If you are looking for some seeds so you can keep the strain going without purchasing new seeds and you end up with two females. Why not try to stress one a little into going hermie. That way you get your own feminized seeds? Or if you have a male save the pollen sacs in bags, then tie the bag around just a small bud site. So you get seeds but the rest of the flowers are not affected. I'm sure that would help keep the potency up while still giving you seeds. This would also prevent your case from having pollen stuck to it and possibly pollinating later harvest on accident.

I heard giving them a little kick or a poke works, maybe fuck with there lights, but only by like an hour or so, and some guy suggested giving your plants little nicks (slivers) or pressing a small thumbtack through the bottompeice of a stem, but these were for bigger plants. I'll try and find the thread but i cant remmember what it was called.

Good to hear DW. Glad the 2nd one is deciding to do some work.

If the show that they are both female. After they've established some flowers, you could take one out before lights out and give it some extra light. This is they only way I can think of to stress it without physically damaging the plant. So I also assume it's the least stressful way. Remember stress is bad so if you can accomplish something with the least amount of stress the better.

Good to hear the plants have started putting out DW.
I have no skills in seed production but as above, messing with the light schedules is the usual way hermies show. Just be careful with that pollen.

rho and v thanks for the comments. rho i got the pc case free um i have the reciepts for everything so i may post a list later but i send less than 200 dollars on it and it works great. i dpnt thionk you need to spend 1100 thats overkill. its like a glorafied version of mine. i say build your own but if your the lazy and rich then buy one.

hey green thumb thanks for the comment yes im using 23watt 2700k. im using 4 of them and each one gives off 1600 lum. so if you did the 8 watts it would give you one 23 watt pretty much. but if you have room for 2 more bulbs go with all 23 watts, the more lumes the better. i have an update coming in 5 min.
