I don't know about the hermie thing - I thought that was just from too much light during the dark period or other serious plant stress
The tendency toward hermaphroditism is also genetic, independent of environmental factors. As ever, genetics give you the parameters of the possible (genotype), and environment the reality of the result (phenotype). And I think some forms of training are pretty stressful for the plants.
