Did anyone ever grow out that SHAQ CANDY - (Alien Rock Candy x 1992 Florida OG Kush) released last year?
I was bummed not to get any but I just bought a pack of the Alien Rock Candy @ auction on IG and was curious how she does.

So, yesterday I received a call from Portland Oregon. When I checked my voicemail it was from Phylos Bioscience, inquiring about how my growing season is going. :shock:
I must have given them my # when I registered over there a few months ago.
I have spent a bit of time looking at the strain universe on there site.
I bring this up because Phylos Bioscience offers a kit that tells you the sex of the seed. It ain't cheap, but if you just have to know, they will help.

On another note. What happens if you find a male, not just any male, but a Mr Universe qualifying male and you run him through a battery of stress tests.
I.e., light leaks, high ferts, high and low temps, root cropping etc.
Once you've found this male to be as solid as a statue, with not even one girly pistil and then you administer STS to him and force him to sit and pee. Would the S1's of this Male be 100% male?

I'm sure you know where I'm going with this. :peace:

you can't reverse a male. you can prevent male flowers from forming with some products, but it won't make female flowers, those products only useful for preventing hermies

I dont think it works like this.sts or CS blocks ethylene production in whatever part of the plant you put it on and forces the female to produce sacks.i dont think you can force a male into a female.im not a scientist and someone may have a more scientific answer but I'm pretty sure this is how it works

You can definitely reverse males and it is a great method to figure out what exactly you are working with for breeding.

i saw people mention for this coco growers as well. it was noted that you might want to grab a bag of their cal-mag if so. i will just use some liquid cal-mag if i feel it's needed. also have epsom i can use.
Click to expand...
The thing is the Cal levels are where they should be. The magnesium is low. By using a cal/mag your introducing more nitrogen(which is already high for flowering) and unneeded calcium. Right? Sorry this is a ? In statement form the grammer nazis here are going to slaughter me.

The hang up im having with this "fix" is your adjusting to more accurate npk ratios for flowering (the good) but still have excessive nitrogen within those ratios unless you cut back on the recommended dosage (lowering all macro and micro nutrient levels including the N) and add the pk booster. But then all of the chelated minerals, cal, mag, etc are running at lower (less desirable) levels. Theres quite a bit of research that has found excessive nitrogen decreases yield in crops but doesnt always show burn. Im using MC this go around for the first time but am now thinking i might have to use another nut for weeks 4 on for maximization in future rotations. Only time will tell i guess.

Whatever they use to reverse males is discussed on the potcast episode featuring Nspecta. Floral something or another. Matt Riot says something on his episode as well. I cant remember for shit.
