Growing herms

Can any one give me any knowledge on when plants decide to go to herms,I know some times is it in their genectics but when does a female seed change its gender to a herm. Is it when it germinates, in veg or wrong temps or food during flower

its caused by genetics or stress. and you generally wouldnt be able to tell until flowering when u see nanners hidden among the female clusters

They don't decide to "go" herm, and it most certaintly isn't genetics. One way is the silver colloidal treatment of plants to make a fem seed, doesn't always work and can sometimes grow a herm. The only other way is to stress a plant out o the point it has no other options for survival, but to quickly make male and female parts and at least get some seed before it dies. But, the most common way is for light to get onto the plant during it's dark hours. It is NOT when it germinates, is subjected to wrong temps (as long as they aren't over 100), or when fed during flower (I really hope you are feeding your plant during flower lol or you aren't gonna get anything).

Genetic predisposition is the biggest factor IMO.

Thanks for your help guys i believe it must have been in the genetics 8 feminised armagedon 3 male and 5 hermies 190 notes down, thanks to pukka seeds

peace farmer your saying genetics have nothing to do with it ?........wow.

3/5 of my plants went Hermie on me from my first grow with mixed seed. I'm sure it was the heat just got way to hot in grow room over 95 some times.
