I gotta agree, I've never heard of adding estrogen to plants. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense, since us humans are far different from plants. I don't even think plants produce testostrone, and estrogen.
I've read a couple of books, and they have not said anything of adding pills, or anything like that.
The only thing you can do is buy feminized seeds, and even that is at your own risk. These seeds have a high female chance, but you can still end up with hermaphrodites, and even males.
Goodluck with the grow, and your pills. Keep us posted, and welcome to RIU : ]

o well just got some seeds off a m8 wen i got a bit a sitty solid lol if ma babys male fuk it it il start again cheers all thought it was bs... he did say he saw it in the dam but it was a 1st for me hearing it

You can alter some things in the environment to change the chance of fem. like lighting and nutes, I think less light in veg. equals more fem. along with higher P than N in your nutes. Not sure of them off the top of my head tho srry : ]

All I know is this - I take a drug called Premarin because I need Hormone Replacement Therapy. Premarin is a conjugated estrogen that is made from pregnant mare urine, hence the name Premarin. I take one every morning and when my plants are in the vegetative stage, I fertilize them once with a solution made with a pill dissolved in it. They absolutely go crazy - I have tried it with and without and I can definitely tell a difference. I may do a little photo study and post the results if anyone is interested. The other thing I have done is to drink a ton of water and then mix a cup of urine in with the solution in my reservoir. The estrogen and nitrogen make my plants downright bushy and when they go in to flower, the white hairs on the blooms are almost as big around as a matchstick. This did not start happening until I made the Premarin adjustment. For what it's worth .
