15 Days Into Flower They Have Over Doubled In Size And Sprouted Some Sacks With Those Pretty Pistils. I Feel Dirty Now. They Were Clones From Great Mothers. What Are The Leading Causes For This?
Heat Or What?

propagation is the cause. You can try slicing them off and see if they return.

I Have Cut Off About Thirty Or So Very Well Hidden Sacks On The Front 2 The Small One In The Middle Is Fine. If I Break'em Off Will They Be Nice Big Buds Like There Moms? Will Sacks Keep Popin Up And For How Long?

thats a dificult question to answer mate.
it may just go on till finish from the sound of things, which means

1 you'll have to keep pulling them off and be watchfull
2 you may have some unwanted seeds for your trouble

i'd be starting off some new seeds or clones from a bag free mum, and just stick it out until the new ones are ready to be put into flower

(ps. i'd chuck the seeds mate, you dont want more hermies...)

Tell us something about your set up and what the plants have gone through. What are your temps like? How long have they been in flower? Do you have light leaks in your flower room? What are you feeding them? The more info you give us the better we can help you. Clones hermie from stress. If they are from good mums, then you have somehow stressed them after taking the clones. So give us details, sweetie.

Peace

General Hydroponics Nutes With Kool Bloom And Florolicious Bloom. Temp 85 To 88. I Pruned Them While Vegging . Vegged For 8 Weeks About. On Day 16 Of Flower. No Light Leaks. I Closed Myself In There To Make Sure It Was Darker Than Dim Moon Light. 1000w Super Hps Bulb, Coal Filter, And Fan On Floor Pushing Air Up To Filter And Tryin To Keep Heat Up.

well it sounds like the hermyism is genetic then.. best if you ditch any clones you may have had from these 'ladies' and start anew. follow the advice given above, flower these out and start with fresh genetics mate

i could rant and rave, on and on about genetics and breeding... anyways. best if you start over with genetics from a reputable source

I Just Started 10 White Widow From Amsterdams Seed Site And Ordered Some Herijuana From Sannie. They Should Do Better Right. Were Can I Get Some Auto Flower Seeds From?

The temperature is the reason. Pot likes temps of from 72 to 78, maybe will tolerate up to 81, but over that you are stressing the plants. Have you grown successfully with this set up before or is this your first time? Some how you have to get the temps down. Maybe an air conditioner or re-routing your cool air intake. Where do you get your cool air from? is it the next room or outside and what are the temps where you live? Sometimes if you have a cool crawlspace to draw air from it is better than a heated or lived in area.

Also, tell me how your exhaust system is set up as well. Maybe we can see something you don't.

Peace

This Will Be Second Crop. Last Crop No Problems. The Only Thing I Did Different Is Seal Off The Top Of The Grow Area With Plastic To Contain Smell And Pull All The Smelly Air Through My Filter. Last Time I Stunk Up Whole House. Area Is In A Basement Temp Stays 70 To 68 Heats Up When Lights On Of Course But It Seems To Be Alot More Than Last Time. Do You Now Of Any Good Strong Yeilding Higher Temp Strains?

How strong is your fan, you may not be circulating the air well enough which could have caused this problem.

jangel · #12 (**permalink**) 05-04-2009, 05:17 PM

Where do you vent TO and where do you get your cool air FROM?

If you are telling me that you do not have a cool air intake,and are drawing it from the house, and I mean from outside cool air, then that is why your temps are higher. Do you have a pic of your setup? I will come back and post a link to a thread on exhaust and venting. This is VITAL to keeping the temps down. You cannot grow successfully and predictably without this done properly. And if all else fails then maybe you might have to invest in an airconditioner.
Get back to me on this, please.

If the first grow was in the winter, with mean temps below freezing and now, temps outside and warmer. Hence heat problems.

READ THIS PLEASE THEN POST QUESTIONS This will explain what I mean to you.

Ill Post Pics Tonight When Lights Are On

I agree that temps are a big problem. If you do not have a resiliant strain, imo, your prunning can be added stress. Most suggest to just let the fan leaves fall off naturally
