Alors moi ca m'a pris 2 ou 3 semaines avant réversion complete , mais j'ai utiliser du nitrate d'argent et du thiosulfate de sodium melangés a de l'eau distillé. J'ai donc pu poliniser un clone d'auto avec ce poléne. En cherchant bien sur google et le site cannaweed tu vera que beaucoup d'autres ont tester l'argent coloidale avec plus ou moins de réussite , tout semble etre une question de dosage

Hi @Michka! Colloidal Silver won't reverse a male to female, its purpose is only to block the female's hormones, forcing females to grow as reversed males. You should spray a female plant, or parts of this female plant, to develop pollen sacs and get a self-pollinated plant that will give you feminized seeds. Hope this helps, I'll be around, keep us up-to-date and good luck with your experiments!

Harvest or wait longer? See microscope images on week 12 and bud pics. 10% amber under the microscope. To me, just looking at the bud with my naked eye, I'd say wait a little longer as all the hairs have not all curled in yet. Also, please comment in the comment section too.

At what age would you guys start defoliation and how often would you trim? She's getting bushy and I'm tucking leaves but it's just not cutting it.

As I move further into flower and the buds are starting to put on a bit of weight, Should I start to slowly defoliate some of the larger fan leaves? Heard some very varied opinions on this but havent seen massive impact either way.
