The male and female traits are in genetics...BUT...a female CAN become a hermie with too much stress.

yea im pretty sure the seeds have m/f genes. and thats how you can get feminized seeds because they take the time to check each one under a microscope or something right??

I did the 24 hour vegging simply because I wanted faster maturity,worked well no stressing and good roots.Only ended up with one male but only had 2 plants,eh but do whatever works good for your plants.

Good to know. I wondered about the 24/0 lighting. That is not how they would grow in nature. I can see why that might Jack with your plants. I am doing 18/6 because that is what I have been told by so many people who have grow longer than me.

i always use 24/0 for the first 2 weeks , just to establish a nice root system & a solid foundation ,, then i switch to 18/6 until i decide to flower

seeds dont come male or female. sex is isnt determined until the first real set of leaves... and YES 24/7 will make more males than 18/6. regardless of what peoples personal experiances are i'm gonna stick with what jorge cervantes grow bible. Im mean come on this guy has grown more plants than eveyone on this site COMBINED!!!!!
