looking to increase female to male ratio

there's an additive out there and i can't remember what the fuck it's called. i know the main ingredient in it is used by commercial grows to get seedless fruits. what's it called?

also, anyone have experience with the G.H hardwater line of nutes? i don't have RO so i'm looking into that

buuump... bumm bum bum buuummp

i know it's out there and some has to know what it's called!

theres a product called reverse that stops seed development in hermi's i cant remember what the other chemical is called tho

do you know who makes it?

estrogen? or maybe spray some period blood haha

just in case anyone was interested:

if ur concern it that high of hermies then u need to worrie a tad more of ur basics my friend. light leaks, stress watering. sumthings goin wrong if ur that worried of hermies. reg seeds ftw. goodtimez

no concern about hermies what so ever. i'm at 15+ harvests and only one hermie, in fact i don't think there was ever a mention of hermies in this thread.

either way, you're right in one aspect, that reverse stuff is pretty much only for hermies, the dutch master site stipulates that the product won't change males to females. so that's that

do a little research, ive seen some talk of birth control pills having sumthing to do with female ratio and with growth pattern.......... smoking estrogen could have sumthing along the lines of what happens to little girls fed hormone enthused meats......wouldnt do it. ORGANICS ftw

hmm, each time i heard anything about birth control i never believed it.

ftw, free the whales?

15+ harvests and you still think you can do some voodoo magic to change the sex of a seed?

wow, voodoo magic, you're really trying to sound cool

it was just a simple misunderstanding about a product i once heard about

and again: people seem to notice things that aren't said, there was never a mention of seeds in this thread, nice try

I ran a strain for 3 grows that originated from fem'd seeds & each time I had Hermies - and I used the Reverse w/ penetrator as listed on the containers and each time it didn't work as advertised. IMHO the stuff is high priced snake oil. And it's intended purpose is to kill the male flowers, not to stop seed development (although that would be the end result).

right then, that's good to know. the more research i did the more sketchy this product seemed.

As best I can tell he has had a total of two whole posts on that website & neither appear to contain groundbreaking information.
And he's a tad illiterate & loose with the spelling.
I think I'll stick to published experts.

The chemical you are referring to is called Gibberillic Acid or GA. It is used as a seed soak to feminize seeds at low ppm's. It is also sprayed on foliage to bush up a plant but does not increase feminity at this stage. If you are only talking about increasing female ratios after pre-flowering I don' think you will find anything that will work. Mother nature will give you 50/50 so be patient.
