Ok so i go upstairs to do some washing and i noticed that my grow room was open!.. during its dark cycle.
Turns out my mum "heard something" which was the fucking fan..so she opened the room and turned the fan off..(dont have a fucking clue why she wud interfeer!) anyway when i say i found it open i meen the top part of the zip was open and a little sunlight was getting it..
My mum had the room fully open for about 2 mins at least i guess..then coz she didnt shut it properly it was left oipen at the top for like maybe half an hour beforre i got to it.
whats the possibilitys of them goin hermie? Theyve only been in flowering for about 4 days.. Im so pissed off.
Some one please help.

don't be upset with mum after all its her house i take it just close it up and keep on growing maybe explain how critical the light cycles are on the grow keep her informed and this shouldn't happen again

like everyone said ur fine it takes more than that to hermie a plant, i've had my one girl not hermie even after i messed up the flowering photoperiod and temps and fert multiple times so i think some strains must be more resistant to it than others,lately i been thinking it must be a auto-flowering strain i have going.

I think it was open a little bit because she didnt shut it properly.. for about half an hour max..
i could see the plants so the plants could see me lol.
thye definately wernt gettin direct sunlight.. jus a lil light that was coming through the windows..the plants are in a proper grow room that zips up and everything so hope they dont get fucked up. il apolagize ta ma mum for screwin at her lol.
it was open like a foot.. jus the top of the door was flapping over..i just dont want the flowering to be delayed or to be wasting my time to grow hermies. Ive been goin at these plant for lie 2 months. its just ive seen post's where little red lights on power strips have hermied plants.

Your fine. There' not going to hermi because of an hour of light during the dark cycle. It will take way more then that to make them hermi. Just relax. Your fine. Just inform your mom how important it is to keep them dark when it's there dark period.
