12-21-21 5 f1 adf x ss, everything was watered, the 2 looser/ more open plants that have longer internodal stems and the mother ADF to be BC got 600 ml the 3 fls that are denser got only 300ml.
12-23-21 sexed f1s of adf x ss have 2 obvious females they happen to be the less dense thinner ones I thought (& hoped were male wanted the more open type for high humidity) 1 obvious male and 1 maybe male, only one node with tiny possibly male preflowers one ball each.
12-25-21 finshed sexing f1s, 4 female including the possible herm, emasculated the 2 suspect male buds rest of plant showing only female flowers, other 3 females are tied down. the male f1 ADF x SS using as father in BC was cut back to 2 branchs and too the other 2 branches stuck in water to try rooting as well as trying for viable pollen off plant. but the last female with possible herming will be HST/super cropped to stress her as much as possible and will continue to monitor for males signs, if she herms she will be culled.
feminization on vegging plants? Has anyone tried colloidal silver to feminze seed using only preflowers on vegging plants? I am looking to try this method (and keep a diary) on Margelo to get small amounts of seed on vegging gals.
you have a cool project going on i'm also doing a regular round right now but i have no plan at all i'm just hoping for a nice male that smells good or something and i'm doing some f1 regular seeds but why do u saying 95% a male isnt it 50%?? I'm confused😧
Happy growing
@JaramnieJazz, Thank you. Yes the occurrence of males in regular seed is a 50% chance per seed. so with 1 seed its 50/50 male or female. same if you plant 2 seeds each has a 50/50 chance as individuals of being either male or female. but statics find us the odds or chance of those 50/50 odds. so the more seeds you plant the higher the chance of finding your 50/50 male. with 5 seeds planted its 95% likely at least one will be either male or female. 7 seeds gives us 99% chance of at least 1 out of 7 being the opposite of the 50/50. in other words 7 coin tosses in a row gives 99% chances of tails. I don't know how to put a pic in comments so look in the dairy for a pic of a chart giving the number of plants needed for each odds ratio common in breeding.
