You missed the point. It's not the first seeds I bought. It the next generation of seeds bred from them. Original seeds were like 50 - 50. I just checked another 2 plants... also both male. Something weird is going on.

I know, but while I'm waiting for the numbers game I thought I would just ask to see if anyone heard of the all male concept.

Why would they do that? Maybe because I started with 8x regular seeds and now I have well over 400x. The same reason why Monsanto makes their seeds produce infertile plants. Return sales.

I bought some automatic seeds in regular form, so male and females included. I pollinated some plants of the same strain this way to get heaps of seeds. Some seeds have popped up by themselves where the females were grown. So far, 3 out of 3 plants which have shown gender are all male. Is it...

Ah yes I forgot about newspaper pots. That's the true old school technique. Soil plugs are good too, but I'd prefer if they were a little larger just in case the tap root or what not gets too big before I'm ready to plonk it in a pot. As for cutting out of a plastic cup, that's kinda fiddly...

I have a nasty habit of picking at shells... I always think to myself "just leave it, you're going to break the thing".... while plucking at it anyway...

I'm using bio degradable pots for this reason. Things like this: I just bought some el cheapo ones yesterday from a discount store, but currently am using brand name ones too. My only concern is the roots still feeling root bound. They go soggy and soft soon enough, especially when placed in...

It's starting to mold. Try finding each flower cluster (will have a main stem each cluster) and fan the denser buds out a bit. It's possible that when you get into the grooves like this that you actually find where it is molding (which will look brown or black). Keep in mind you will be losing...

Inside the tiny cup, I think it would be such a pain to get the PH and nutrient strength right. For hydro though, here is an idea: Tiny clay balls in cup -> Drains out the bottom into hose -> Water returns to reservoir -> Pumped back to the top to drip down through the clay balls again so...

'Greenhouse' is a fairly general term used a lot. I'm not an expert on them, but I do know there can be a lot of difference between one cover and another. Some 'greenhouses' are used for seedlings or plants that need part or full shade. These will have a darker/more light absorbing cover. This...

Oh yeah, but just wait until you actually get it too. Maybe it's not really sent.

Do the right thing man; don't steal. If you get the package, make sure you pay the poor blighters the money due. Make it their lucky day that someone didn't snatch their hand bag... or take their stock without paying. ;)

1) Change from the MH to HPS light when you see the flowering begin 2) Light hours is personal choice. Since it flowers regardless of light hours, the theory is that longer than 12-12 will delivery more energy, so more growth. I've seen some speculate though that if there is no down period the...

Few ways you can change it. 1) No roots outside pot, or they go into air or 2) No water or air pumps to interact with the roots outside of the pot (so maybe still letting the roots inside to have flow or bubbling (if perlite/rocks/etc) or something). This would mean that roots shouldn't reach...

I'm not trolling. He said the roots can go into another container of water. See my next post above about how this other container can be hydroponic. If the roots can exit, it defeats the purpose of the small cup. The way to win would be to make the exiting roots the real source of growth I'm...
