Hermie solution - confirmed!
PS....I believe Reverse only works with female hermies. It's also only gauranteed to work if you use it according to the instructions on the bottle....day 1 of bloom and then repeat on day 10. Otherwise it does NOT promise to stop male flowers ALTHOUGH I have heard of SEVERAL people using it in other ways with good results. ;)

Unfortunately I figured that the hermie question was one of those that gets asked over and over and over, and that it pretty much always got the same answer. As a result, I didn't see any of YOUR posts.
Guess that's what I get for being lazy :o

Ah...I don't know if that's lazy. It certainly never occured to ME that there might be some spray out there that would prevent hermies.....know what I mean? I found the stuff as much of a miracle as you did.....believe me. :D And yes....it was AFTER I discovered a problem myself. ;)
It is kind of funny because I have a very good friend who sends me seeds from his plants that hermie.....the seeds are all female because the plants themselves are. On another site someone mentioned that such seeds will also most likely hermie (of course) so he always got rid of them. I don't......I use Reverse, grow them, and smoke them. I doubt I'd use such seeds for breeding but for growing for myself of COURSE! :thumbsup:

Yeah, I knew about the hermie thing. I had a batch of clones from my plant that I was gonna use to make a couple of mothers for future grows. When the plant hermied I chucked them, figuring I didn't want to keep the hermie genetics since very future grow would also hermie.
But now that I know about this stuff, I might take another handful of cuttings. It'll save me from having to order seeds for next time.

Does anyone know why Dutch Master Reverse has a disclaimer in tiny little letters stating "hydroponic use only"? I can't see how it would make much difference as it's a foliar spray. Thanks.

I wasn't aware of that......but I'm sure you can use it on soil plants. I've used it on plants grown in soil myself. Perhaps they are afraid people will snort it or inject it or something.......

I wonder if it produces manboobs

I checked with the Dutch Master website in Australia. In their FAQ section they say the reason they put "for hydroponic use only" is for registration purposes. Apparently all of their foliar sprays can be used with any grow media. Cool. Spray away!

It's been about 3 days since spraying with Reverse. Other than some leaves starting to turn lighter, I really haven't noticed much. Does anyone know how long it takes before you notice results?

What sort of results are you looking for? The only result you should really see is no balls which is more of a what you DONT see thing I think.
