Hermies

[Marty420]

One of my plants hermits on me and I’ve got hundreds of seeds. Is it worth trying to grow then or will it be a waste of time?

How did the plant hermie on you...do you know?

Did it hermie or throw nanners?

Big difference with different answers

 

[go go kid]

are you saying a plant that throws nanas is less likely to form viable seed or do both

A lot of the time the pollen from nanners is sterile.

 

[kovidkough]

pollen sacks will always lead to more pollen sacks. nanners can be avoided without any stress but they are finicky and not worth it imho, im dealing with this now ill have several hundred ethos seeds , one would think id be happy but they waited til day 30 to appear. grr

I'm just tossing it all into the trash and switching breeders, lesson learned

seeds not buds


a dirt bag would start a breeding company

I chopped a Sunset Sherbert at day 28 once since I saw nanners and it was one of my wifes favorites. Sunset Sherbert does grow buds pretty quick though. Seems like a waste to just toss it.

Throw them in that shitty neighbors yard then call the cops on them down the road

I'm torn because they are so frosty it will be worth the effort to dig thru them. just not sensible to trash it after waiting this long. gotta do a hard reset the other 3 are probably preggers at week 3 those might get hacked and ill just drop some seeds for new years, this time I did more investigating and im switching to barneys farm, expert seeds, sweet seeds and seedsman in-house which ive heard mixed results from. in the end I believe its usually user error when we get here's however its also genetics so it can send a grower mentally spinning trying to figure is this them or me

Ya, certain strains are more prone to it than others. GSC and Chems are a couple that are more prone to hermies. My Green Crack hasn't hermied once. You can beat the hell out of that plant.

who's the breeder ?

Nah I'm saying a plant that threw nanners is less likely to have hermie traits.

 

[PadawanWarrior]

Mine's the clone only version. The story says: Originally it was grown by one of Snoop Dogg's growers. Snoop was actually the one who gave it it's name. He said "This is like some green crack", or something, and the name stuck. So, it's been passed around for the last 30 years, and I was able to get a cut a couple years ago. I just hope I can keep her going.

i herd it the method used to hermie the plant when it comes to femed seeds, some do it the proper way with silver solution (coloidial silver of a certain partical size) and those who stress to get the hermie.
but i remember when nirvana had a flowering room maDE Up of bed sheetspegged together and useing a fan to blow pollen from the male and he was getting all kinds of wierd crosses. so it could be

thanx thats a bit of important all potentia breeders should know, wether it a single branch seeded like mine or a breeder should know

I think the general consensus is nanners are environmental more often then genetic and pollen sacks are truly a hermaphrodite , however the triggers that cause a fem to grow staminates seems debated

think of cs as low stress environmental , its possible this effect won't become genetic since its an environmental effect instead of genetics, does that makes sense ?

 

[go go kid]

shit, i remember that from my ed rosethal breeders book. my head cant remember things so good since the accsident

yes thanx

my msnl gg4 got nanners and I believe that was purely genetic aswell, since the original line was prone to this, wish I knew that before getting a ten pack, however this also shows I gotta tighten up ship abit to avoid the stressors causing them to begin with
