    Ditto! Not just the sex, but the growth patterns, and appetites.. With seedlings there is always that odd one that wants all kinds of special attention..

    Ok so if I have a gallon of silver solution for electroplating do i need to run current through it or is it ready as is to be sprayed. I mean is the silver already in the solution and I just need to check the ppm of the solution to see where it is and adjust it up or down some way or is it good to go and just use it and spray?

    i have produced fem seeds which im growing now using the rhodelization method(late stage pollen production) i used a stable pre98 bubba kush to cross to other clone only strains i have grown out i ended up with some great clone only fem crosses. pre 98 bubba/larry og kush pre98 bubba/blue dream pre98 bubba/sfv og kush and pre98 bubba/banana kush.

    and now to flip this around is there anyway to produce male only seeds to get a male from a female only clone selection to get pollen from the line to cross with females of other strains so the gen pool can open up more then just fem to another strain?

    Nope

    in practical terms you could look at it this way, a male that turns female can't produce a fertile seed. in genetic terms YY has never been produced that i've heard of, let alone produced and viable.

    there are some threads about that on the site i mentioned i have not looked into it myself i know with the females were reducing or stopping ethylene production. im not sure how that would work the other way around with males but it would be nice to have champion males stored away as seeds.

    Actually thats a problem with over voltage in electroplating too, it depends on the task.. Heck with some plating, no voltage at all is used (its essentially its own battery).. There is quite a science to it even in the hobby sector.. The thing is, with the silver solutions usually used for hobby electroplating electrolyte, there is no need to electrolyze it further.. (Other more professional solutions I'm not so sure about).. They all already has a ton of Ag+ ions floating around, and atleast the home-use ones can be sprayed as is (or perhaps diluted)..
    Fletch, is that solution silver nitrate/sulfate, or a cyanide containing solution??

    I almost wonder if alot of herms late season were actually fertilized to express as males but high ethylene levels and nice environment shifted their initial expression to female.. Thats why I'd personally be weary of these laFemme type products..
    And BRacer, I know flakey seeds can produce solid plants.. Its just that flakey is as flakey does, and I know the statistically best chance at a safe crop comes with flake-free genetics..
    I'd analogize it to a really friendly pit-bull.. Really tough not to find it adorable, but it could still flip and eat your juggular..

    oh i have fem seed and male/females also. its just some strains(clone only) without lots of work back crossing are not available in normal male/female seed form. so i make s-1's or fem clone only crosses to preserve some great strains in seed. if i lose my clones and cannot find new ones its like strain insurance otherwise if its a standard strain i use normal seeds. im also working with back crossing to make og kushes and bubbas in male/female format as close to the original clone as possible this just takes a while.
