FEMINISED CANNABIS SEEDS by Dutch Passion Seed Company, Amsterdam (continued)
Of the 5 above-mentioned environmental factors the first three are the most practical:
1) Level of nitrogen and potassium of the seed bed. A heightening of the standard level of nitrogen makes for more female plants originating from the seeds. A lowering of the nitrogen level shows mmore male plants. A heightening of the level of potassium tends to show more male plants, while a lowering of the potassium level shows more female plants. A combination of a higher nitrogen level for the period of a week or two and a lowering ofthe potassium level is recommended.
2) Humidity and moistness of the seed bed. A higher humidity makes for an increase in the number of female plants from seed, a lowering for an increase in male plants. The same is valid for the moistness of the seed bed.
3) Level of temperatures. Lower temperatures make for a larger number of female plants, higher temperatures for more male plants.

4) Colour of light.. More blue light makes for female plants from seed, more red light makes for more male plants.
5) Hours of daylight. Few hours of daylight (for example: 14 hours) makes for more female individuals, a long day (for example: 18 hours) makes for more male plants.

After learning the ropes in this new land and developing a taste for top quality smoke, Lee decided to put years of Chinese garden knowhow to work. First you will see how he converts a closet into two grow rooms. Next he plants, grows and harvests outstanding buds with a minimum of effort. First time growers love this easy growing example. One grower recently remarked: "I followed Lee's example and grew a great crop the firt time. I grew a heavy indica cross called 'Shiskeberry' and harvested more than a pound from one 600-watt light over an 8-week crop of clones."
"I growing indoors long time. I use soil and three-gallon bags. I harvest heavy crop very easy," affirmed Lee with a big smile from ear to ear.
"Clones flower fast in three-gallon bags. They easy to grow and no problems," he continued.
Lee uses the single most effecient HID available, the 600-watt HP sodium with an efficient horizontal reflective hood. Chapter Six illuminates the facts of light and shows you why Lee chose the 600-watt HP sodium lamp.
