4 out of 4 were males....
What environmental factors do i need to correct? they were other wise very healthy. No visual defects, grew almost 3 feet in 6 weeks and very bushy topped only once.

I have 5gal pots with foxfarm soil fed with foxfarm nutes every other watering (following their feeding schedule). Plenty of CO2, ph is 6.3........ uhhhh 400w mh for veg 400w hps for flower. let me know if you need to know anything else.

Or am I just that unlucky.....:spew:

there are actually methods of improving female chances. here are the known methods:
(and using all these techniques i get about 75% female)
a high nitrogen fertilizer increases chance of female
75-80º constant temp increases chance of female
higher humidity (70-80º) increases chance of female
18/6 light cycle increases chance of female.

i know it may sound ridiculous, but given my experience with it, and having much success, id have to say it works. but be careful with the humidity... when you go into flowering lower it to 40-50% because bud mold is very likely at high humidity levels.
