Yeah it does. Hopefully that will fix the problem, if it doesn't then its getting locked out, or its something else. I am pretty sure its Mag def but you never know.

yes, water now. It is important to do so because you want the roots to start searching for moisture and expand its rooting system in the new pot.

P.S If you guys want to see whats been going on with my problem OG here is the link

Man that really sucks. One time I planted 20 plants, and 18 of them turned out to be female. So I guess its just luck. Usually its a 50/50 ratio. I have heard people claim that keeping there plants under 16hrs of light instead of 18 or 24 increases the chances of females. Do I know if its true? No I don't, but hey its a claim. Reason why I think that claim is bunk is because a seed already has a predetermined sex. Either a male of female Chromosome. Although a female can hermie, or you can get a seed that was feminized. That seed will have the hermie gene activated. So you will either get a all female or hermie plant

There is a lot of debate about MJ seeds being predetermined sex or not. I believe they are, but you can influence the sex. Like you can stress a female to hermie. Or you can spray them with chemicals to create feminized seeds. Very interesting huh? Genetics fascinates me

Yeah and what sucks is I know its a good strain too (WW mix with some kind of afgan plant) lol I've read about banana peels and shit before you germ them to feminize and some other shit too. I'm. Just hoping my seeds get here in the next few days so I can start a real grow again. This female I got is so small and the lst wasn't nearly as good as my huge male I pulled :(

I'm just looking @ it as a good hands on experience for me since it is/was my first grow.

Banana peals? Are you sure you don't mean the male banana on a female plant? Thats what is used to create feminized seeds. Its called the Rodelization method.

I actually made a thread about it here in 2009. Check it out its a good read

https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/154806-feminizing-seeds-rodelization-method.html

Yeah its hands on is the best way to get experience. Soon you will be able to look at your plant and know exactly what it needs. Yeah that really sucks because White Widow is a awesome strain. If you remember it was the last strain I grew. Pure WW from Greenhouse seed Co. One of my favorite strains along with Afgani

No I'm posititve I read on the site somewhere about wrapping your seeds in old banana peels and putting them in a plastic bag and some other shit lol thought it was weird as hell

Oh Ok. The method of using the banana peels Ethylene gases to create feminized seeds. I have heard of this, but I have no idea if it works. I am very skeptical. I would love to see someone here try it and see what the results were. In theory it sounds great.

I have about 70 regular seeds (good ones) sitting around my house, I suppose I could try but my time, resources, and space will be devoted to my feminized seeds soon lol but I still might just have to give it a test run w/ like like 2 week veg and small pots for the banana peel seeds lol

Don't worry about it if you don't have the space and resources. But if your ever bored and have the space its a experiment for you.

You do know feminized seeds have a good chance of going hermie right? Make sure you don't stress them much.

I've heard that but am not worried, i don't think that they have a good choice of turning hermie but the threat is always there.

Just making sure you knew. Yeah the threat is always there. Some Hermie easier then others. You should be alright as long as they are not stressed a lot.
