It may only take a couple few days of 12/12 to show sex, then throw the females right back into 24/0. I have read of many many very good growers doing this method.

If it Hermies, it aint worth keepin in my book;)

The way it's lookin, Rare Dankness #1 could be unstable and Hermie prone?

The proper way of sexing, is to take an unrooted cutting and put it on 12/12. That way you don't stunt or stress the plant out. From what I have read, all cannabis carry the hermie gene. Some are picky and will hermie under very light stress and others wont hermie even under massive abuse, but it will still carry the hermie gene and most likely pass on genetics that are very unlikely to do so.

I'm growing:
Karma Bitch
Moonshine Haze
GTH#8
GTH#2
Longs Peak Blue

I'll do an experiment. Since I have the Long's Peak Blue and it uses the RD#1, I'll take some cutting when they are ready and stress the plants out and see how sensitive they are to popping nanners. With some strains you can get away with sexing them 12/12 and others will hermie. It sucks but some really elite genetics are hermie prone. OGRaskal,Cali connection have some good stuff that's prone to it. Chemdawg D will hermie from light stress but I would never get rid of it.

Dude, no offense, but judging by your started posts and the kind of questions you ask, you don't seem like the most experienced grower. Nothing wrong with that, but I see you speaking very "matter of fact" for someone that doesn't know how far to keep their light away in veg or whether or not your soil is too hot. That's pretty basic stuff man.

from what ive read, there is a XXfemale that does not have the hermie gene. I read it in GG grow bible he was using VicHigh (or something like that) as an example, or vic wrote an article or something idk.

Are you sure it's void of the hermie gene or just not prone to it?

Also I have experience at growing, I'm not a guru or a master at it by any means. I moved to a new area with less than 20% humidity and I have been having problems with the water here. I changed soil and a few other things making it harder to diagnose. It changed the game a bit. I figured out the problem. It was too much Ca in my water and it was causing sulphur to be locked out at any good PH range. Mysterious changes in your plants will make you question the basics. These problems will just make me a better grower.

ya most grows I have some problem, I usually solve it, getting better in the process.

ya im sure it said it cannot hermie, how he did it was take clones, let them root, then test each plant by flowering the clones 12/12 for like a week, then 24hrs light, then 12/12 for a couple days, ect. really fucking with the light cycle.
Then whatever one doesnt hermie is the true XX, it could take a lotta tries

not to be funny, but it seems like the ignorance gets more attention rather than someone actually looking for general help in this thread. i spoke to Mrs RD and she'd answer the question but i decided to ask here just to see all the rd reps would throw some suggestions out there. here it is days later no response or advice what so ever.

honestly i can see why people lead towards being negative in this thread as appose to being positive/conducive when it comes to showing interest in rd genetics. it's been said many of times and i am starting to truly believe it, people only really respect violence (violence being the negative post and comments). when it's all said and done fuck what who's being ignorant, it's business. as business minded people the last thing that should come into play should be how a question was asked or what was said that didn't rub you the right way. if anything it should be help all that is asking/seeking and deal with the emotional shit later because that shit doesn't promote sales, something some still don't seem to get.

Mrs Rd explained something to me and i understood where she was coming from. i told her if all works out i'll pick some more of their stock up but besides Mrs Rd i see no other reason to do so. for a rep or anyone down for the rd cause my first thought would be to seek and find those that purchase or have any interest into rd stock, shower them with my experience showing them what they are in stored for in the future with rd which in return will keep them coming back when it comes to making any future purchases. basically killing 2 birds with one stone without barely doing any hard work.

however it seems like some just want to go the opposite way and get upset or can't understand why people are questioning rd motives. no disrespect to anyone, not my intentions, i was just thinking out loud.

when it's all said and done i want to be a firm believer in what i brought as appose to just wishing upon a star all goes right just because i brought this choice of stock without any previous knowledge of them.
