I don't personally think that stressing causes male flowers to appear. I have grown the same strain for 5 grows with absolutely no male flowers showing up and then all of a sudden have a couple pop out on one bud. Plants are way smarter and resourcefull than most people give them credit for. If you have a room full of female plants and they don't get polinated, they know that they haven't been polinated. And in order to perpetuate the species the female plant will sometimes produce some male flowers. In other words, it has more to do with self preservation than stress.
There are strains that have unstable genetics that can have hermie issues too. But that is unstable genetics and it doesn't matter how well you grow them, male flowers will appear.
Just remember Jeff Goldblum's line in Jurassic Park, "Life will find a way". It is oh so true,LOL!

Hey GrowMeds I was curious how close you can keep your hand under your light? I'm thinking I need to get a piece of glass to enclose my hood cuz with the fan on pulling hot air out of the hood I can only keep my hand 6" away any closer and it burns and I know my girls wont take that shit hahaha I pointed my lil cool breeze fan at the light and it's helped so just need to hear about your stuff ect since you're ahead of me by a grow I'd say...
yea that's what I thought cuz at the shop under a 1k with glass it was cooler than my lil 400!! myabe I should've got a bigger fan?? I thought 177cfm 4" Vortex would be fine right?

Good info - thanks Mist.
My next grow will be some better genetics so we will see.
I didn't mean that you had bad genetics. I was just saying that your girls may just be trying to make their own "male" to help perpetuate themselves.
Shit if you only knew how many times I've done that to my moms!!! They are back on track but I was fucking up and being lazy for a while there...
ya ive done that befor in the past with water.. o they can make it another 12 hours... ha sikeeeee

Damn bro, you got some fun things going on in there. The ladies always recover quick from a droopy spell.
My plants were droopy as all hell the other day and they were perfect 12 hours before I checked... I'm not used to how hungry they get as they grow... rookie error on my part
Those suckers are going to swell up so nice in the nest couple weeks. What are you thinking for these... 70 days? Cant wait buddy, I'm excited for ya!
