Anyone ever turn a hermie straight again? With a spray?

[Rwise]

Dutch Master Reverse claims to be able to reverse a hermie back to a female only and/or keep it there. Claim is organic and safe to use, I never heard of such a thing and have not found it here on GWE. Anyone know anything about these type products? Can they work? Would/could it be worth it?
I was trying to find something like Tiresias Mist Feminized Seed Spray as I would like to try something safer than CS.

I have only had one plant truly hermaphrodite. Lots of plants get nanners, thats a form of self preservation. Just pick off the little bastards and let it grow. When I had a plant hermaphrodite every flower had both, male and female. Before I would waste time spraying a chemical on the plant to reverse it, I would compost it. Spraying your plants to cause sex hormonal change is a chemical change involving heavy metals, generally rendering the plant useless for anything but breeding feminized seeds. Weigh the cost of the bottle of chemicals vs a new seed, the risk of consuming the plant after you spray it, and the time to do all the reversing and you would be better with a new plant. My opinion only.

In making seed, I can make a hell of a lot of feminized seed from one 1oz spray can. What I dont want is the metals, I used CS last go and tossed everything but the seed in the trash.

[Woodsman67]

I'd rather pick off nanners and pick a few seeds out than smoke or eat any kind of spray. I am just now getting into the feminized seed breeding and I will be composting all plants involved just because I don't trust the consumption of unknown sprays. It is amazing how much science is coming out on growing, not just in the cannabis community but all gardening. Definitely makes it interesting

I've got my little packet of Gibberellic Acid (GA3) stashed away for a Feminized Seed experiment down the road. Seems less risky than CS, and it worked great at popping some "Un-popable" ancient seeds.

Rwise it blows my mind at all the new stuff out there now,
I wish we would have had all this new stuff, years ago, I might have learned something.

[Rwise]

@DA.A.S.69 looks like this stuff has been around for 10 years or so. IF it was worth while I think we would have heard about it sooner. Gotta learn somethin new every day!

there is a chemical that can change males into females, it is called Ethelyn(I think that is how it is spelled), you have to keep spraying, unlike CS, throughout the whole grow, maybe if you get all males(which is rare), in a regular seed pack.

Interesting read, and told me enuf that it wont be used here! CS is bad enuf.

[Ace1973]

it would only be for breeding, the seeds themselves would be viable.

ethylene, sorry not trying to spam

[9fingerleafs]

ITs also called the “ripening hormone” because lots of fruits peak production when ripening signaling other fruits it’s time to ripen. They produce it as a gas and other fruits and plants react to it. Making a good argument for plants having a sense of smell

[Ace1973]

plants do smell, they also have other senses, some beyond us. Ethylene is also found in female plants.

[Rwise]

Is that the gas bananas give off? I have used them to ripen other fruits
As far as making a male go female, IMHO not worth while, and my thought is hermies fit here too.
I was curious as to whether or not others had tried it.

[9fingerleafs]

Yes it is. Agree with the not worth it
