I have the Jorge Cervantes grow bible and he says that : when you keep reverting a plant from veg to flower back to veg back to flower, it will weakend the genetics and he recommends never reverting from flower back to veg.

He also says that a clone off a plant is the same age as the mother so when you clone you are really starting a plant with more THC content, thus making it stronger.

I'm trying a thing where I take the top out of the plant and clone it. Once the clone is showing vertical growth I go ahead and put the mom into flower. I keep getting males, but one of these days I'll get a female and then I will just keep topping and cloning that and putting the mom in flower. I'm hoping in a few years to have some really strong shit.





My mom is more than 5 (clone of a clone) reading about genetic drift. Does anyone have a mom that old?

So your clones turn male? Are you sure the mother is female? :shock:

Shoot I feel real lucky about the male thing.. had 1 in 6 years and approx 100 seedlings.. must be something environmental here... I don't get it.. I'd say that I'd not mind 1 or 2 so I could get seeds... but don't want to jinx....... shit, did I just say that out loud...? damn it...!!! just screwed my mojo..... :o:o

No the mothers turn male, I clone before I know the gender because I don't want to revert back to veg from taking a clone while in flower. I clone, then discover gender.


1 Male in 6 years? Twisty, dude, I want a list of your products and care schedule........

This makes me feel much better she has only been preflowered 1 time. Good mamma Grapefruit, Clone only is over. 5 years of my time, hope this is all worth it.
5 years later stable strain that can be seed grown....

Too bad you guys/gals aren't near by..I could start some and overnight them to you..........

I am so old I might have wrote the book and forgot:)
old is a state of mind.......

I also get about 50/50 on the male - female ratio. :evil:
As HM said... old age is a privilege denied many... fairly profound...

We watched a move called "Timber Falls" pretty twisted film, we liked it. :mrgreen:
Watched breastmen.. with David Schwimmer.. its about the Dr's that invented implants... Lots of boobies.. emily proctor from CSI miami..
Actually its a good movie about the problems with inventing/changing ideals/silicon issues..etc.. and the era..60's and up...

the male/female ratio is the luck of draw I believe. I bought white widow from bcbd and 9 of 10 were male. I let the 1 female go to seed I got 5 out of 5 from those seeds. the afghan mafia I grew was all female.

:shock: 9 out of 10 were male :o I'd be pissed. 50% males is really starting to piss me off.

Eventually I'll get a stock of females and be working off of clones. Sure takes a long time to get there though.
