I'm finishing one AK48 right now. There's no tricks to make more females just luck of the draw. I planted 3 AK and got 1 female. I planted 3 ice along with it and got all 3 female on those. I have to go in and water today might try to get a couple pics.

oh right, i heard someone once say if you put the lights on whilst there in dark period for an hour it has a better chance of being a female lol.

yea if you have any pics to show would be good.

Ok yeah I dont know about any tricks and stuff like that. I just try to keep everything as close to nature as possible. I veg a strict 18/6 and flower 12/12. When the lights are off, they're off. No light leaks and no poking at them too much. Just feed, watch for certain things, and let them go.

Heres a pic of the AK. Nothing special just looks like another plant. I cant take any pics farther away to show the whole thing because my tent is pretty crowded. Maybe before I chop them Ill take full body shots.

The ethylene gas given off by the ripening fruit increases the female ratio. Make sure that you have the banana (or the peel) wrapped in paper towels and the seeds in a paper bag or envelope. Then put them both in a sealed plastic gallon size bag, on opposite ends. Check them every day to make sure the seeds are not getting too moist or they may start to germinate. Change out the banana every few days. Do this for 2-3 weeks prior to germination and you will get more females. I think it even helps to have a banana placed next to your seedlings.

Compliments of Oldpork from grassscity.com, I have never done this but this guy knows what he is doing for sure. I've heard it'll give ya about 85% female ratio.

Nice plant. How big did you grow it till you changed onto 12/12????
And how big has it grown???

A trick i may try on my next grow as ive already germinated all of my seeds and planted them. But thanks for the tip though

I think I vegged for about a month. It was like 1 month 10 days-ish from seed. Ive got a journal going, but it doesn't really focus on one plant. I'd say they almost tripled in size from veg. I had others blast up and hit the top of my 6.5' tent. The AK stayed at a good managable size.

Yea i have had a look at your blog. I have the seeds on the go now under a florecent light. And then when they are a good size i will be putting them under 2 600w lights
