Throughout my first 4 grows, I've enjoyed a high ratio of female to male plants. Out of a total of 16 plants that made it to the flowering stage, 11 have been female, with 2 grows being 100% female. Early on in my first grow, I posed the following question -
Here is an interesting response I received -
While it is quite subjective, I've also noticed some correlations between the above and my grows.
Employing GLR is reducing the hours of light my plants receive to just 13 hours a day.
My worst grow for female/male ratio was my third grow (2/4) which vegetated during last summer. Due to heat concerns I did not employ any CFL sidelighting which supplies the vast majority of blue light during vegetating.
My last grow's ratio was 3/0 and was kept below 85° for the entire grow. My second grow's ratio was 2/0 and was also kept below 85°.
There probably isn't much behind this given my low sample numbers, nonetheless, it piqued my interest noticing the correlations in preparation for my next grow.
