    I need clones

    Delta9 had some last week as well.
    fungus gnats look like fruit flies, fyi

    Apparently they were annoying enough that they put a 1" layer of sand at the top of the soil pots to prevent...something. I don't have any idea of growing/pest problems, and I hesitate to criticize broadway wellness. They are solid everywhere else.

    getting them is as easy as getting a bag of soil.......

    getting rid of them, not so much, although i don't think it's as bad as mites or powdery mildew.

    if sand doesn't cut them off, soil drench with water that's had a mosquito dunk marinating every three days. two gnats become three million pretty quickly.

    or, crush up Dunks [don't breathe the dust] and put 1/4 teaspon on the top of the soil in every pot in the building. It's a biological, so it won't hurt anything but those fkn gnats. Yellow sticky traps to keep tabs on progress... it takes a couple weeks because you are only killing the larvae.

    Mine came in Roots Organic.... sigh:cursing:

    to get back on point, the best genetics i've worked with came from nederland and/or attitude seeds.

    just my experience, but between OBM and GM, i've had some fire come out the garden!

    Sprinkle Diatomaceous Earth on top of soil or coco fiber about 1/2" thick then water bucket until it starts bleeding out bottom. This stuff slices up the gnat larvae that are eating the plants roots. Its like little razor blades. Then lay out a few sticky traps for the adults. works like a charm within days. coco fiber attracts these little pests! :thumbsup:

    Grateful Meds, have you grown all of the clones you sell all the way to flower to make sure they dont hermie. I have gotten 3 strains from different places around town that hermaphrodited towards the end. That is such a gut wrenching feeling to watch perfect organic fire start popping out bananas everywhere! It was not heat stress because I installed a minisplit the last go around and the same 3 strains hermied again. If you have solid proven genetics I want them please.

    if you are having that luck with hermies you should look for a something causing them stress.

    usually, light stress...

    could be a light on a power strip or other device, an alarm sensor, under the door... visit your plants just after the lights go out. sit there for a couple minutes in the dark, and see if you don't find some light.

    or, you just had some bad luck w/genetics. seems like allot of bad luck tho-

    There are a couple of small red lights on my C.A.P. controller but I seriously doubt it is putting off enough lumens to stress the plants. It was also the same 3 strains two cycles in a row. I had 12 strains going at once and these 3were the only 3 that hermied both times. I have a panda film curtain blocking light from door. Ive always heard if you take seeds from a hermaphroditic strain and grow them out the offspring seeds and clones will also go Lola.
    Pretty sure this is what happened. I guess 3 out of twelve is pretty shitty luck.

    my cap controller (newly purchased, a few months ago) has green lights...

    just a thought. I've tried a ton of clones in the last year, and never got a hermie - tho I did get 1 from seed.

    I picked up some seeds, and there were some feminized freebies thrown in, which I haven't popped yet. I've been thinking (worried) about what you are talking about, so I'm not negating the possibility... 30% seems high even for genetics.

    certainly different strains have different tollerences for different stresses, so all else being equal, I would expect herms to re-appear crop-to-crop due to the right conditions, as much as due to genetics.

    I am NO expert, LOL
