Speaking from personal experience the number one cause of intersex has been high temps. Most people would see the amount of light that leaks into my grow and have a conniption but I see very little intersex issues. Only time I’ve found seeds in an all female run is when I let the temps spike up into the 95-100 degree zone for a couple days before installing an AC.

Just about to chop the NL-1/stardawg x skunk freebie from AKBB, 67 days in. Thing smells rank; skunk, burned rubber and overall nastiness. Big hard flowers and super easy to grow. No sign of intersex but will be on look out during trim.

I ran the stardawg/nl1-ss as well, no intersex issues with mine. Had one skunk and one stardawg leaner, both were great.

Yeah I ran some Lucky Dog Guerilla Fume', Katsu Black Lime Bubba, Crickets and Cicadas Black Muddy River, Cannarado Birthday Pie and 707 OG and no herm problems with any of those. The only ones I've had herm on me is the AKBB TKLNL5Haze, Golden Showers and Black Velvet has a few male flowers that I only found while trimming. The TKNL5Haze and Golden Showers were loaded with bananas and immature seeds.
Thanks for the heads up on the tknl5haze. I've had enough of herms and seeds for a while. I'll be kiciking some BPS along with a diesel and a chem bx into flower in a couple weeks. Following that I have Gooey Mom x Gooey Mom/Duke's C99. Bought one pack a while back and wish I would have bought more. Anyway I'll not be getting to anymore AKBB for a bit.

How did you like the guerrila fume? I have a pack of that in the fridge. Also what about the 707 OG? I've heard good things about them but have never grown any of the gear but I do have a pack of 707 cat piss I been meaning to get to.

how was the BlacK Lime Bubba? I've run pre98 and 2 Black lime I planted didn't germinate. I was really bummed because now I only have one seed left. Thank you.

The Guerilla Fume' is some of the best I've grown in a long time. That taste is just so good. I keep going back hitting it just for the taste, even though I'm baked... my son does the same thing. The 707 OG is really good too. Not quite as strong at the Guerilla Fume' but very good. I had no luck at all with the 707 Catpiss. I have a friend who ran it too and had the same luck I had. Very slow growth. Between the two of us, we grew three packs of it and didn't get much for our effort. So that was $600 down the drain.

I keep my temps in the upper 70s and lower 80s all the time. One thing someone mentioned to me was maybe overfeeding, so I started some more TKNL5Haze and will be cutting back on the nutes to see if that helps. It's pretty frustrating when I see others on here having no problems with it and I can't figure out why I'm having so much trouble with it. I have no light leaks, and keep my environment as pleasant as I can. The only other plants I've ever had problems with intersex was some of the Mr. Nice stuff back in the early 2000s when he just go out of jail. His Shit was great, but most everything else of his I'd ran didn't work out so well. I thought maybe it was just the Haze in a lot of his strains, but I grew some other Haze that turned out really nice. I can't remember the breeder but I ran some Fumar Con Dios that was outstanding. Wish I still had some of that.

Which one are you running? F2, F3?

Sorry to hear your luck on the catpiss but thanks for the info. I really appreciate the word on the guerilla fume. I should push that up the line. I have a bumbling buddy who managed to get a couple twin peaks to finish in nice shape. Of course I haven't gotten to sample any of that scarce fucker's weed! I can't speak to it personally as I haven't seen him since he harvested but the pics he sent me looked nice.

You'll likely find him sitting in a corner drooling with a blank look on his face hahaha.... The Guerilla Fume' is really strong. I'm going to try to get a few more Lucky Dog crosses in my collection soon.

@Bakersfield You remember much about the PHK bx? I'm 28 days into flower today. I noticed you had some giant colas on your tester. Mine started out with these miniature little buds, but they have been steadily putting on weight. The NL1/Big Skunk came out of the gate hot and has been putting on weight since day 1.
I had the pack grown in the periphery of the garden.
They stretched more than I expected with very little branching.
2 main colas were nice, with some unusual stink and fruit. The others were nothing to write home about.
They did seem to start to stack a bit later than most strains, but did finish up in 9 weeks.

@HGC always looking forward to your pics of those donkey D girls, here and on the Gram

Did anyone get Big Bud x Blueberry freebies from AKBB around last winter/spring? I popped the 5 I had gotten, seeking more for a project. AKBB said he prob has more but doesn't know where they are.
