My experience with Reverse was that it had no effect. You are better off examining and pulling off all male parts when they grow. Hope its not too many plants!

I don't recommend ANY product to be used during flower, especially not chemicals to change sex.

It's not the end of the world but it truly does suck. :(

Worst case scenario? Get yourself a kiff box and be prepared to sterilize your room of all pollen. Rub all that bud (after it's dry) across the kiff screen. Take all the leftover seeds and broken up bud and make edibles or oil.

Have a LOT of kiff? Gonna take you a month or more to smoke it? Prolly want to press it into a few hash buttons. Use the "Clay Extruder" from Dick Blick's Art Supplies with 2 dimes and you can easily press your own. (About $20, plus the dimes.) :D

Stay Safe!

How far along into flowering are you?

You are supposed to use reverse on the second and third week of flowering.

If you have a plant that throws nanners late in flower that you want to stop, don't wait until you see a nanner to spray reverse, spray the plants in the 2nd and 3rd weeks.

I've used Reverse with success... I use it 3 days into flowering and 10 days later,... You must use it with the saturator for it to work correctly.. It does work. Don't wait until it's to late this is a preventative so use it accordingly..

The problem with DM Reverse is that you have to buy their expensive Penitrator. I tried it once but it didn't work.

it'll work late in harvest; just make sure you mix it with saturator and use it right after mixing; it may be expensive but there really isn't anything else on the market that is going to stop seed production and restart the bulking of the flowers; especially a product you can use five to six weeks into flower as a foliar... and when mixed with saturator it won't burn the pistils or harm the flowers... better than a crop full of hermi prone seeds imho :joint:

it is best to use as a preventative though; i have a chemhaze x sourd cross that always herm'd at week 6; hit it with reverse at the start of flowering and no herms six weeks later

used it and it works, for sure.

last winter i super-stressed a 3 month vegged chem ibl w/ leaving it in a freezing room w/ only 120watts of t12 bulbs. probably about 200 male nodes popped off around day 10-15 of flower. picked a lot of them off but missed a bunch. freaked out. all clones were stressed to fuck too, showed 20-30male pods each.

used dutch master reverse and saturator as directed and only found 10 seeds in a 13 oz plant, while i found none in the 8 2oz'ers i flowered directly after. in flower it works by inhibiting the male flower and killing all pollen and new seed formation. using it twice in early flower, between day 1 and day 20 is perfectly safe. no real bud formation at day 2. i find it also enhances the performance of the female preflower.

i now spray it in veg as a bi-weekly treatment, along with neem oil and fox farm dont bug me. its now a preventative, as all i grow really is herm prone strains(chem ibl, sd ibl, ogkush) in less that optimal conditions.(good, not lab-grade.) i might spray it once on day 10 just to be safe.

latest ive ever sprayed it was day 30 w no bad effects to taste or quality of the bud.
