    Default Maybe a stupid question?

    So this might be a silly question if not stupid but how do you force a plant to be male (regular) seeds ?

    U can't really make the plant a male it's already decided inside itself
    So really it's just a case of looking for male or female bits

    Some environmental factors influence sex when Seedlings have 3 pairs of true leaves.

    Some of these factors include
    -increasing the level of nitrogen makes more female plants
    -Lowering nitrogen creates more males

    -increase potassium encourages more males
    -lower potassium encourages more females.

    -Low Temps increase number of females
    -warm Temps increase number if males

    -high humidity increases females
    -low humidity increases males

    -more blue light increases number of females
    -more red light increases number of males

    -fewer hours if day increase number of females
    -more hours if day increases number of males

    Any environmental stress increases more males plants from seed.

    -more blue light increases number of females
    -more red light increases number of males

    Is that not the wrong way around ?

    From what I've read it's blue-females/ red-males

    Check out the indoor outdoor grow bible. He gets his information from Dutch-Passions website and the studies they conducted.

    I have no solid evidence of this, it's just what I've read on the subject.

    I have read,..... To make a female male use colloidal silver mix n spray onto a single branch of a female this will make the said branch a Hermie.You then collect the pollen and put it on another branch on the same plant thus cross pollinating itself and guarantees you female seeds
