light isn't always the cause, but so many times I've heard of timer fuck ups causing hermies, and it's happened to me. ymmv

Timer "F" ups? thusly leaving the HID ON for an extended period, or interrupting the "dark" period for 5 plus minuets at random intervals?

Yes that's gonna mess your plants up,


but some HID light bleeding thru the slight gap under the bottom of a door while your plants sit on a table 2-3' up off the floor isn't going to do anything.
canniwhatsis Reviewed by canniwhatsis on . HOW DID IT HAPPEN? I have a hermi and trying to figure out how it happened has been driving me crazy! The plant was about 6 months old when I decided to flower her and I had to chop 14-15 inches off the top to fit it into my tent, also I kept her "it" in the same 5 gallon planters pot that I originally planted "it" in. I was told about 2 weeks into flowering that I should have re-poted "it" into fresh soil! could that have done it, being in the same pot and soil for that long? or a bad seed to begin with?? Rating: 5
