Do Not Buy Feminized Seed!

[tekdc911]

no mules ?

 

[BenFranklin]

no males, exactly!

IE: resulting seeds would all show "female" genetics, or Hermaphrodite genetics.

Hence the term "Feminized seed".

 

[tekdc911]

A hermie plant with mostly male parts would still be considered "Feminzed" because it still has female parts.

The best thing to do, is ask the seed dealer themselves how they make their feminized seed, if they say "I don't know", you can probably be rest assured that you're going to end up with hermies.

the other way is to seek out word of mouth from postings like on this thread to find out which dealers are making "good seed".

according to canned abyss " black hills garden " the viable males look like that the rest are mules

 

[BenFranklin]

They are saying "Viable males" are carrying female flowers????

If so, email them and tell them they're full of fucking crap and that they are selling hermaphrodites.

 

[Northern Lights Grower]

hmmm so male dont carry a hermi trait ?

Nope.

Yes they do. If you breed a male plant with a hermi gene from its parent, with a non hermi plant the offspring could herm.

i stick with dinafem , positronics , world of seed's , barneys farm
ive got my own breeding project going so no time for anything else really
still have a shoreline in the background and a kosher cross but most my room is filled for the next year or so

Yes, because you put the HERMI GENETIC IN...

A male plant won't turn female.. sorry, nor will it turn Hermi.

A female will turn male and a hermi will display male parts, but its not a male.

Look people..

A Female is a Female, A female can be hermaphrodite if the genetic is present to do so.

A Male is a Male. A male can NOT be a hermaphrodite. it can't be "Stressed" to make female parts. like a female can be stressed to make male parts.

A Hermaprhodite is a hermaphrodite and will display BOTH sexes.

I've never bought seeds in my life, the stuff I smoke, I made 20 years ago. The only thing is, I wished I had one or two other strains. Just to smoke something different every now and then, lol!

The stuff I made, I just kept buying the best weed I could find that had seed in it, and then pulled pictures off the internet through its entire life cycle so I could figure out what strains I had, then bred them for seed, repeatedly, over and over and over.

I currently have a nice mix of Cali orange bud and a purple indica/hash plant. The buds come out looking VERY colorful to say the least. Rainbowish almost..

The clones I have made from one mother that I've grown, it will throw off a hermie every now and then, the further I get away from the original mother... If I let the light get to close to the plants and they get to hot, they will throw off a male flower and produce a few seeds...

Nothing annoying so far, yet... I expect that in subsequent clone generations that the hermit trait will reveal itself more and more.

See, I what I do is, take clones from the mothers, once I see that the clones are going to root, I will throw the mothers into flowering... I am on my...... like 15 generation.

you should nab some positronics
it would remind you of 30 years ago
the purple haze #1
is an acquired taste if your a youngster
all my buddys are dick riding kush and blue berry yum yum
but a spicey sativa that lasts half a day is what i like ( stuff is border line acid trip )
smells like fresh cut grass and berries growing real mild
then gets a berry incense during flower
and almost skunky musk after cure
2 hits and your running in circles doing everything and absolutely nothing lol
they have alot of oldschool strains that is the main reason i like their beans

 

[tekdc911]

the purple haze #1 is what im breeding out trying to make a auto with it
but the F1's are getting thoroughly tested so i dont accidentally lose a good photo pheno in the process

My stuff currently, its a bit addictive, and it seduces you.

Then it punches you in the brain and gives you couch lock.

A few weeks ago, we had a bear attack our garbage bin, tipped it over, I was on my way to do something important and just didn't have time for it...

So, I got pissed off, went and got my tractor out of the garage, as I pulled out, I forgot to push the garage door all the way up, and hooked it, took out the entire door....

The problem was, I did this while I was straight, hung over from smoking the night before...

It's THAT type of weed man... LOL!

thats exactly what im talking about
how long do your strains run in flower ?

 

[BenFranklin]

Put it this way, I got up at 3am... so I could smoke some weed. =) Then I will go hang out in my shop and do some turning on my lathe.

 

[BenFranklin]

thats exactly what im talking about

Depends on what you want...

When I first started this perpetual grow... I just moved here.

I had 4 plants, I harvested 2 at 45 days and desperate, and got 3-4 zips.

I took another 1 at 60 days and got 6,

then another at 90 and got 8.

Now?? I don't even bother with knowing how long they've been in flower, I harvest when I think they're done. I don't check the trichs or anything, I just go by the way they "look". I've never been disappointed. In most cases I get about 6 zips per plant. I harvest 1 plant at a time, I really can't tell you the time frames... I am assuming about 60-90 days. Just bout time I am running out, I got another one drying and ready to be bagged for smoking. I mentioned to my wife the other day that I should mark it on the calendar and see how long... Sometimes I let them fox tail out, and other times I don't.

 

[tekdc911]

the first one is momma to my crosses and the second is 3 of the babies
have around 16 inside and about 15 outside that i culled because i didnt like the way they were acting
the one in the back right is a auto

 

[tekdc911]

i had to cut that one short at around 8 weeks about the time that pic was taken
mom was doing bad during chemo
so i chopped and BHO'd it and the auto bud i had put back
was out of state and planned on being gone for 2 weeks
had a clone make it from it
i had it for around 7 months it filled a almost 4 x 5 box 2/3 into flower

 

[BenFranklin]

I just got done with 2 plants under a 1000w... one ended up with mites, grrr.... So.. I spiked them both with azamax, it was towards the end of the grow and it fucked over the PH, so, the buds didn't get all fat and big like is their potential, but holy shit there was a WHOLE LOTTA popcorn, and HOLYSHIT was it tasty and gets you absolutely RIPPED.

ya this haze was around 14 weeks from flip but took 2-3 weeks to actually start to flower

I bought some bag shit a few months ago, it had seed, I've been tempted to see what kind of weed it "really was".

I've not grown a sativa in a very very long time.

Make my own hybrid sativa/indica...

I love hybrids, it would be nice to get a nice fat juicy mostly indica hybrid... Mmmmm.. I remember seeing some Williams wonder hybrids growing in 5 gal.

Dude had 3 x 4' long kolas.... that was the plant, one big fat nasty kola... no branching, no bullshit.. just all kola.

and from what I've heard, these plants are "sativa"? I saw a picture of them in high times a decade and a half ago at least, and then all these years later have been trying to find the duplicates to these plants. NO luck... I can't imagine that a sativa would only be 4 foot tall and one big bud... SO either high times was mistaken and they switched pictures by accident or... someone on the internet doesn't know what they're talking about...
