I read that.
You need to read all 20 pages......The relationship given for seed germination is not correlated to sexual determination.....The use of the ethylene in correlation to sexual determination was in the seedling stage as tested.

You jumped to a conclusion by reading 2 pages of 20.....

Doc
That's what the thread is about, seedlings, if you read my posts I'm saying to put the green bananas in with seedlings before they show sex , wow hahahaha

I did not say anything about seeds I said seedlings so basically you have backed what I'm saying
You are correct, I mistook your point for BDOG's - stating seeds are effected by ethylene!

MY BAD!

I'm sorry, and yes I back what you are saying,,,,,BUT, how can they list a percentage as changed? They have no Idea what the resulting ratio would have been with out it!!!

Doc ;-) ;-) :oops:

I am unsure of any effects on seeds because I personally haven't tried it, but I am sure of the effect on seedlings before they show sex because that's what I personally have always done, I only post what I have done myself on here so I know it works, then most people tell me I'm an idiot Hahaha but I know it works that's The only reason I argue back with some members basically they are calling me a liar when everything I post is something I have actually done to see if it works

Right on! But the thing I'm having a problem with is any effect on seeds as in the 12th point on your list suggests.....I can find no science behind it (ethylene) effecting seeds....
oh yeah i agree with you i didnt look to hard myself and wont because it really isnt worth it to me but i was just saying it might be possible but i really doubt it is feasible and wouldnt like fungus nats anywhere in my rooms

Hello guys.

I have use the banana method not on the seeds but when the plant was at 4-5 week from seed.
The first time it was in one pot 3 seeds from my breeding (regular seeds), at the end all the seeds was female.
At my second try on the same method 15 seeds in a diferents pots ,10 of them was girls.

It works !!!

Just clean with a spoon the banana to leave only the flesh..when the plant is on the 4-5 week or 5-6 node place it on the top of the soil.change the banana when is turn black,do this for 2-3 times and thats it!
