Geez, can I feel your pain.
Early root-building can be brutal on those of us into instant gratification.

Yes he does. Don't you love the thriftiness and efficiency of the ziplock bags? I can't tell you enough how simple it was to clone using his method. I read about all the fussing everyone goes through and I open the bags every three days, add a drop or two of hydration and close it all back up. No muss, no fuss, just healthy, happy clones in less than 2 weeks.

Good info, Anecdotal but the odds are ever in your favor?
Environmental controls that do affect sex of plants
- a higher nitrogen concentration will give more females.
- a higher potassium concentration will give more males.
- a higher humidity will give more females.
- a lower temperature will give more females.
- more blue light will give more females.
- Fewer hours of light will give more females.

I find it easiest to buy feminized seeds, but I know this might not always be the way I go, in which case this would be valuable info. I do have a stock of regular seeds that I'll be able to apply this to someday.
ShiggityFlip has a community grow for Pineapple Fields running, and somewhere in the early pages is a post on influencing the sex of the seed. Great stuff that you cut to the chase on here Hab.
Life is pretty straight-forward for you, isn't it?

Black or White Sue, lol. Dont get me wrong I do what I please black or white, but yes pretty straightforward. I know it comes off poorly online but i'm a friendly kinda guy! I like order and I dont bend at the knee ever. lmao .
I Planted the two fem auto mazars and sold my pre flowering one for $250. I dumped 90 grams of oc+ in er and told her water only give it lots of light 20 hours a day, lol warranty till it hit the door.

It's amazing we get along so well. I'm flighty and winging it, but charming and loving enough to get away with that, and I'm about as flexible as they come. I won't give you three chances, I'll give you 12, and then negotiate a 13th. I don't give up on people unless I'm forced to. 
Incidentally, nice warranty.

I told her just give it light, water and call if you have problems.
The new laws up here are great
I charged one guy retired airline pilot 50/ hr to come over and clean aphids out of his grow because he thought it a good idea to bring some old peper plants in lol. Poor eye sight lots o money. I was there 4 hours but I organized him to be more efficient and he bought some autos seeds ....

I was checking the wrong mailbox. That's an enterprising way to generate income. I like that you charge what you're worth. Dale tattooed and I ran the business, did the designs, generally made it possible for him to just tattoo. We were insistent from the beginning that you had to pay his price, not the one you were trying to negotiate. Lol!
It would be an interesting way to make a living on the side, setting up and organizing grow spaces. I dream of co-ops. Think of the pot lucks you could have with a cannabis co-op.

Have you run 2liters before Hab? Tead's pretty taken with them too and B A R ran them successfully for a couple years, if I recall correctly. I was just wondering what your own history with them is.

Hey Sue
I like 6-10 liter hempy, but these 2 liters work well for breeding. 2 liter milk cartons hold more media but the pop bottle carrier will keep everything stable.

I saw a journal on another site lately using the gallon-sized goldfish boxes for soil. What frugality. It had me eyeing them when I was shopping, but no grandkids to eat them all and that's too many for me to have around just for me. Lol! Suddenly everything becomes a possible growing container.

You're planning on breeding them, correct? Of course you are. Forgive me, too many journals. Somewhere along the line they start running together.
Are you just going to leave them all together to openly pollinate?

No worries Sue, appreciate the time you do take to stop by.
Just keeping everything together for now I plan to collect pollen to store and pollinate several different strains openly. I have 2 DP fems and 2 SS fems started and starting 2 cks fems. Going to reverse one of each fem. ordering some seeds for black friday sales. I will be good for a long while and do some pheno hunting for ideal fems to pollinate.
