That answers the question of whether a few small holes in ones tent cause them. That is the age old argument re herms and light- The moon is bright with reflected light - very blue and silvery, yet some people swear light leaks cause herms.

Military Grade Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Bugbee says it has to be bright enough to be able to read a book to cause any concerns. Tho my bedroom light lights up my room better than the moon lights up outside Edited August 4, 2023 by Military Grade 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakapple Posted August 4, 2023 Author Share Posted August 4, 2023 @Military Grade It's just so mystifying..I wish the plants could talk. Checked the darkness - literally so dark it was disorienting. Timer also looks to be correct. Going to put in a {probably too big} vegged Gorilla Zkittlez {they do like to use their zeds at Barneys}... @cypo74 Am living dangerously- gonna risk it ! It will probably herm on me, but what else can I do but to try again.. Other Members have overcome issues- If this can teach me something, it will be worth it. A plant can be very humbling. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazeytones Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Running a cross of two hermie prone strains that a plant has already hermied on you seems a bit mad to me. I'd personally cut my losses, get yourself subbed up and get growing some subbie beans rather than wasting time. Don't forget what a gorilla likes to eat... you'll have bananas in there before you know it. Good luck if you do go for it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But seriously - That's just superstition. {Saw a national Geographic article where farmers in India growing certain crops made offerings to Gods- and they got great yields} I will try extra heat to see if that makes the remainder any happier.

But I have grown Barneys {EEK} GZ before with good results in the past {in that same tent} - no one else to go in at the moment - GZ The most herm~ monster ish of all. Anyone want to take bets on when balls will appear? Seriously - should I risk the GZ or not? What would you do.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazeytones Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Have you got any other seeds, less hermie prone, you could try along with the gorilla? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have two youngsters {Strawberry lemonade, Barneys} and two young 'Mimozz' {Perfect tree} and a slightly older Peyote Critical, but all two small to go in But if you think the GZ is too risky, I won't risk it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazeytones Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 It's all a risk this game if I'm honest, you just want to make sure your taking that risk for the best possible outcome. Have you subbed yet? It's about your best bet for decent genetics at a great price. I just finished one of @ratdog ssddxkillerskunkxsmile and it's a belter, even with a few fuck ups along the way on my part. Electric costs the same no matter what your growing so might aswell make it worth while. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oakapple Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 @Hazeytones..I went to sub..and the payment means I have to send cash in an envelope- Postal order was another option, but not bought one of those in decades. I couldn't see a list of seeds to buy, though- but that could be just me being not very tech savvy. I am on laptop now, not phone, so might be easier to take a look. @ratdog I didn't know you breed seeds?.. I do too but not purposefully. Ironically a friend grew out a hermie produced seed, and it was not a hermie {so he says}. but I'm not going there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazeytones Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 You can do a bank transfer. Just go to the announcement section and the current free seeds list will be there. Your more tech savvy than me, I still can't upload photos, but I'm just on my phone, don't have a laptop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
