Have you ever grown anything else? Compared to a whole bunch of houseplants or even commercial crops, cannabis is remarkably resilient to all sorts, temperature and humidity fluctuations, fluctuations in the availability of nutrients, etc

Except for exposing it to those conditions are the exact things that make it unstable and herm…. Just because it can survive to repopulate doesn’t mean it’s the desired characteristics of what the consumer wants. In fact, if that could be bred out , people would fucking live and prefer that.

But hey, insult and attack me instead of having a conversation, fucking lol.

I grow photoperiods but live very far north. Light leaks should by your logic herm cannabis for me, because it's "so unstable".

But they don't. Not even when I'm nowadays a rather lazy grower and they're definitely stressed, and often.

Hell, rn I've a revegged plant in flower, it survived accidentally (forgot one bud on it), it's roots we're entirely rotted, etc etc, and it still hasn't hermed.

Not to mention it's from a feminised seed. If you have problems with cannabis herming, then it's most likely that you just have shitty seeds. Order some regular seeds and sex them yourself and they definitely won't be nearly as "unstable" as feminised seeds. (In quotes because a majority of them aren't.)

I've grown for ~15-17 years.
