i have never heard of anything like that
yeah....i wonder what gasses are emitted from a ripening banana peel?....if its co2 then it could help with growth but idk about helping it become a fem?.....probably nowhere near what dry ice or a tank and regulator could do....unless you had like 50 - 100 naner peels?....idk im curious......i do know that fermentation of organic materials creates carbon dioxide / decomposition of organic matter such as compost will create carbon dioxide.....but as far as just tossing ripening banana peels in your garden would help turn it a fem??? i want more info explaining what kind of gasses come from a ripe banana peel that help turn a cannabis plant a feemale????? sounds too good to be true? just like the myth that smokin banana peels will ge you stoned?

This is actually widely circulated information... the gas that they emit as they decay is ethylene which is found in products like sensi soak to increase the incidence of females.
The procedure is to wrap cut up banana peels in paper towels (you want the gas they emit not the moisture which will rot the seeds) and put them in a plastic bag with the seeds you want to be fem.
Every couple days remove the peels and put new ones in. After about 10 days germ the seeds.
I've never seen proof that this works, but it is a well known procedure.
If you want to try it, let us all know how it works.

ethylene is commonly used to ripen fruit for produce, but i've never heard of it affecting the outcome of a plant's sex by treating the seed. i strongly believe sex is determined by genetics more than anything else.
however, if anyone is willing to try this, please do so in a scientific manner. split your seeds, say 10 and 10. treat one batch with your banana peels or ripe apples, another great source of ethylene, germ them, and see if there is a significant difference in the female to male ratios. of course, random chance should always be taken into account, and such an experiment should be repeated multiple times so that any observed difference is indeed significant.
good old chi-squared...

There are a few products on the market. From what I read gibberellic acid is the most unsafe. Actually in the HT in my avatar there is an article about seeds by Jorge Cervantes. He spends a couple of paragraphs explaining it. If I had a scanner I would post it.
