I have a very strange and wonderful thing going on. I have put about 16 plants into my flowering room. And out of the 16, 15 where females and only one male. The strains are big bud, b52, and white rhino. You think I'm just getting lucky or is it something in the environment.:thumbsup:

low stress, feminized seeds, and possibly the strain

The seeds where nirvana and buydutchseeds.com seeds and just normal seeds. So it must be just luck, I'll know for sure when the 20 plants I have in veg get ready for flowering. If the same thing happens I'll never move out of this condo. lol

No I started buy putting the seeds in water untill the white thing poped out. I then planted them in 8" pots and put under 12 40w fl tubs untill they got about 12" tall. Then I put them on 12/12. I used MG soil, and MG plant food. The veg room is a walk in closet and the flowering room is a 4x4x5 cabnit.

I have read that the key is to get proper environment (no stress) at 21 days old. Not sure how true this is. Do you recall your growing conditions with your 3 week old plants?

Well dryst feminized has nothing to do with it, low stress probably does and the right growing conditions and care also has something to do with it. Dont consider your self lucky. Your plants just loved you and gave back what it felt you wanted :D.

Yeah thoes plant in the back are older but they are streching. 2 are about 3ft and one is 4ft and it won't stop growing. It grew 2" last night right into the light and 2 more today. If it doesn't stop it's going to be out of the room.

Many factors lead to a more predominant female plant. Some are a higher amount of nitrogen being available, a lower phosphorous amount, superthrive seems to lessen stress so it helps as well, 4" or more for the tap root to grow down, good air circulation around the plant and many, many other factors. Also be sure to make sure that the plants are not males in disguise. Of course, that depends on how long they have been in 12/12. Now, a couple of questions; 1) Is this a pure flouro grow? 2) If so, do you have any warm flouros to help with flowering? 3) A small tip, add sugar to your watering in flowering cause it helps buds grow and get bigger. 4) oh, and stop using that MG fertilezer during flowering. 5) again, what type of MG fert was it as well?
Happy Toking :rasta:

Yeah its a pure flouro grow but I did order a 1000w hps light. I also stoped using MG plant food. I know use the same stuff that I bought for my hydro system which is foxfarms big bloom. Yes I do have warm flouros for flowering, but hopefully my hps light will get here soon. I also switch to promix for soil, for the 20 plant that I have in veg right now.

How long did you veg? How long had you been flowering that the sex was determined at 21 days old?
