Problem: A marijuana plant that grew fine outdoors has turned hermaphroditic after taking the cuttings and growing them indoors. How can this be prevented?
Solution: That particular plant is specially adapted for outdoor growing. By taking it indoors, you’ve produced certain stresses and the plant subsequently turns hermaphroditic. There aren’t really any solutions to this (other than to keep growing that particular strain outside). Sometimes, cloned indoor plants might exhibit hermaphroditic tendencies because of some intergenerational, non-genetic (but chromosomal) adaptation method (i.e. a recessive gene).

Problem: I’m growing six different varieties in my outdoor marijuana garden that was started with stash seeds. Three of the plants are now hermaphroditic. Why is that? What (if anything) should I do about it?
Solution: You might be working with plants that were genetically programmed to be hermaphroditic. You received the stash seeds in that form (meaning the buds were self-fertilized and were always going to produce hermaphroditic plants).
The only option here is to try picking the male flowers. This can be a time-consuming process and is generally only somewhat successful because you tend to miss some flowers. If the plants are chalk full of male flowers, you might have to remove the plants altogether to make sure that all the other plants stay seed-free.
