kushluvr it seems like we're growing two entirely different strains.........:)
Here's my 2 keeper pheno's of LAD
These are harvest pics from the original seed run,They'll only get more dialed in the future clone runs........
These girls are beasts in my garden and I find they are far easier to grow than some of the OG's I run.......
Can you explain to me why you found the LAD to be so finicky?

Ah thanks for that... here are my 2 pics from the 1st post. Maybe i will look into checking that (again though have been running the 1kw for years no problems) - i do have pretty decent airflow around my plants - would this help keep leaf temps down or does that not really affect this kinda heat? (also could rest my nuts on my 1kw glass its that cool)
Unfortunately RH is one of the things im not maintaining atm pretty much sits about 20% nowadays (was about 40% during veg from memory), for veg i do a bit of foliar misting if the RH is too low but cant say i have ever had RH issues in veg or flower yet (not to discount it though)
Pic 1 is example of all the hermies i had by week 1, pic 2 is the one i thought was female but self pollinated to the max with a few external nanners but i suspect majority are inside the buds (thankfully)

those nubs didnt come through till week 1 flower, by same time all tops were covered with white pistils as well just didnt take a pic of that, i kept flowering for a week after seeing those nubs because another breeder recommended just plucking them off which i did however more sprouted along with more female calyxes all over the plants.am i trippin or is picture number one a picture of a male?

Im not going to waste anymore time on this thread ........
....im on hermie paranoia first week damn
That's better dude. Yeah you definitely do want to control the RH either way. Plants don't like too much of a swing either (though they prefer it DOES swing some say a range of about 10% up or down, preferabbly 5% up and 5% down from whatever the optimal level is for each strain).
The do prefer a change because that's how it is in nature--they don't want to ALWAYS transpire and they certainly don't want to always do it at the same rate--but they want to be close.
The weather is not good enough, you need at the very least a meter--and preferably a digital controller.
lol, im a stoned dumbass, just remembered i have RH digi meters that i use for my curing jars.
Just checked my tent and my cold air intake is ~57% RH @ 74f .... rest of tent is 65% RH @ 76f
that seems pretty good actually?
What other handles you got bud cuz this one says how many days old and to throw up a thread hermie prone and you use those wack pics and details that really are just details but the bold is hermie prone and that details sticks out and your stirring up shit where i usually would care less but for some reason i read this whole thread which i regret even this post but fuck it when monkey wrench Titles already break the ice why not just let the shit hit the fan im glad im not a breeder because i would have to read shit like this but really after thinking of this whole thread i should have kept my .02 to myself but damn if that hermie monkeywrenching mechanism doesnt get me everytime.....Wow helpful post, as you seem to be having a dig at my growing ability which for the better part of a decade i have NEVER had hermie issues like this and i have run shit ton of strains, also a variety of systems to find the one that suits my location best.
Fact of the matter is, even if there are a few minor things which could be adjusted with my environment, that i have run maybe 20 different strains through this exact setup and NEVER had this issue before.
Please forgive me for thinking that there might be something to mention when 9 different strains in the exact same environment are still healthy, unstressed and straight up sexy girls... and only 1 strain - being LAD - has hermied all over the joint. Yes i will admit that maybe my feed and RH needs tweaking (Thanks squig) but they are really minor adjustments imo.
If my grow skill / setup was so tragic like you seem to be implying im sure i would have pulled a lot more hermies out of my garden out of the many many crops ive harvested.
i remember the first hermie i ever got which was GHS fem seeds, which funnily enough i had better results with those in 95f+ temps, unchecked PH, unchecked EC shit kicker DWC system which i dont think i even flushed more than a few times during the grow... needless to say when i got 1 hermie out of 2 girls i wasnt overly surprised.
now regardless of picking the shit out of my setup / skill - try and imagine that many years later, many lb's harvested, the odd hermie cut down, much fire smoked... i get my first rampant hermie issue with only 1 strain, in an environment which has been yielding perfectly for years.
i will be the first to admit my own mistakes i have no issue with that, but please dont bash my thread or imply that i am stupid, i do find that offensive.
Much better. The question is, how stable is this--and can we be sure it wasn't a problem when the herms happened?
You really need to reign in this issue. I recommend a hygrometer/thermometer that has a remote "probe" that will allow you to view your RH/Temp without entering the room.
For instance, I'm sitting here at my computer and I can tell you that my bloom room is at 74F and 65% RH, whereas my veg tent is at 77F and 75% RH. Whereas the room I'm actually in is 78.6F and 20%RH (because it's winter and I don't humidify my room :p--this is where I got the comparison from earlier)

p.s. i hope you didnt clone any of those phenos and grow the way you grow im not bashing it ill just bash the decision to start this thread and bash my own decision to respond too it just venting and why not in a hermie thread! peace really my sense of humor is hard to get on text but in person we would be blazing and on the same page....peace and chicken grease

thats true, however the room i have my tent in is also a 24/7 dark room. 100% no light leaks, its pitch black in the tent and again, i would have seen more hermie issues in the many years instead of just 1 strain flipping out amongst 9 other perfectly fine ones.Seems like a lot of these "Hermies" are coming from tents. IME tents seem prone to light leaks which (as we all know) is a big cause of this problem.
