Saw this posted on anther forum while doing some of my "toasted" research..thought this interesting at the least and wonder if any of the OG's on this site have any experience with any of these method
"Treatment of hempseed with ethylene gas will increase the resulting number of female plants by about 50%. Ethylene is produced by certain plants (i.e., bananas, cucumbers and melons), and these can be used to treat hempseed in a simple manner. About two weeks before you plan to sprout the seeds, place them in a paper bag or envelope and put that in a plastic bag with the peels of a ripening banana or cucumber. Replace the peels after a couple of days, and change the bags to prevent mould.
- When hempseed is treated with the female hormone oestrogen, percentage of females that are produced will increase by about 10%. Dissolve a birth control pill in water and soak the seeds overnight in the solution. After the initial soaking, continue to treat the seeds by sprouting them on a paper towel soaked in the solution"
quote also mentioned 100% female when young seedlings exposed to carbon monoxide...(errrr im thinking deadly gas....lol) for several hours...im no scientist by a long shot so chime in anyone with some inputDaRookie123:bong:
