I didn't put 2 and 2 together. I had no idea that "build a soil" was gas's site. Makes sense now why they hate on coco so much.

Now they've got "donate now" banners all over the place. No thanks. Why would I want to donate to people that talk to me like I'm a pimpley faced kid??

I might pop these seehdsman WW fems lol.

Where's Rrog...me missy miss.

Trying a diff germ technique. Soaked in shot glass (stirring every couple of hours for dissolved oxygen), all 18 Bodhi cracked in 14 hours, planted in vagisil aloe warmly moistened peat (25% hulls), watered with a very very light kelp/alfalfa/fish hydrolysate brew, put in a container with lid that has drilled out holes, and put on DVR covered. Over thinking much?

all you guys should come to led section and join the party cup comp. all types of lighting is welcome

You got banned? REALLY? Excuse me while I delete the link to the forum. I read all of that convo, banning you is a load of balls. Personally, I have just finished a long fucking fight with some really jaded 'conform or die' hippies in the music biz. I have absolutely no will to deal with plastic enlightenment again.

Got me some great tips there and all, but I feel the level of tolerance on the LOS forum is a little low.

AND WAY TOO MANY SENSEIS IN THE DOJO.

EDIT: Just thought to come share my last post on said thread. For my brother Red:

Yeah, but why boot Red off the forum? I know the guy is a bit far out, but I also know he did not direct any harsh or insulting words nor attack any body on a personal level. But he is banned, can't log in etc.

Starting to look like one of those Hippie parties where people look at you down their noses, standing about all jaded repeating the same refrain like a stuck record. I really thought fellas were bigger than that on here. I was wrong. Cheerio chaps.

It says a LOT when one can actually comment that Rollitup is more tolerant an atmosphere.

We don't need to put up with that bullshit. Who in the hell do some people think they are? It's a plant. Have fun and play around with things. There are no set rules. You guys are the best crew.

Intolerance always leads to suffering for someone, remember those A-holes called NAZI'S.
Peace & Love. Myco

They're just a bunch of barney's.

Thnx guys for the exile support. I don't feel so shunned now.

I got banned too. Gas and his wife are so rude and full of themselves. I just couldn't help but share my feelings on the subject after red got banned. I told them if I wanted to be talked to like a 12 year old I would give my grandma a call.

The good news is that my ban will be lifted in 2 years. lol

3 watts are where it's at these days. 5's cost way too much unless you buy 5000 a month.

I use 2 300 watt cheapo LEDs from ebnay for veg and they work great. There is no way I could put that much light in my tiny veg spot in HID with out an AC unit. I use this one:

I may add another one as they have not effected temp at all. In fact, for a while I was using CFLs to warm up my veg room.

It's gotta be the weather stow. I haven't had this many males since bag seed and pimple days. I thought it was from starting on 12/12 combined with cold. I wouldn't be watching f'n sacs if I had more females. Nothing like checking hundreds of balls several times daily, to have one pop at night. Oh well, got a bunch of good Bodhi powder, pollinated moms, and reveg'n clones. I'm about to post some 'good' stuff on Bodhi thread lol. Got 50/50 exactly on the BO...funny thing is each gender has a small, med, and large.

I do not want to argue, I want to frolic. I'm a nutty bunny.

Sex in cannabis seeds in predetermined, in my opinion. Why do feminized seeds exist? Because the sex is set ahead of time. Cannabis seeds are not crocodile eggs.

If you ask me, getting more males in just a bad draw of seeds, not environmental condition.

I tend to agree with you Trousers, but I have seen plenty of people (subcool being one) saying that the sex of the plant can be manipulated from seed based upon the temperature at which you germinate. I have been getting a really high % of males since my heat mat took a poop, so I'm starting to wonder if there's something to this??

The genetic make up is decided at pollination methinks. The rest is co incidence mostly I feel. Then again, the colder it was the more girls I got, DB was germed in very cool temps... Hhhmmmmmmm

I meant to say males in my post above. Edited that.

Subcool (and others) were saying that warmer conditions produce more females, so your 10/10 females on DB kinda disproves that theory.

All opinion


Feminized seeds actually existing is what leads me to believe that sex is determined at pollination.
Think about it.

You have a female plant. That plant will not have a Y chromosome. A male set of chromosomes is XY, a female is XX.
You have a male plant so it has XY. To make a male there has to be both chromosomes and for a female you need only X chromosomes.

If sex were determined by environment, then every seed would have both an x and a Y. What happens to the Y chromosome when the resulting plant is female? In my opinion it was never there, exactly like when you produce a feminized seed.

IMO, the pollen either has two X chromosomes or an X and a Y.

It bothers me when people like subcool are so sure that they are right about environment and sex determination. They probably read the same article I did and thought that it sounded good. Everything I have learned about cannabis has for me pointed to the notion that sex is predetermined and there is nothing you can do about it.

I just went back and read the first part of Strawdog's article about sex and environment. It has so many holes in it and relies on such a small sample size, all while ignoring the possibility that his results were just coincidence and not reality. He starts off on this idea that feminized seeds can produce males (properly made feminized seeds can not produce males) and hermaphrodites (only dioecious hermaphrodites, which are not real hermaphrodites. Real hermaphrodites have both an X and a Y chromosome) and builds off of that faulty premise.

I think the guy who wrote the article about sex and environment had the misfortune to get a bunch of male seeds by coincidence. Then he got high and watched a nature documentary on crocodiles. Crocodile eggs are buried in a mound. On the side that gets more sun and heat, there will be more males. On the side that gets less sun and heat, there will be more females. I do not believe that is the case with cannabis seeds.

I'm inclined to say the same its all genetics. To some degree I believe environment does play a role in sex. Just not during pollination but during growth. Nice write up Trousers.

This is all very sexy talk. IME I had many more females during spring/summer. This is my first fall/winter run and my female ratio from 2 Bhodhi and 1 GG strains are a little over a third female. That's a hell of a coinkidink to me. Right now I have low temps and RH. This all by my experience, not something I read. I don't do fems often, because it seems too Un-Christian like

I like to treat my woman like...Here's my only GG Cornerstone lady (not dude) friend, two days from showing, and a day after transplant. What idiot would stress there plants like that?
