I have to disagree with the entire underlying premise of this article. There is no such thing as a 'cross between male & female plants'. There are 5 categories of Phytohormones, from which sex expression is regulated. This is why chemicals work to influence (NOT change) the sex of seeds...aka 'feminization'. Sex is like a secondary color on the color wheel....say 'purple'. Add more red, less blue...its not the same purple. When blue is nearly gone, you say hey 'that's red!'...when red is gone, hey 'that's blue!' --but SEX is just the *current* ratio of phytohormone expression. This accounts for late 'bananas' being thrown, and even rare example of both male & female flowers on the same plant. ***please consider researching and re-writing this article*** thanks!

@Psilocubensis, Thanks! Since they only spent one week in the 2.5qt pots, I wasnt expecting much visible side-rooting. Next transplant I will look for them pretty much stitched up with roots all around, but in wildly swinging weather I needed them in safer/larger containers as fast as they would support it. Have a look at the Nanda Devi and you can see I am also dealing with intentionally poor soil mixes for Himalayan native strains. I am intentionally *not* following general grow methods for my landrace adventures, though the Sinai isnt acting like a landrace.
