Light leaks or environmental stress are probably the 2 biggest things ( along with unstable genetics) that will cause your female plants to turn to seed. As far as light leaks go, it doesnt take much to cause problems. Double check all that shit

Could be hermaphrodites. A single herm plant can seed all your crop. Always watch new genetics closely, daily checking the branches and buds for any sign of herm/male attributes. If you ever find a plant showing herm attributes, nanners, balls, put a trash bag over it, chop the stalk and throw it away. You might get lucky and not pollinate all your other plants if you catch it fast.

Also, my buddy had a fresh air intake system on his grow and even with a somewhat decent HEPA system he was having seeds in his weed, from outdoor grows. Crazy how fine that pollen is. He switched to co2 enriched sealed room with a bigger AC and hasn't had issues since.

I know there is no light coming in. you cant see your hand in front of your face. I've run 12 to 15 3 month runs and never had this happen. first time with a new distributer. fox farm soil and nuets like always. I even fogged the room 10x7 a couple weeks before I put the seedlings in there? these are loaded with seeds. will the seeds be any good or more of the same shit?

I've had male plants show up after flip but they get removed way before anything happens. I check my room every day. now as far as a hermie goes doesnt it show balls somewhere in there?

A true male will usually show balls well before the girls are mature- this is nature’s way to time the pollen to the flowers showing pistals-
Hermies usually show after flip-
But its nature so it is predictable but never 100%

I have used bag seeds from medical and also purchased from MSNL-
They should be fine- just be sure to temper them in the fridge for 30 days or more before you plant them-

Myself, I don't even risk it. Often they wont show up until late in the run and then your screwed. Just too unstable. Now, if I get a run where I come across only a couple of seeds, I've successfully run those.

Great Lakes Genetics, DC Seed Exchange are good seed banks and then buying direct from breeders like Cannaventure and others. Lots of folks like CSI Humbolt direct buys as he gives tons of freebies with his orders.

My indoor grow environment is far from perfect and I've always had light leaks.
Hell my LED lights actually leak when they're off, thanks to "smart plugs"!

Ever been around kids that were raised in a loud household?
They can sleep through anything.
Maybe plants are similar - way less annoyed by things that are familiar.

I've had trouble-free grows and I've had hermies -- both from the same environment.
The only thing that changed was the genetics.

Nope, the seeds would most likely turn out like the moms.
