a little bit of info

I read that a german study showed that 80% of plants given at least 4 inches for tap root growth ended up being female...bias, maybe? Even if that's not true, maybe that study would lie new grounds for study into figuring out what determines the sex of the plant. Hell, for all we know, they're could be something really simple one could do to get all female plants without genetics. And if it's as simple as giving more grow depth or something like that, then it's worth looking into. Just food for thought. ;)

I'll have to figure out where I found it...I was just kinda browsing.

Hello,

Putting known feminizing methods aside, I do not rule out that there is an easy answer, but I do not put much faith in it either.

To me this is like saying that if a lady holds her foot just right while having sex she will give birth to a girl.

In my, addmited limited, experience science just does not work that way. There are many variables at work when determining the sex of a being (plant, animal, human).

I believe that the sex of the seed is determined befor it sprouts a tap root.

Take care

Peace

true, it sounds kinda silly, wishful thinking huh?
