BIRTH CONTROL PILLS
A solution of one pill to one gallon of water has been reported to cause increased growth speed in tomato plants. It is possible this will help herb plants too. One treatment administered before flowering and one administered a few weeks before harvesting might help the plant mature faster.

"One grower told a story of the same type of plants, one administered the estrogen grew to 20 feet, while the other was 7 feet. This may be purely anecdotal, but it may work. Try it and report back to us on results."

Also, i remember on the news a few years ago that the fish around the coast of the UK were mostly female cos of the effects of the pill discharged into the ocean from the sewers via womens piss

so the idea isnt far fetched
rofl...... yes it is far fetched. the fish thing is the possibley the second funniest thing i've heard in my life... the "birth control pills make your plant female" is obviously.. the first.

1. Don't believe everything you read.
2. Don't believe anything you "get from the news".
3. Birth Control Pills are not going to garuntee a female plant.Nor is using birth control pills for growing a proven techinique.

End of story.

Hey...I heard that if you use the pollen from a male plant on a tomatoe plant, you can get Potmatoes...no bs!
