Please help with my hermie problem

Okay guys and gals, here is my situation.
I run a mother room under 2 x 600w BlackDog LED (18/6) at 75-77 degrees.
I run my bud room under 2 x 1000w HPS (12/12) at 75-77 degrees.

I just recently switched from flowering in coco pots to an RDWC system, and since the switch, it seems I am growing hermie after hermie. I cannot figure out why, but it is very depressing.

My mothers are grown in coco, I clone in an aeroponic system, Veg for a month in a bubbler then into the flower room they go.

Any ideas? I was thinking the light stress from going from LED to HPS, but I keep the HPS 5' above the canopy when I introduce new plants. They never seem to go into shock or stress. I just do not get it.

Thanks!

Well I try to avoid stressing my babies at all cost. You need to switch back to coco pots asap. You have suffered enough. I'm assuming your mothers are from regular seeds. Just like mom, the clones need the same treatment.

Yeah, all mothers are from regular seeds. I was thinking about going back to coco as well. I appreciate your advice! If anyone is near North FL, I will be selling an RDWC system soon.

My question is why are you trying to do every medium lol I'd go back to what your mom's are and keep it simple, obviously you know what your doing so why not just kill it in coco?

Aero has given me a 90% success rate cloning, where as rockwool was often murdering my babies. I am vegging in the bubbler now because going from there to the DWC buckets, in my mind, doesn't stress them as much as going from aero straight to RDWC in the flower room. RDWC was recommended by a friend of mine who had much better success. My moms are in coco because that is what I started with. It does seem I am all over the place, but that is just how it has all progressed. Yeah, I am definitely going to go back to the coco immediately. Thanks!

I wasn't trying to knock it really, it's deff nice to progress and learn everything (I know I couldn't do all that lol) just seemed you had a lot of seeds and should go bask to what's best for ya till ya figure the stressing situation out, imo

I didn't take it as a knock on it. This is the weirdest shit that has ever happened and the only thing that I changed was vegging in a bubbler instead of aero, then going to RDWC instead of coco. Has to be somewhere in that. Where is the like button on this forum?
