Seriously cut the shit and lets get back on topic? Call em what you want just do it on your own personal time.
NOW BACK ON TOPIC...
I'm not really convinced about the whole seed thing but I am aware that ethylene does have an affect on plants. I'll throw in a few bananas with I start my plants up. I have a tree in my yard (among other fruit) so no big deal for me, just gotta fight off the banana spiders :X

Calling a banana plant a tree..... now that is really funny.

I am going to try this out with my next grow in a few weeks. The more people that participate in this the more accurate of an answer we will get and it will benefit us all because we all hate males popping up in our garden.

Wow...this thread is full of mutiny...my feelings towards bitches will always be the same,and TRUST ME..alot of guys feel this way towards them...they just dont have the balls to say it.But for every DECENT,caring,genuine girl out there..my hat goes off for you...we need more girls like that where I live man...but yeah,MOST of them ARE bitches,sluts,who lie and cheat to get what they want.....and Jared, I think there IS a saturation point because theres only so much airspace in a sealed contaoner like a mason jar..so yeah...just use as much banana peels as can CONFORTABLY fit in the space provided.
I believe that ethylene will ATLEAST make te seeds more "viable",as ethlene has been prven to speed up ripening..who knows???

HOW TO ALTER THE PERCENTAGE OF FEMALES
From literature it appears that the growth of a male or female plant from seed, except for the predisposition in the gender chromosomes, also depends on various environmental factors. For growers who are well experienced, percentage of female plants is 60% - 90% female, but less experienced growers can end up with 100% male plants. The environmental factors that, according to literature, influence gender are:
- a higher nitrogen concentration will give more females (at the three-pairs-of-leaves stage and continue for two or three weeks).
- a higher potassium concentration will give more males (at the three-pairs-of-leaves stage and continue for two or three weeks).
- a higher humidity will give more females (at the three-pairs-of-leaves stage and continue for two or three weeks).
- a lower temperature will give more females (at the three-pairs-of-leaves stage and continue for two or three weeks).
- more blue light will give more females (at the three-pairs-of-leaves stage and continue for two or three weeks).
- Fewer hours of light will give more females (at the three-pairs-of-leaves stage and continue for two or three weeks).
- In later stage, as you increase the light, the plants grow faster and show more females/less males.
Sixteen hours of light per day seems to be the best combination, beyond this makes little or no appreciable difference in the plant quality.
- Another idea is to interrupt the night cycle with about one hour of light, This gives you more females.
- Spray dilute Fish Emulsion ( 1 tablespoon per gallon ). When the plants have three sets of true leaves, plus the top sprout, give them a wetting spray of Fish Emulsion. Do it once a day for three of four days. Top and bottom of the leaves.
- To achieve 100% female plants is to expose young seedlings for several hours to an atmosphere of Carbon Monoxide. It doesn't hurt the plants, but it could kill you.
- Treatment of hempseed with ethylene gas will increase the resulting number of female plants by about 50%. Ethylene is produced by certain plants (i.e., bananas, cucumbers and melons), and these can be used to treat hempseed in a simple manner. About two weeks before you plan to sprout the seeds, place them in a paper bag or envelope and put that in a plastic bag with the peels of a ripening banana or cucumber.
Replace the peels after a couple of days, and change the bags to prevent mold.
- When hempseed is treated with the female hormone estrogen, percentage of females that are produced will increase by about 10%.
Dissolve a birth control pill in water and soak the seeds overnight in the solution. After the initial soaking, continue to treat the seeds by sprouting them on a paper towel soaked in the solution.

I am offended by you referring to women as whores and sluts. Your mother is a women you know, guess she is a slutty ball sucking whore too now isn't she? How about your sister? Slutty hoe? Of course she is. Keep on with the attitude, I'm sure your palm loves it. You are destined to die alone while masturbating on sticky funky sheets. Have a good time.
oh yeah, thats what I'm talking about!

Ya I am aware of all the environmental factors, they are in the Jorge Cervantes Growing Bible. I always follow those guidelines but in my last grow I started out with 9 plants and only 3 ended up being female and one hermed so to me it could not hurt to give the "banana method" a shot.

Are you refering to bad rep or a warning? You have only yourself to blame. Like i said, call em what you want but do it on your own time. If you cant play nice then dont play at all.
Can we simply leave it there and get back to the topic on hand now? Alot of people are (or were anyways) following this thread, lets keep it that way?
Can anyone support this? (link perhaps?) I've seen the nutrient ones before but color of light?

I had 3 males and I think it had to do with giving them flower nutes before they showed. The next one I kept on hit nitro and it showed female. I'm going to start keeping mine on high nitro untill they show. Plus I'm using apples for the banana method. It couldn't hurt you know.
