a little up date. I treated my female turn male plants with 'Reverse',and 'Saturator'. So far everything looks kosher. No loss in color, no limp action, and hopefully no more balls either? If it works a,and I see no reason for it not to work. I will personally take a gift to Honolulu the next time I'm there to the gal who runs and owns the Kahala hydro shop. She gave me a bottle of Reverse for free! When I called Green hands of Aloha, all they gave me was a bunch of grief for free!? When I asked them if they stocked 'Reverse', the person who I spoke to said we don't sell gimmicks here. But when I went to their store, they didn't sell much of anything. They had about three to four different nutrients,and not all of them were complete product lines either. So I thought to myself, "what the fuck"? They didn't sell gimmicks, or much of anything else at that time. No, I take that back. They did have a lot of dirt. Funny how they talk about not selling gimmicks, yet their main thing back then was their LED lights. LED lights in the flower room is probably the biggest gimmick out there in my opinion. This was all about three years ago. Back then you couldn't find shit on internet about 'Reverse' look now and everybody is using it...and it works!

hey puna,
I used these products before and did not have luck with them but it could have been for several reasons. It could have been because i did not use it religiously enough to get an accurate result from using both products at one spray. the other option that i think is closer to the truth is that is it damn near impossible to change the gender of a plant because mother nature has something to say about that. but i wish u luck. no one likes a herm. peace and good luck.

What did you have in mind?
I don't have a breeding pair to make regular seeds as I was gifted a cut of the Fire Og
I've made S1s.
Pineapple Og (Fire Og x Mosca's C99) Gave those to a friend back in Cali to grow, turned out amazing... I've got more c99 pollen so I can do that..

I am hoping to get at least one male out of some Blueberry dominant Whitaker Blues that my partner is growing-,to breed with the Fire Og...
Out of 14 plants, we picked the 2 that exhibited strong Blueberry characteristics...

If you have some insane pollen I would be happy to hit a lower branch of the Fire Og with it and give you pick of the litter :)

brah, the stuff works. Active ingredient is stuff used to make seedless watermelon & cuccumbers. It works on female herm plants only. I was getting ball formation every couple of days on my plants. Since first sparay no more sign of new ball formation. I now only see small clusters of 'white hairs'on my sprayed plants, and it's full steam ahead!

To cure mildew on a week 2 flowering plant I put milk in a spraybottle and sprayed the plant, now I got dried milk like dried elmers glue (but not stuck to just stuck on) all the leaves. However No mildew and the plants doing healthy!
That sounds gnarly... I wonder if this is where some of your abdominal distress comes from, you can't smoke this stuff if your lactose intolerant. ;)

slow down partner. Sounds like you're gonna be fighting to keep your "dick skinners", off her once she really starts budding? I'm happy for you dude. What are you feeding her?

Oh, and I forgot to mention "Hermie update". Tomorrow will mark the half way point(5days) of first treatment with Reverse. I'm happy to report no strange growth and any weird behavior in general So far so good. Right now I have this rather small grow going because my living arrangements are in limbo right now, and I wasn't sure when I'd be moving. But because of the Reverse, I now have what appears to be stable (2) trainwreck.X 707, plus (5) traninwreck X Bubba Kush, (1)Super Lemon Haze,and last but not least (5) Whitaker Blues. But the WB aren't sexed yet. I got my fingers crossed on them. Like I said, possible male keeper with WB group. The one has such a thick stem,and smells so damn good.. Either way, male or female..this buggar is gonna get "locked down"Q

come to think about it. I really hope it is a keeper male. Beautiful formation, and a great smell makes this a keeper know doubt. Plus it's time I start building on my catalog, and what a starting foundation too!

What size are you wanting to make? I made a small one (6'x7'x5') out of lumber, pier blocks, and greenhouse clothe. All the supplies bought at Home Depot. Gonna switch out the green house fabric on the roof for some heavy duty clear plastic once vegging is complete.
 
Just wanted to say howzit. First time grower here, found a rare bagseed so I stuck it in my closet with some foxfarms and a CFL. Wish I could grow outside but I live in town so no more space. Good to see other locals here :joint:
