Death to the Hermies.
Sacrifices must be made in order to ensure the harvest.
Unless for growing a seed farm, CUT IT DOWN RIGHT NOW!

Right but I just started 12/12 today. they were showing signs of sex while they were under 24/0, so i switched them over...im not 100% on all the sexes but im almost positive there is one male and one hermi. is it safe to wait a few more days to be sure?

I just harvested my plants from my second grow which were seven various bagseeds. I had no idea what a hermie looked like, so when one looked a little different I just thought it was the strain or some shit.:dunce::dunce::dunce::dunce::dunce::dunce:

The plant in the back corner of my grow room went hermie and all of my other six plants had seeds. The three furthest away only had a couple in the main cola and still turned out to be killer smoke, but the two that were the closest to it are full of fucking seeds. :spew:

So yes it will pollenate your entire crop and IMHO you should pull it out now and not get the dissapointing gut punch I just experienced. :cuss:

Yea i wasnt sure what it was at first, so i consulted my grow bible and it turns out 3 of 7 were male and 1 was hermi...needless to say they are all gone as of this point. I have had them under 12/12 now for 5 days and they all showed their sex by the 3-4day. I got 3 beautiful girls :mrgreen:

Just cut the male flowers out bro... do it right before the lights go off if there is a lot to cut. It will give them the night to recuperate... limiting stress.

I was wondering if i could do that cause the hermi was mostly female...unfortunitly i got rid of it and the other males a few days ago.
