use the penetrator for the best results.

I got a plant that started to Hermie about 4 days ago, I ordered Reverse and it just came today. I was about to spray it on my plant when I read to add the "penetrator", I've been reading and learnt it was to increase osmosis on the leaves... Well I didn't order and penetrator because I didn't even know about it, so I'm wondering if its absolutely needed? Or will I be okay with JUST the Reverse and no Penetrator?

I think you'll need Penetrator too.. With Penetrator, I believe the ratio is 1:4 with Reverse. Also, the way to apply Reverse (according to the directions.. ) is: when you first flip to 12/12, and a second application 10 days later. Not sure how successful you'll be but good luck!!

Peace,
