i would advise you to check for light leaks and make sure your timers are set correctly. it is rare that a plant will hermy that early in flower without some serious light stress.

I've had some bag seed, that seemed like the product of a Hermie itself form themthat fast. Only way I've seen it happen so quick though.

It's suppose to be an auto flower seed so light's just been on, it's worked in the past

I would. In my experience, if the seed came from a hermie, the plant the seed makes will become one as well. I've seen some people have better luck but not me.

24 hrs of light is a serious stress ALL plants need rest DARK time to use energy absorbed from lights 18hrs on 6hrs off has been the only way I grow my plants UNLESS I take clones I'll run 24hrs for two weeks for roots to take well then back to 18/6 it could be heat stress over feeding or over watering that could cause a hermaphrodite to happen all variables should be considered just make sure everything is in stable conditions hope it all works out and just a suggestion only use bag seeds as a test grow not a serious grow order some on line for good genetics

Unstable genetics.
Kill it. Not worth the hassle.

Do you have proof that all plants require dark time?
Most absolutes are absolutely wrong.

Agree. I have clones that I've been running under 24 since I took them and they are flourishing. Only time I do downtime in veg is if I'm trying to help with heat/energy use issues

Ya I do have proof that plants need dark time it's been published in over 100 different reads and even on I love marijuana. Com plants are living organisms just like humans that need rest and temperature shift between on and off times helps also with trike development I have a grow right now 26 days old and they are very nice better than recent grows I've seen from other people

I get the dark requirements as in i get that they make sense, but I've done about 5 auto grows now under 24 hour's light an its been working somewhat, ill admit a few plants foxtail and this is the second male ive had from babies, but its also produced some great dense buds that when dried and cured are top shelf type nugs. Perhaps I'll try giving my next round some darkness, it just requires me to have to do the same schedule on three sets of plants then. Would never wanna forget after working a long day and not switch the lights when im suppose to. I assume that would hermi all of them.

It's both......hermie jeane and autoflowers do not need darkness....
You can have lights on all the time and raise and lower them to ease any light stress.
I go from 20-40-60+-40-20 lux with my lighting dimmer daily. Temperatures shift just doing that.
As a matter of fact there are places in russia where they came from it never gets completely dark during that time of year.
This is how come they autoflower.....developed from lack of darkness.

You can pick up a auto timer that turns on and off for your lights I haven't manually turned on lights in 10 yrs lol just pick a time they come on in run from 630 a.m to 12:30 a.m 18 on 6 off its a good system that works well just work it out with your daily schedule to maximize your ability to care for them during on time I can put a 98% increase of your production by doing this

I completely understand the genetic composition of auto flowers and the process some people take in growing them and I've had many people I know that have switched from running 24hrs to 18/6 and they have had a 1/3 increase in the yield what I'm trying to say is that some people only use methods they are use to seeing other people use and they tend not to venture into the unknown you only learn by trial and error
