Can you force reg seeds to be male for crossbreeding with a female?

  1. Hey people! This is my first post on this site. I recently ordered a couple regular 818 headband seeds and I was wondering if there were certain methods to ensure a plant turns out male for crossbreeding, with a different strain of female? Ive read that the rate is 60/40 female germination rate. Whether thats true or not I dont know. Hope to get some feedback, thanks!

  2. stress will case them to hermie not turn male.
     
    but chances are if you're running seeds that are from a clone only like that headband it will hermie anyway due to sloppy breeding.
     
    there's nothing you can do to make more male plants.
     
    and yeah 60/40 - 70/30 is about right.
     
  3. Ok so more or less there isnt much I can do to cross the headband? I really appreciate the answers fellas
