How Many Nodes Before Topping?

How about a few of those seeds mate? Lol. Doesnt matter if they arent feminised, I can separate males from females on a 90% success before I even germinate them. Still get a few males but no where near as many. Out of 10 seeds I may get 1 or 2 males with my method.
You should work for a seed bank then.......you will save em a small fortune in feminizing treatments
and he wont even give me any..

Actual feminised seeds are 99.5-99.9% female, a bit better odds. Usually no males. I am going to produce my own fem seeds. Theres two methods. I dont want him to give them to me, ill buy them. Most fems average $10-$12 per seeds after shipping. Ill pay $60 for 3 seeds to hopefully ensure I get one female. OR I could pay the money and share my little seed trick to boost my odds of getting a female. Worth a shot! Lol

Your link didnt work. I have never got a male from feminised seeds. Im new to hydro but ive been growing for 20 years, 12 on a serious note. Until I actually feminise seeds myself the only thing I have to go off of education wise is info on the internet. Just as much bad information as good but those are the percentages I have found.

I can understand him not wanting to give away or sell anything. I crossed my own exotic strain of hot pepper and I wont share it with anyone and if I give or sell peppers I remove the seeds which the seeds wont produce the exact strain anyway it has to be cloned. I always have plants and clones because if something happened it would take me 2 years again to create the strain.

99.5-99.9% female? Your on drugs. http://www.cannabisculture.com/content/2008/8/21/truth-about-feminized-seeds You seem to be new to growing, which is cool and fantastic but allot of what you say is just plain incorrect.



and as i said he doesnt give away (or sell) seeds or clones. Its his baby and his "life". Always happy to share smoko but never gives stuff away or sells.
I am on drugs a little bit, arent we all? Lol. I copied and pasted your link. Dont be offended but I dont think I believe it. 3 reasons, 1. Ive read in many places fem seeds are higher percentages 2. Ive never had a male from fem seeds & 3. Ive never had a hermie from fem seeds. Ive only seen a hermaphrodite maybe 3 times that I can recall in my life. Little known fact, almost all females will grow male pollen sacs if left in flower long enough and not harvested. That is one way of getting fem seeds but it ruins a whole plant of lovely sticky buds. Using colloidal silver is another way, and not the drinkable supplement. Real colloidal silver, much stronger and not drinkable. With it you can isolate 1 or 2 or however many buds you wish. Those buds cannot be consumed in anyway. Only the seeds collected then the buds pitched

Time to resurrect some Opinions on UB's method for 4 tops vs just topping off node 5 and then l.s.t. for even canopy (more than 4)? Considering minimal veg time is preferable

BTW, I am all about learning and using one's own knowledge to grow successfully. I understand a degree in horticulture would make for a higher quality of meds. But a huge amount of new growerz use cfl lighting and miracle gro products. They want to grow now, not get horticulture and advanced botany lessons...know what I sayin?
My homie feeds his plants miracle grow soil, bat guano and water. He grows some of the tastiest buds I ever smoked.

Is there any body still on here?

I have a few questions ... I found a plant , it was under our dumpster, how ever the trash truck moved the dumpster.. I took the trash out 2 days later and find it ECT.. That was on the 30 of June 2019.. The top of the plants leaves where, yellow, starting to fade, I waited unroll the sun went down and cooled off pretty good before diging it up.. It as 5 nodes counting where I topped it at..
