Thanks rhyo! 99.9% of the talk you hear about hermies is when a plant has been stressed more than it can handle. Usually it's caused by a light leak but it can be anything. They suck because they can appear quickly and go unnoticed easily, and pollinate a whole room of females. So you get a seedy crop and the whole crop of seed has a hermie as the parent. Not exactly great genes to grow with. As mentioned I induced mine chemically, so it's a different situation to normal hermies.
A scrubber is a device/object which forces your exhaust air flow through a layer of granulated activated carbon. It's a big blockage and a challenge to work around, but it's necessary. It works like magic when you do it right, and no matter what anyone says, your plants will stink, and it's very scary to be in control of some weed that's stinking If you're a noob then don't trust your own nose. It's a very easy smell to get used to and you don't realise it's there, but people will notice. They notice everything.
You can also use ozone devices but there's some issues you have to be careful of with health. These don't cause a blockage to your airflow as far as I'm aware. But I think the health thing rules them out for most micro grows. Hydrosun recommended the BioZone so I'd check that out if you wanted ozone.
