stress from transplant, intuupted light cycle and other factors can lead to males i think, or at least hermies. the only thing i can suggest is to order some feminized seeds. sory to hear about your bad luck, keep it simple and consistent

Yeah...stress. If you messed around with they light cycle too much that could have done it. What hour's of lighting are you doing?

i dont belive that you can do something that they will turn out to be males.its just like that.but if you have a female plant and stress her too much in vegge, then it would change to hermie(fucking with temps, lights)

Light leakage and hermi, I think yes. A possibility. Light leakage and all male, I dont think so. Just bad luck. In my opinion the first 3 weeks of a plants life is a strong determining factor, along with genetics, in what a plant will turn out to be. I have seen many female plants, both fem seed and not, go hermi because of stress. But in all the years I have grown I have NEVER seen a male turn hermi or female.

Veggin, from seed or clone? Seed I am guessing, but just want to be sure.
What type of light are you veggin with?
How are you germing?
See you are using a drip feed. How often do you feed?
Light and dark temps?
Ph your water?
Its all the little things that add up to big dank buds.

Heres my thought..are yoi]us using good seed from a breedr or bag seed? bag seed has hight endency for bad genetics but can be good at times but usually high male or hermie ratio so use good breeder gentics. Second those look stress how long have they been under that hps light? From seed you want 8 nodes before flowering or they can get light poisoning and stress which can help on set hermir or male traits. they look really small to be under hps light. Light leakage can be an issue also.What are the temps in the flower area with lights on? have fans moving the air constantly? Looks like a drip setup. how long and how many drips? what do you keep the ph at? Over water, underwater, wrong ph, immature plants, light leakage, and heat all together will for sure make this happen..
