What do you think, what will happen if the plants start to flower, and i set back the light to 18/6?

Im pretty sure Ive read about people flowering for two weeks, and switching back to 24 or 18/6 with no problems. I wouldnt do it though.

I feel jipped what is going on here is not exciting at all and just a bad idea why would you do that

It will go hermie if yu turn back the lights.... and if yu have female.. or two female.. they became hermie and will produce feminized seeds ;) the seeds are 100% female or 80%female.. put if yu got some maless there too, then they all hermie seeds 100%
but hermie seeds will never ever produce male plants ;)

Actually, I have heard people doing this to sex them, then switch them to veg so they can get bigger without any males, then once large enough, flower them again for real. It isn't a 100% recipe for a hermie.

just turn 12/12 one time under or over it, stress it... one day in circle 12/12 do the thing keep lights on a one day 12h30mins or more 13h then back 12/12... then it goes hermie.

All this hermie shit is killing me,weather its based on facts or just passed around i cant say but i know its not 100% true.

Before i went SOG i started from some kick ass bag seed,3 different strains,let them veg for a few weeks at 18/6 then flipped them over into 12/12 for 2 & 1/2 weeks to determine sex,tossed the males & put the remaining 36 females right back into 12/12,not one single hermie out of all 36 plants,28 of the 36 plants in that room have been harvested & the remaining 8 will be comming down in a few weeks,the others are taking longer because 6 are from a sativa dominant strain & 2 of the indica's are part of an on going experiment, all the other strains were indica dominant strains.

What happened when i first went to 12/12 was a growth spurt, that was to be expected,then after flipping back over to veg at 18/6 the growth spurt slowed to a crawl within a week or so & the plants started to bush out again,when i went back into flowering at 12/12 i got a 2nd growth spurt & no hermies,not one single hermie all the way through the flowering cycle.

I would say that i had way to many plants to have just got lucky with no hermies.
