LIGHT-POISONING METHOD: During the first three weeks of flowering, turn the lights on for an hour during the middle of the dark period. That is, 12 hrs. on, 5.5 hrs. off, 1 hr. on, 5.5 hrs. off, and repeat for the first 3 weeks, after which you may return to the normal 12/12 light cycle. This causes a plant to go "hermie" and pollinate itself, as well as any other female in the room. You must use plants originating only from female seeds or clones to ensure that no male chromosomes are present. The resulting seeds will produce NO MALE PLANTS!
It says to introduce this method during the first 3 weeks of flowering, but it does not specify how many days to do this. Should you start flowering and go 21 days, then interrupt the light cycle once a week or something? I'm a little confused. I have no male plants, and I would like to keep some seeds of one strain. I don't want to grow it for a while and I don't have the space to keep cloning. Could someone help me on this? Thanks.
