Yup.......La femme and Dutch Masters Feminizer are two that i have used.

DOes anyone know if these work?? And if they do, when/how r u supposed to use em?

 

The guys i'm livin wit at the moment got 1 plant growin in a pot, from seed, but we're not sure if it's gonna be male or female, at the moment i'd say it's about 30cm tall, maybe a bit shorter.

Doubtful, the sex is determined before the seed is fully formed. the best way I know to get all females is to use clones.

I did'nt have much luck with La Femme but using the Dutch Master Femminizer in conjunction with the Dutch Master Penetrator all worked out well. The five males i used it on changed to females within a five week period.

 

The Penetrator unlocks the gates of the cuticle on the leaf surface which allows the Feminiser into the plants system

 

Foliar spray and then repeat two weeks later. I should have (hindsight) cloned from the five males after they turned to see if the change was permanent.

 

With your one plant, using these products could be cost prohibitive as they both come in 1litre containers.

I have to agree with what Tom said....I tried using La femme but half of my plants still ended up being males.

 

Ever had a fish type smell come from your females ?

Try using FEM FRESH.....worked wonders on an old tart I used to go out with

Hey OzStoners,I would Say I have to agree with Tom's Statement on getting clones,I have tried La-Femme Myself and got mainly males from seed then i just changed thinking and started growing from Known Female clones and the results have meant no worrying about males and just nice females to concentrate resources on.

g'day; best method of gettin fem is to grow minimum 2 plants.

i grew males and hermies for 4 consecutive years until a friend suggested i grow 2 near each other, i grew 1 male 1 fem.i think they like company;)

1 plant by itself has good chance of being hermie or male.

Bonza Bud is good product that can help increase chance of fems, i use it often...warning: never use bonza bud on mother plant, clones wont root.

thats odd cuz i grew one plant last summer and it was female and two more this summer and they're female too, all from bag seed.

maybe i'm jus lucky.. but i neva seen a male before.. kinda want to now. jus not in my grow

I think these additives are more meant to used to keep female's female. Stop them turning hermaphrodite and or going to seed.
