STS on Male plants?

[Iearnit]

What would be the results of spraying an STS mix on a male cannabis plant. Will there still be equal distribution of male /female pollen, or maybe all female?

Some breeders reverse males to see which ones will pass on desirable flowering traits to their offspring.

STS is not how you reverse a male, you need something else but I forget it's name. STS works by blocking the female flower hormone I believe, so that won't work for reversing a male.

Breeding with 707 SeedBank

Come take a journey with me while I breed my Potion D Amour. Potion D Amour is Forbidden Fruit x Kush Cleaner. The green pheno's have all the flavor of the Forbidden Fruit with the punch of the Kush Cleaner. Unfortunately, only about 10% are green and the others go purple. The purples ones...

STS will not cause male plants to develop female flowers.

Ethephon is what you're looking for.

Florel is 4% ethephon.

You can buy it in pure form if you're in the US. I don't know about other countries.

Sorry to highjack thread, but Im a long time grower and haven't ever really had any herm issues until 2 days ago. I heard Reverse by Dutch Masters was the go to back in the day but now Florel is the way to go. Whats your experience using it, mix rates, ph etc??? TIA
