    The Myth About Light Leaks

    Just keep in mind, herming is a survival instinct, and stress induces this act of nature because the plant is not responding as it normally would if you planted your grow outside. And the main difference between the two is, lights. Like I said in my initial statement, I grew a seed in my closet...

    The Myth About Light Leaks

    Any female MJ plant can herm because it's a survival instinct. Some more likely, but how they got there is anybody's guess. But think about it, how do you get a guaranteed strain and female seed? By forcing the female plant to produce pollen sacks and spreading that pollen on your buds to...

    The Myth About Light Leaks

    99% of the people reading this probably don't know what exactly this means when it comes to "Light Leaks", including me. Like I stated, light from my kitchen window tagged my outdoors plants every night while they were flowering, with no herm effect. And my indoor grow, which didn't have one...

    The Myth About Light Leaks

    Excellent! You've proven my point! I totally believe that the "Light Leak" theory is bogus unless it's overkill, like leaving the door wide open to another room full of light. That would in turn become a stressful event.

    The Myth About Light Leaks

    You're correct. Again, the stress factor.

    The Myth About Light Leaks

    It can be, but my main point is the difference between indoor and outdoor. I've tested this, tried and true. I almost always top my plants, no matter where I'm growing.

    The Myth About Light Leaks

    IMO, genetics does play a role when it comes to how bad a plant will herm. I've grown several strains and some are ball happy. lol But like I said, that first grow I did was herm city, but when grown outdoors, no problem. And, those 4 indoor plants were in a very tight grow space, which caused...

    The Myth About Light Leaks

    I've read countless threads and comments about why an MJ plant will Herm. When I first started growing 11 years ago my first indoor grow went Herm wild on me. All 4 plants produced balls and seeds and I came here to find answers. The conclusion? Find those damn light leaks!! So I go on a...

    Flush or wait another week to start?

    As many other experienced growers have said on this forum, flushing is for toilets. IMO, this is an unnecessary chore that does nothing to the finished product.

    20/4 vegetative light cycle

    This thread derailed because people didn't read the original question from the one who started this.

    Until flowering if you're growing a non-auto-flowering strain.

    20/4 vegetative light cycle

    I live in Washington State, where the long summer days are different than where I grew up in California. All of my grower friends down there wonder how my MJ plants thrive and do so well up here. I tell them, It's all about the light. Because of our longer days, the veg stage is greater, which...

    20/4 vegetative light cycle

    I lived there for 4 years. So strange not seeing the stars during the summer, catching salmon down at the river at midnight. Not only are the vegetable records made there, everything is big, including the animals and fish.

    20/4 vegetative light cycle

    Interesting thread. Keep in mind, the person who started this thread was growing a non-auto-flowering plant and the 24/7 light question was based upon the "Veg" stage. Auto-flowering plants can stay under a 24/7 light schedule and be fine. So can a non-auto-flowering plant, only, in the "Veg"...

    What should I do??

    Next time, simplify your grow. There are so many voodoo opinions out there about growing MJ that it can get downright confusing. I've been in this game for 11 years, growing indoor and outdoor MJ plants, with fantastic success. First, your water. I used to check the PH in my water until there's...
