I am still very new to this game so I am just trying to figure my way around what is scientific truth, vs tradition, vs anecdotal incidents.
I don't know for sure but my understanding is that all weed can go hermie if stressed the "right" amount and the "right" duration, and fem seeds come about because the stress had been applied strategically. The flip side is that the easier a plant is the succumb to strategically applied "stress", the more likely they are to hermie - which seem to make sense. Hence I have not yet gone down the path of colloidal silver.
Frankly I need to do a seed grow as my germination technique needs some serious dialling in! But, I am also wary of any increase of chances in them going hermie, which is why I try to stick to regular seeds than fem seeds. But if push comes to shove, I would be spraying that colloidal silver too!!
