lol good shit bro. i was like whats this guy jabbering on about? he usually makes plenty of sense. now that you grasp the concept, whats your thoughts on the matter?Ok, I finally understand. At first I was like why would you want to stress them if you want it to be low stress. I was thinking in human terms, low stress means pretty chill. Rather than using a technique to put a low level of stress on the plants intentionally. Took me a few days.

Couldnt agree more!after doin some test grows for breeders over the last few yrs ive found a MH light gets me no less than 7 females per pack, with hps i get usually 50/50 m/f ratio, not sayin its defo that but it works a treat for me ;)

like to think i give my seedlings a very optimal grow space. i also have a hard time finding males in regular seed packs. i used to love it, now that im looking for males to breed with it kinda sucks. most males ive gotten is two from a 12 pack. doesnt give you many options to choose from. so i guess im interested for the opposite reason as most. do you think if i gave seedlings less optimal living conditions id get more males?
There are some plants and animals that change their sex as a response to climate conditions- alligators are one of the more famous examples; if the mound is warm it gives more males, cooler gives more female alligators (or maybe I have it backwards- I'm not an alligator).
My point here is that I don't think cannabis seeds decide what sex they're going to express as a response to environmental stimulus. It's built in at the beginning. You got 12 beans they'll be most likely to run 1/2 and 1/2 whatever the conditions, unless you either 1. create conditions that inhibit one sex or the other, or 2. run feminized gear.
did you make a rhetorical statement look like a question? in order to chastise ow? Wowahh.. then take what you can from this thread. it seems to me the more stable/optimal living conditions the easier it is to end up with higher female ratios. im just trying to figure out if unstable or uncomfortable living conditions causes a higher male ratio
good/great pointsyo 420! I saw a thread somewhere where the guy claims he can spot male/female seeds by looking at the seeds through a magnifying glass. So if thats true, then abviously a male seed will be male and ...
I always felt thathigher humidity gives more females, than dry conditions, at seedling stage.
Dunno about the fan on them, but moving air is essential, just for healthy development. Never really thaught it will change mal/female ratios. But still believe in the humidity. Might just be one of my superstitions, but fuck hey...
