Reversing Process Tutorial

[Nesta]

Whats up everyone??? Im looking for a good tutorial on how to reverse a female plant. Anyone have one?

I don't know exactly where to point but alot of people on Instagram throw out good stuff. I know Csi Humboldt just posted info about how he staggers the stages. I think he puts the males into flower a couple weeks ahead of the females. Sprays them 2 or 3 times (like once a week, so over 2 or 3 week time period) then gets the females flowering while he waits on the reversal to happen. The timing and if the plant will reverse seem to be the critical parts from what I have gathered

Thanks. After I posted that I spent quite a bit of time on YouTube. Lots of differing opinions out there, so just curious if this group had any recommendations.

This sounds like a good idea for a howto thread. You wanna make one as you do it?

What did you learn on youtube?

I got some really bad advice the first time I tried it. He had me put a sock over the branch made out of breathable plastic and it was a mold shit show.

If you don't make a thread on yours I'll do one when I reverse this Han Solo Death Cookies (and send you some seeds I didn't forget.) But that will be a minute. Maybe Christmas time.

I’ve just reversed one of Jeff’s Zamal dreams phenos..I just take cuttings from seed plants before they go into flower.you can take them in flower within 8 day or when it’s just starting to bud.and exactly what MDK said once your plants are say 20-40 cm you can spray one top to bottom with a one time spray with elite x elite spray..put the reversal straight into flower then wait 14 days for the donor reversal plant to recover then throw the female(s) in there and once the donor hits around day 20-24 it will b throwing pollen..I think I went another 7 days maybe more then culled the male..I selected 3 pheno es of Jeff’s dude your droolin and got about 4000 seeds off them...it’s expensive but you don’t need much..I think I used bout less than a qtr of an 8oz bottle .donor plant was probably 20cm with 3-5 nodes..it knocks them for 6 but they come back okay.

Happy to do a tutorial. Im a few months away from being able to do this, unless I add another tent . The good youtube videos outline a process similar to Max’s.

Just ordered some ElitexElite.

Do a few to double up if you wish..I know Jeff @dragonsflamegenetics couldn’t get one of his strains to throw viable pollen so I’d do a reversal in opposite direction as stated in last 2 paragraphs above so you get the genetics..what pollen you don’t use you could dry and seal it up and freeze it for another project.I just left plant together all bunched up with the male at front with a fan going on it and just swapping positions of the females making sure they are getting pollinated.I was getting bout 50 seeds per bud and the donor females took 11 weeks for the seeds to b ready.bout same time that particular strain takes for the buds to b ready to harvest..

Good call Max. I think that what I will do.

heres the reversal.I done this I reckon 3 or so weeks ago..when I firest sprayed it I wasn’t sure it worked because the elite spray had been in the fridge all mixed up from using it ages ago and has been in there bout a yr so wasn’t quite sure it would work.I was still seeing female pistils and thought it had gone off so I hit it again..in the mean time the female plant was getting bigger .shes only been in there a couple days so she is behind a good week.I’ll just leave the donor reversal in there longer..I will prop him up too
