I have looked and done all the possible research I can about females turning hermi but all I have read and watched is the same half dozen causes (all of which I am doing right). Been growing for a few years now with 5-6 grows and maybe a dozen plants.
So my issue is 9 of the 12 plants I have grown hermi a couple weeks into flower. Until this last current grow I used to just get the sacks at the bottom of the flower, but now my one plant is 5 wks in and I'm noticing a lot of nanners. Buds are happy/healthy as can be and dripping with oil...but it's producing seeds.
Here is a breakdown of my current grow. Tried not to leave anything out.
- Dutch passion shaman and Dinafem Critical +. Both seeds came from Seedsman and the Shaman came in the original sealed Dutch Passion branded pack. So my genetics should not be an issue. All good quality.
- I am in the states (midwestern region). Growing in clean, insect and mould free basement.
- Temp stays at between 72-75 degrees F. Humidity fluctuates between 25-32%. I know humidity is lower than it should be but plants are thriving and don't mind the low hum.
- Tent - 24x24x53"
- x1 - Viparspectra 300w LED - ZERO light burn.
- 6" Inline duct fan pulling air in...then same sucking air out. Only thing is, I leave the air in fan on and the air out fan off. If I have both on, temp drops to 60's.
- 6" Clip-on fan to circulate airflow and keep plants
- Soil - Fox Farm Ocean Forest
- Two plants in one 7 gallon pot.
- Doing 'Lucas Formula' nutrient feeding. During flower, plants get 2 gallons water at Ph 5.85-5.90 every 4(ish) days with 16mls General Hydroponics Grow and 32mls Bloom. ZERO DEFICIENCIES DETECTED. Leaves could not look healthier. Watering is also on point. All leaves are pointed up towards the light and no tip curl.
- During veg I top multiple times but only did a session of 5-12 tops once a week so plants had time to recover from stress. Also lollipopped for SCROG.
- SCROG net begins 10" above the top of soil bed. Then a 2nd level of netting about 4" above the first.
- Veg'd for 51 days with a 20/4 light schedule. Currently been in flower for 36 days. Guessing I will harvest around the 9wk mark.
** ANY INSITE OR RECOMMENDATIONS ON MY HERMI ISSUE WOULD BE REALLY APPRECIATED!!!
