Hello Sam, JLP.
Do you guys still work with ethylene on males? Any news?
I've tried 2ml/l and 8 ml/l on 2 clones of a very vigorous Thai male and on 2 clones of a very hardy Ak47.
With not much success. The Plants started to show pistils around the end of week 2 but didn't produce enough female flower to smoke before they withered and died after ~5 weeks.
I expected the Thai to be more resillient, since it never stops growing in the first 6 weeks of flower (3 inches/day!). Even the AK47 which can take a lot of abuse without much growth impairment just yellowed and dropped it's leaves.
It seems the growth-retardant property of ethylene application is hard to work around.
