but if you influence it like that, 700 plants, how do you know, you wont end up with plants that only turn female under rather specific conditions?
wouldnt the best mother be one that turned female, no matter what?
if you are gonna sell seeds from them, wouldnt you want to have the conditions "normal", no extra influences.
although those extra influences, could be considered like the effect of an excellent summer.
but do you get better plants, through a "always perfect" life, or a life with some adversity?
just a thought.
