GA3 to reverse females

GCG

Dinosaur
Just bought some GA3 and plan on eventually reversing something with it. Not ready yet but making plans and space for this project.
Feeling inspired by everyone around here.
Any advice for me,

Going to eventually lightly mist my chosen female for 5-7 days before flip and see how it goes.
Try to time it so when she is dropping pollen the girls I want pregnant are about 18 - 21 days into flower.
Start donor about a week early?0912191914a.jpg

Haven’t done ga3. Wishing you success. I usually put females into flowering at the first site of balls forming but it takes some experience and a sharp eye to see those at the beginning. I have none. Hahah. So i usually am late at that. Still it works out tho. It’s a really big window you have to pollinate. Again, good luck on your endeavour.

I'm thinking my eventual donor will start dropping pollen at 4 weeks into flower. Ideally I want other girls to be 18 days in when they get pollinated so if I flip them 7-10 days after I flip my donor, my hope is, it times out right.
Maybe I'll just hit one other strain. Use 5 or 6 clones and stagger when I flip them so I cover the whole range from like 16 days in to 22 days in. See what works best.
More concerned about how much spray to apply. I know the formula but everything says "lightly mist" that's too damn ambiguous for me. Have heard too much can turn a plant into something resembling a palm tree more than weed.

So I've come up with a plan to test for best results using GA3.

Solution will be same for both groups.
.1 gram GA3 per litre of distilled water

Donor Mother/Father x 6 clones

Group A

1. Apply light spray for 5 days then flip
2. Apply moderate spray for 5 days then flip
3. Apply heavy spray for 5 days then flip

Group B

4. Apply light spray for 7 days then flip
5. Apply moderate spray for 7 days then flip
6. Apply heavy spray for 7 days then flip

Chose best one from group A & B to hit groups C & D


Mother x 6

Group C

1. Pollinate at 15 days (C x A)
2. Pollinate at 18 days (C x A)
3. Pollinate at 21 days (C x A)

Group D

4. Pollinate at 15 days (D x B)
5. Pollinate at 18 days (D x B)
6. Pollinate at 21 days (D x B)

Should give me a decent handle on things going forward. Seems sound. Now just have to decide what to chuck.
Any suggestions or input on my plan??

Thinking I'd mist whole plant but they'll be small. Maybe even just single colas for the test runs.

I am no expert on the subject but seems like others have found that spraying whole plants is a waste
