Whats up everyone. I’m in the process of building and designing a new cab.
Long story short I always run feminized freebies in a new grow space first before breaking into my good genetics. I’ve got a OG x GDP lady three weeks into flower and she’s been getting hit with light during her dark cycle for the last two days from a PC fan controller that has two little LEDs on it that i didn’t get covered up. Apparently it was enough to cause stress because she has hermed on me and i just got done picking 20-30 balls off of her.
I’ve never had this happen before so I’m not sure what to do about it. I’ve fixed the problem and gotten rid of the controller so from here on out there won’t be light pollution during her dark cycle. Will she continue to flower from here on out normally now that the problem is fixed, or is it a situation of once they start throwing balls they will continue to do so?
I trying to decide between trashing her and starting over or just keep picking the balls off through the next 6-7 weeks that she has left for flowering? I do have some other plants that are in veg that I could put in her place if I wanted to trash her, but I am completely out of smoke and I’d like a harvest, not sure if it’s worth the battle to try to keep flowering her. Since this was environmental stress, and now the issue is fixed... I’m wondering if it would be fine to just let her keep going. It’s not like she just hermed in her own, it definitely was caused by the light pollution.
Here’s the controller that caused the problem, believe it or not those two little LEDs put off a surprising amount of light during lights out:
Here’s the girl right before the mess up and the light pollution:
