New Grower Is my plant hermie???

I would contact the seedbank which you purchased these from and also contact the breeder (barneys farm) and explain what has happened. A germination rate of 33% (1/3 seeds) is not acceptable by any standards - not only this but the only seed that you have left turned out to be a hermie, also not acceptable by growers standards! :(

I'm 110% sure the seedbank and breeder are more than willing to help you out here (so long as you write a nice email/contact to them and are not rude). The problem with hermies is that not only will the male flowers grow where you can just pick them off, but they will grow INSIDE the bud itself, which is a real problem as seedy bud is generally bad, not always though, but it's something I personally wouldn't smoke at all.

So yeah, contact the seedbank and breeder and you should be good to go and see if they can send out more seeds to you; in the meantime continue growing your existing plant and remove any male flowers.

Hope all goes well! :Sharing One:
 
Smoking hermie bud is almost like smoking shwag or brickweed. It will get you high but those seeds that pop in your eye when burning a bowl is a total pain in the ass.

Nope, still pot, can still be potent.

However, do everyone a favor and throw out the hermie seeds. Why struggle with something that's going to be a problem forever when you could just spend 40-50 bucks to get some new beans with no problems. I've heard about all kinds of problems with barnies, I'd suggest you stick to something with a good reputation. MI5 has always been my first recommendation for new growers, it practically grows itself and is relatively problem free. I've also used MI5 as a breeding plant with great success, her crosses are always nice.

Okay thanks, I've ordered a new set of 5 seeds of THC Bomb AUTO last night and came with a free sweets seeds cream mandarin fast version and a free sweet seeds AUTO dark devil and it didn't break the bank !!

quick question, could I grow these in a small pot as I have barely any room to grow my plants, e.g. And empty 2L coca cola bottle with the top few inches cut off and drainage holes in the bottom?
 
You could, but those are some quality seeds, I would say it's worth the few bucks to treat them that way and get decent pots :)

You got some cool as hell freebies there too, people love Sweet Seeds

Good luck and journal what you grow. I want to see that THC bomb go around
 
And empty 2L coca cola bottle

only thing there good for is drinking and using it for homemade co2 not to grow buds.if u want to grow proper buds 3-4 bucks on some pots not much more dearer than a bottle of coke and tastes so much better
 
Not so, I've grown some nice plants in half gallons. However, I don't recommend a newbie trying it. Give them two gallons a piece min.

Don't know why you said "nope". I said pretty much the same exact thing. All I do is get a QP of some Mexi-brick for $160 and it's hella potent enough to get me through until I harvest my own plants.
