Hydro question and female plant question

I remember reading some where that if you give the plant more blue light, more Nitrogen I believe, good amounts of heat/humidity, and a few other factors can contribute to the plants coming out female. Can anyone give me links to this to confirm what ive read? Anything you guys can find out there is GREATLY appreciated.

As for my second question, im doing my hydro soon. I know that certain chems are better for the plant then others. (20-20-20)

HIGH All, I say you plant a seed and your chance it's a female is 50/50..not bad odds I'd say. If growing Hydro make sure it's (the fert) for Hydro..lots of them on the market. The Ferts I use is Nurtilife's "A" "B" "C".... "A" is 10-0-0..."B" is 3-9-27..."C" is 0-26-17...you use "A" and "B" for veg and "A" and "C" for flowering.

I think the seed already has the genetics in it that determines if it is male or female. I dont think there's anything you can do to change the sex of it.

the sex of a plant is not genetic. you can defginitely increase your own chances by certain ways.

and when your talkin about somwhere where it said that if you have more blue light, nitrogen etc you can get a female. i remember seeing that on the page for femenized dutch passion seeds at hempqc.com

Try this website http://www.nirvanaglobal.com/cannabis_seed_shop.htmlAll seeds are female so stop thinking seeds are like aligators where you can have influence on the sexe by temperature.

Lower Humidities, lower temps, and less stressing of plant are what I know are good for increasing your chances of the glorious fems.
