HI PRIMSTER!!
: )

Plants will show there sex...before flowering...

switiching to 12/12 (flowering) just pushes the plant along.. telling it... that winter is coming and that it needs to start reproduction...

but even if 12/12 doesn't come... the plant will still show its GENITALIA..

Further more, if a female plant is not harvested.. and you keep growing it after 8-16 weeks of 12/12, it will produce male flowers and self pollenate..
This is called SURVIVAL!!!!!!!!!!!

LOVE

SOme people claim that these seeds that are made from "self pollenation"
are feminized seeds. ZANDOR has actually published some COOL shit regarding this phenomenon

And now you KNOWM

LOVE

You just answer one of my most intriguing questions ever... I had no idea what happened to plants after they where ready to harvest, but didn't get harvested.

I thought aliens came down and took it away...
