Yeah, I am thinking its a cumulative effect of all the stressors. Like, for example, someone who has too much stress in their life would be more prone to getting sick easier and more often. I think the blurple light is causing the general stress, and then any other small stress can push it over the edge.good on you to keep on lookin till you find the source of the problem. So many these days automatically say its the seeds, when it all actuality, its another reason as you found out. Not your fans and air on the plants, the light mix. NOT THE SEEDS, lol. Great job keeping an open mind and using your head to figure out the problem. jmho
FWIW, I can't hardly use my blurple on seedlings, Ive found out the hard way. Funny how no probs with cfls, or even HID's, but the blurple or whiter leds just affect them differently.
I do still also believe that certain seeds are more prone to hermy traits surfacing from stressors. Not all plants herm under blurples but it does seem to be a trigger. I am trying to figure out whatever triggers the herms and improve my grow area to prevent it.
If I could, I'd switch out the blurples immediately. But the furnace went out last week, so new lights are not in the immediate budget.
