No, it is not botanically possible. It is pure BS/Bro Science.

Seeds in the whole grow
Hi, I need help with my autoflowers. Today I noticed that buds are producing seeds. One of the plants is hermaphrodite and I completely missed it. What should I do now? Should I just finish the grow? Will harvesting earlier result in less seeds? Should I remove the herm. plant?:(

Calculating flowering time from seed bank info
Please explain seed banks term "flowering time". Would that be time from sprout to harvest, pre-flower to harvest, or flowering to harvest? I believe I read that pre-flowering takes 2 weeks till it enters true flower, please let me know if this is correct. Thanks!

I am new to indoor Co2 use. Have new pressure gauge with flow meter and solenoid. When the tank runs out, the solenoid stays open, causing it to get very hot. Is this normal? I'm afraid if I left for a few days, it could catch fire.
