I'm reading a book now; The Cannabis Grow Bible and in several chapters the author emphatically asserts that forcing flowering on a plant prior to its displaying pre-flowering traits causes a crisis condition in the plant which will likely cause the hermaphroditic condition. It is strongly recommended not to do this.
Makes sense to me except that I have read from other sources that CFLs are poor at penetration and that plants should not be allowed to grow larger than 14in during vegatation because the CFLs cannot accurately reconcile the needs of the plant for light and the amount of lumen penetration the CFL can generate.
If one isn't working with clones (seeds) how often are you getting herms or seeing sexual dysfunction in your grows with CFLs and are you all forcing the plant to flower prior to pre-flowering?
