Say if you are using 12 12 to flower try six on six of six on six off for a day to shake things up a bit. After make sure the 12 12 is begun and ended at the same time. Growers who experience power outages when they are not home will tell you, if they have alot of plants, that some seeds were found in the bounty. Hope this helps.

excellent explanation, i have tried to explain how that works before but could never get the point across . you put it in nice simple terms so everyone can understand. i have explained it as a kinda of self preservation printed right into the genetics of the plant. a female plant will produce a few male flowers late into flowering when it feels "the end is near" this is an attempt to produce offspring if there is no male present. all living creatures have the basic natural instinct to survive and reproduce. the only "problem with this method of reproduction is that with no male chromisome(xy)present the offspring will always be female(yy). i might have the letters for the chroms. backwards but the meaning is still the same.
