Agreed..a male plant cant be forced to become female.

A female plant wont "become" male...It can be made to produce pollen/pistils.....It will herm.

I think thats where the we start mixing things up.

A male is a male....But a herm can have its male flowers removed and continue to grow and produce bud. Thats more than likely what was told to the original poster.

An unsexed plant can be forced to become a herm too.

But a COMPLETELY male plant is a male plant to the end.

What is interesting to me...Is that there is a way to produce REAL 100% female seeds. It takes alot of work/time/knowhow....But can be done. Thats seeds that do not carry the herm trait....And will only be female.

The coveted 100% XX female.

This is way out of left feild but a long time friend of mine is a well experienced grower and i was told by him if you can succesfully remove all male pollen balls from the plant and leave it under 12/12 it will convert to a female or even a smokeable hermi..is that even remotly close to the truth? today was the 1st i heard of that. But in small hope i clipped all the pollen off my male and put him back under 12/12. figured hell its worth a try :mrgreen: but dont sound very promising to me
While on 12 12 in the middle of the darkness period give the plant an hours light. Messing up the lighting regime helps to promote hermies. Is the dark period that makes a plant start producing its sex. Messing with the dark period confuses the plant and can turn it hermie. So i would suggest to do this u got nothing to lose.

I can't believe (well, that's false, I CAN believe) nobody has experimented with the real definition behind "flip"ing cannabis!?
Simple; there's several ways to flip weed, first being Ethylene gas and degreening. For some reason, there's many Botanists here but zero knowledge besides counterculture..what a shame!
Second; Ethylene Glycol pellets used in soil during last week of veg and first couple weeks flower.
Me, I just add potato and banana peels in my soil as well as Progesterone birth control converted to fertilizer water to get 100% female plants from the get-go and use sandy soil with Ph of 7 or higher and no fertilizer from germination to sexing when I need males for breeding.

Anyways, there is an exact science to this and those who grow for buds will never understand my theories.

Potato bannana and progesterone, that sounds like something we would know about so it can't be true.
