not been funny

ive been using this forum for a few months now? due to all my posts. i really like this site and want to stay. but
ive been asking the same qu for weeks now? and nobody can seem to answer it.
i had some plants 4 of one v. called venus
i seedbag plant called baby no1
in soil under400hps indoor
antway they all went hermie and had ,no bannanas of any kind as i cud see. or male sites on any of the plants.
so how did they all end up with seeds? i think i no why they went hermie due to bad liting but how i only noticed 6 wekk12/12. and i want to no so it never happenes again to my new girls. i no longer have there hermies but have some clones from them what i took while vegging should these clones be ok? any pics anyone of a self poll plant with no bannanas or balls. so wtf went on and how. please help?.dont want my 2nd and 3rd grow f...up too.i also got new seeds orange bud greenhouse and sk#11 and big bang g.h. all fem and every seed i did has germed. should i just start a freash or what i have 2 clones from baby1 1 and there 24days12/12

So, if i understand you correct you generally growing from fem seeds, right?

if so this is the case, you probably already have already the answer to your hermie problem: Bad fem seeds.
there is currently a thread going to this issue how to make fem seeds and what the problems are.
i figured for my self that we face one big problem on the market again we had years ago already or why i won't grow fem seeds at all, and this was bad parent generations used for producing fem seeds.
if this generation of parent plants isn't stabilized the seeds out of this are crap. but stabilizing takes time, and time is money and the dutch breeders don't want to spend any money but cash in fast, with the speed of light if you ask me, so they cut out this work and we suffer the results as buyers which get such junk seeds then for our big bucks.

well, if your first been clones, do you know the source of those very well? because if you did light poisoned them on purpus it must have been something else. since i can't recall to have heard the strain before it is maybe still so new that itself haven't been stabilized and this caused your trouble... i'm a bit puzzled right now...

I've heard that fem seeds have a tendancy to go hermie. From the sound of things you set yourself up for this. You bought fem seeds (which seem to have the tendancy to go hermie) and you said "poor lighting" which doesn't describe how it's poor. You have a 400w HPS so I'm guessing that you mean that you don't keep your light schedules strict and accurate.

Generally I have found that hermies are caused by light stress, genetics (fem seeds) or by flowering too long. If you wait too long to harvest most plants will start producing male flowers. That's how they get alot of the "femenized" seeds. They flower females until they produce male flowers, then sell you the seeds. So your feminized seeds are really just hermie seeds.

Start from the beginning using regular seeds, kill the males, take clones from your females and don't fuck with the light schedule. You have to be STRICT.

did your plant grow and not show signs of any sex just poped seed,s i havent seen that b4
a hermie should have signs of both sex,s i thought you need to look after fem seeds a lot more they become hermie easier tho if every thing is done right its easly stoped i think fem seeds come from hermie plants thats why it happens

i was also told it take 5 generations of your own seeds b4 they come good

my plants didnt have any balls or bannanas at all but i mite be wrong.so have i to kill em all and start again.i have clones that i too off the hermie after 7week,vegg .now these are 4week12/12 and i took clones from the clones too but they rooted about 2week ago. will these plants also be hermie? because the hermied plants started off as female clones. and turned hermie.7 week12/12 that when i noticed seeds.but what do i know only that no male or bannanas.
qu. will my 4week old plants that are 4week12/12 be hermie and if so how can i tell?.
also will the clones of the clones also be hermie?.
please tell me cos i feel like i mite be wasting my time with these so called girls???

What makes you think they are hermie if there,s no bud,s or ball,s were are the seeds coming from if theres no buds
if it is a hermie an you take clones they should turn hermie too
have you any pics of these its a bit confusing m8

i'm confused. your plants are hermies but no seeds or buds? got any pictures?


do you have light leaks?

they had loads of seeds and a bit of bud .i ment i never saw any male sites. balls or bannanas.on the plants.so how did they poll there self?

i think i f.up with lite sced. on my first grow i no why i think but how do 4 cloned girrls turn hermie? and end up with seeds when no male plant or anyother.and no male sites on the plants that i cud see.

I'm a bit confused like the rest of the commnunity but I think I know what you mean. I was once growing 2 afghan and a handful of ww under a 600 watt hps, the afghans had no pollen sacks but just didn't develop like they should. no seeds either just sparse, fluffy bud while the ww developed fine. I think it was just poor genetics.

maybe if u butcher the english language sum mor yur plants wudnt hate u.

Seriously though if you truly want help at least have the common courtesy to try and not look like a 13 year old junior high drop out. As for your question you either:

1) Failed to distinguish male pollen sacks intermingled with female buds. If this is your first grow Id bet good money this is what happened. Even if this is your 100th grow, knowing you used seeds from a hermie plant and didn't stick to a strict light schedule, I'd bet money this is still what happened.

2) You have someone in your area growing males and your ventilation system has allowed their pollen to get in.

3) You flowered too long. But if this were true there would only be a few immature seeds.

I doubt 2 or 3 are the case. If 1 is not the case then I guess you have an immaculate conception on your hands and should notify the Vatican because nobody here will be able to explain the impossible. Better luck next time.

Hey mang, all clones from a hermi plant will be a hermi, even if the clones were all taken before the mother "went hermie". Because all the clones are just other parts of the mother plant, ya know what I mean??

dog poopsmoke. wtf. i was stoned when i wrote that.
who are you my f.. school teacher. get f. dogpoop. or what ever you called.

this whole thread makes me laugh.

but if leaves pile on leaves of the plant... I have heard this even causes females to " hermie out "

something about how they can pollenate themselves... never had it happen to me but that is what i heard.

i had 4 plants.given to me ,by my dealer,all female clones.they were doing fine,then i put the 4 plants given to me by my d.into flower after 9week vegg.
i had these on 12/12 for 7 weeks of 12/12.then i noticed seeds all over every plant but the plants had never showed any male sites, just female so how did i end up with seeds, if no males around or male sites on the plants.and i know they went hermie.

and i didnt use seeds from a f.. hermie plant, i used female clones and my plants went hermie.

If there,s not male pollen sack,s and you have taking these as clones from a female and you got seeds in your buds you most of came in contact with a male some were and pollenated them
eather you got it from someone elses grow room that had a male there befour or you have brought someone to your growroom and they have had contect with males somewere
or you have had a male plant grown in your room from a previous grow .

just let them grow out id say you will have smokable buds still and if thats how they got pollenated just stright male to female cross the seed,s should be ok to if you wanted to use them

make sure you sort your grow room out for the next time if that pollen is there it can stay for years
