Oh no. Male buds. But do you need him? Cool photo.

Looks like the pic posted back in 2009, are you still working on male to female?

Have you or others determined if YY males are viable? Non-sterile? If so, has there been an attempt at a pure XY seedline?

Did you ever get the test results back on your reversed skunk #1 male and did it show anything interesting or unexpected?


Any change from the below procedure or from the Bayer ethephon product?


Very cool stuff.

1 ml per liter of water, sprayed 3 times, first time first day of flowering, second a week later, third a week later. Try not to spray all the leaves as it will kill them, just spray the areas where sexual traits will show.
Here is the male plant at just over 3 weeks flowering. It first started to make male flowers then they turned mostly female, over 90%.
I will see how good the flowers turn out.

This same picture is in post #105 from that thread dated 2009, so I'm wondering if Sam is still playing around with the method and any new progress, or just sharing an old unique pic for those that haven't seen it before...


Either way, interesting and that thread ^^ is well worth a read just for curiosity.

I had a Supa Fly (SSH x Flo) do that a few grows ago. It showed male pre-flowers and then started as a male plant starting flower and them started putting out nothing but female flowers. After a week and a half it never had another male flower but was full blown female with colas about 3/4s the size of the other plants, at the end of flower.

Whoa!


I have never seen it that pronounced before, like full on sex change!


I have had one male Sweet Tooth#3 turn girly on me about 10 years or so ago, actually managed to make a seed on his own, but didn't ever flower properly.
