ouch, we got a good ratio on the mothers milk. Have u tried dj shorts method to increase the amount of females? My friend put me onto it, just tried it out with a pack of super silver temple. It involves low nitrogen in early days and also a 12/5/1/6 light cycle. my friend swears it helps him always get good female ratios, i will let u know how it goes for me.
I've heard also that as well as low N in the early days; higher levels of K and higher RH% with lower temps. The direct opposite can be true as well. You may see more males because of higher temps , lower humidity, not enough K, and high N can induce male tendencies.. I'll try to find some articles....

I haven't heard about the light cycle thing! Interesting! Thanks @limonene

Another note I am 2/3 female with the Dank Sinatra... The fat indica dom is for sure a boy... I believe it leans to the affie if I am correct.. gonna hit this strawberry goji for sure... Aroma is unmistakably strawberry!!!!

Very interesting!! I live in the desert! Battle high temps and low rh all the time! I use a weaked all purp soil for the early stages so these is a decent amt of N. Also have em under 24hrs light bcuz nursary and veg rooms all on one room. Sounds like i def may be encouraging males here!! This is great info guys inappreciate it! May just be onto something here...

Also I run veg 16-18 hours a day tops.. I notice my plants are happier when they get to sleep. There's still a lot of action going on at night.

I got my first round of goji and mothers milk bout 3 weeks from sprout. Looks like only 1/11 females on the mm:wall:. Got 4 goji left to sex... Please send fem thots n vibes!
It's just random luck like in Vegas, but it seems you can ask the house for a better hand by generally avoiding any source of stress for the seedlings especially in the two-three week period starting from the third set of leaves.

Here's some tips from Dutch Passion on how to increase the probability of females:

"From literature and our own findings it appears that the growth of a male or female plant from seed, except for the predisposition in the gender chromosomes, also depends on various environmental factors. The environmental factors that influence gender are:

1. Higher nitrogen concentration will give more females.
2. Fewer hours of light will give more females.
3. Higher humidity will give more females.
4. Lower temperature will give more females.
5. More blue light will give more females.
6. Higher potassium concentration will give more males.

Also, some people have other techniques for skewing the probability in favor of more females, for instance, exposing the seeds to ethylene gas from ripening bananas for a couple of weeks is supposed to actually feminized the seeds to the max allowed by the chromosomes.

Hope this helps

Thanks bro! She's my lil sweetie pie, my best friend.

I could never be mad at her, especially when she was just trying to "self medicate" haha.
Same here bro I love my blue nose to death and so does my daughter. I was heated she ate up my seedlings but got over it popped some more seeds and forgot all about it. Like you said she never touches my plants but she has been a lil neglected on attention since the baby arrived so I'm pretty sure it was her way of letting me know hey I'm here too :) she my baby tho just trying to get back into the groove of everything growing new baby and all. It's slowly coming together I'm running on fumes :lol:

She surely topped those Jabbas pretty good :) those are gonna bush out and grow into some nice plants watch. Lots of tops on them and when you harvest them thank her for how good they look :)

Thats great info. On the super silver temple i put the lights to basically 12/12 from seed but with 1 hour light in the dark period to see if this helps coax out more girls. They were fine for first 2 weeks but after that their development was hindered so now they have gone to 18/6.

OK so I know Amos likes the Gogi OG best.. what is everyone's favorite all time Bodhi strain? Maybe top 3 from past and present? Taking into account these characteristics or any that are important to you...example characteristics are Flavor. Yield. Potency. Bag appeal. Length of flower. Easy growing. Height. Mold resistant.

The light cycle you tried is the gas lantern routine for putting plants into a perpetual veg state. Shouldn't make a lick of difference to the outcome sexually.
I use that routinely myself and average is really 50/50 no matter what.

I've only grown two Bodhi strains so far but that will change this year as I have plenty of Bodhi to run. Hands down Hashplant 3 was the best. Straight chem fuely dank nugs with light hints of citrus earthy hashy pure funk. Not a major yielded but not low either taste superb just like straight Chem with lil added notes of citrus and earthiness. So mad I lost my keeper. The Sweet Skunk x 88g13/hp was good and I only had one pheno but very good day time meds nothing like a knockout how Hashplant 3 was. Reminds me I forgot to post pics of that Sweet Skunk x 88g13/hp. I think that may go as freebies or limited strain since he lost the mom
