They actually worked on solving my back problem versus just masking the pain like the steroid shots in my spine. I think I’ll pass on the next round of shots. Sorry that surgeon won’t be able to make his Mercedes payments. I feel bad.
I was in an accident back in January,my truck was a total loss and I just went to physio as well and they told me I had whiplash and it worked like a charm,I can move my neck instead of my body to look in different directions and it sure cut the excruciating pain just by doing exercises they gave me. ,then I had a massage yesterday to boot. My doctor pushed pain pills all this time,the bastard. I haven't felt this good since the accident .

FWIW, based on my understanding of stress and how it effects plants, the stress a young plant experiences is unlikely to cause it to hermi unless the plant continues to experience stress in one form or another throughout it's growth until the point it hermies. In most cases a plant that hermies usually does so because of light stress caused by some form of light getting to the plant during the dark period of the flower cycle such as a hole in a tent where light from outside the tent is able to get into the tent during the lights out period. Some have even reported that they think the little red light on some devices like a humiidifier for example, that shows the device is running can do it. That seems a bit hard to believe since it's such a small amount of light but on the other hand it doesn't take much light to cause light stress.

Some plants on the other hand will hermi if the plant is forced to go well beyond the period when it should be harvested. Such as a plant meant to be harvested after 8 weeks but the grower keeps them going 10 or more weeks trying to achieve 50/50 cloudy/amber in the trichomes. This theory is based on the assumption that the flowers have remained unpollenated (sensimilla) since there should be no reason for the plant to hermi if the flowers have been pollinated and are producing seeds. The whole idea of a plant having the hermi response due to stress is that it is seen as a means of survival. The plant experiences stress in the late stages of it's life and sensing that it has yet to be pollinatted, it quickly produces it's own male flowers to pollinate the plant before it dies, This is believed to be an effort by the plant to keep it's genetics alive thru the seeds made from hermied male flowers pollinating the existing female flowers. Since plants have a limited life span if flowers are allowed to go past the normal harvest time (to ripen the trichomes), where the plant begins to die off naturally that dying off becomes a form of stress for the plant that triggers the hermi response.
The one thing that is impossible to predict is the nature of the individual plant. Like humans not all plants are identical.
I check my room for light leaks, I have a well kept tent within a dark room. It is double dark. Light leaks are not a problem.
I never grow my plants late into the flowering stage I don't even bring my plants to the fade.

I think I'm going to grow the seedling that got off to a rough start and just keep a very close eye on it. In one sense no matter what the plant does it will not give a definitive answer, there are too many variables.

After 55 years of growing, I still make mistakes and I'm still learning. At one time I was obsessed with growing but I'm not any longer. I was growing high quality cannabis flowers before most people even knew you could. I no longer desire to be obsessed with growing, I just want to have fun, enjoy gardening; that I've been doing since 12 years old, when I entered veggies and flowers in the fall fair.

Hey y‘all. Taking a solo break as I gave Mr sub a kitchen pass today. There is a little Christmas party at the record shop we shop at. He’s been a little short and grouchy lately so I figured he needed a me break all to himself. Hope it resets him for a while…

im staying at home doing more Christmas stuff. Wrapped a few packages and made another something for the baskets. Todays was well I’m not sure I think they are called mud buddies or white trash but all my peeps look forward to it so I’m making it again.

The only issue I have is they seem to be pushing it, I think it's great for terminally ill people or for those who want to leave with some dignity,some are using it because they are depressed or poor and that's just temporary for most and many can turn it around.
If they start selling something called Soylent Green, don't buy it. :biggrin:

Let me ask that differently, will you be vaporizing, eating, or using suppositories.

The easiest and safest for a first timer, requiring the least amount of equipment would ostensibly be Quick Wash Ethanol (QWET). You can use it for all of the above but it won't be as rich in entourage terpenes as a BHO.
