i'll kill here soon, way before he'll flower... i plan on growing outdoors anyways and wanted to see how harsh the conditions really are out here. so i'll give him maby a month.
what's the deal with nanners and hermi's, is it being paranoid or does it happen that often? i read a lot about people being worried and checking constantly. the few plants i stress, i'd beable to check everyday, but one room i have is dam near wall to wall with cin 99 in hydro. it would take 3-4 hours to take them out and check them, which i'm doing tonight to spray for mite prevention.
so what i'm picking up is that hermies happen from bad genes and over stressing. what does cutting most of the fan leaves off in the last week do? how about in the last two weeks? well i heard about people doing it and so i did it, it started off because my 8 weekers got mites, so i started removing them and the infected leaf. read a little more about it and decided to do the other 4. then a wild hair, i did a Northern Lights that was lst'd, leaving only a few leaves on it and it's on day 48.
i enjoy experimentation and feel strongly that without it lays the groung work for rumors. what causes hermi's and i'll try it on one or two plants. i have some in all phases, clone, veg, day 14 flower, day 48 flower, day 59 flower.
let's get to the bottom of this, i don't want to feel scared about stressing my plant to help it produce more quality smoke.
