Using Bagseed to Grow?

For everyone that has grown from bagseed is it worth it? I really don't have the resources to buy seeds on the net and I'm sick of paying for weed around here. It's just too expensive. So if I get some seed in my bag what are some things that can go wrong and some things I can do to help stop those things from going wrong? I know a lot of weed from bagseed ends up being hermies. How would I know if the weed I'm getting is from a hermie or was just grown out in a field and got some pollen on it? But I guess free hermie weed is better than no weed at all :P.
Thanks for your help everyone.

There's treachery afoot
bagseed is a good way to start...especially if you don't have the resources to buy seeds or access to anyone with good clones or seeds. Run one or two grows with the bagseed until you perfect your technique while saving up for some seeds you really want. I read alot of the posts and the most important thing I have learned is no grow room environment is the same and each has potential for individualized issues. Tweak your system to work best for you then you will be ready when you get some superior genetics. :mrgreen:

Well I've been reading here for about 2 months.. I've even answered a lot of questions so I have a pretty good understanding I've just heard a lot of bad shit about bagseeds and I just wanted to know if it was because it's really that bad or if it was just the people who hate the idea of having an OK crop..
Thanks for the help :D. I'm starting to really plan it all out. Check out my grow box I got planned out - https://www.rollitup.org/indoor-growing/43148-ultimate-stealth-grow-mini-silo-11.html#post513680
It's a WAY stealthy grow. I've been looking for months and haven't found anything better. The only problem is you're going to need a few of them to get a lot but if you're just growing for yourself or if you don't smoke every day and want to use it for yourself and a few friends it should be a really good setup. It's just because it's small so you can put them in different places so you don't have to find awkwardly large containers to put your setup in.
It's the only way to go if whoever's watching you is expecting you to be growing and checking.

I think most people just have a problem with bagseed because of inferior genetics. I used bagseed right up until probably my tenth or fifteenth grow. It's better to practice on bagseed until you have the ability to grow expensive seedbank seed without messing something up.

im not sure what your setup is like but hopefully you wont get pure sativia diva's and take super long to flower(up to 12 weeks or so(?)). plus they are longer and lanky usually. but who knows what genes you got, it could have been an outdoor grow with kush, WW, NL, or whatever that someone missed a male or hermi. but like others have said the seeds are free and your sure to screw up your first grow some how. dont use M Grow. God bless everyone!:peace:

:D yer I plan on asking to get as pure of an Indica as possible. Besides, I've been smoking mixes and I want to try a pure Indica and a pure Sativa so I can really see the exact difference. I'm pretty sure I like Indica better ghough.

i think the folks that rip on bag seed are very concerned about strain and purity and seedless buds. as a first time grower, i would have been happy with ANY bud (seeded or not) that got me even remotely high without giving me a headache! i think many experienced growers forget the desperation of just trying to grow enough so you don't have to buy it.

so my comments on bag seed - great way to learn. in a way, it is kind of like learning how to play music on a less-than-good instrument. By the time you get to sounding good on your cheap instrument, imagine how well you'll sound when you spend some money on a quality music maker.

As for what kind of high you like - that is completely subjective. For me, i like the soaring, heady, got-to-do-something cerebral highs of sativa and sativa-dominant strains. I just started puffing on my PPP grow and wow - i really like it. Personally, i don't care for the body stone, couch lock, i-ain't-moving-for-shit indica high - but like i said - that is subjective. I also don't doubt that there are folks energized by indicas and knocked out by sativas so personal chemistry also comes into play.

OK - i'm rambling now - guess that sativa is doing its job well!

anyway - good luck and happy growing!

I think Ser0 missed your joke ...

i was going to use the K-Mart special vs. a Fender/Gibson but didn't want to leave the non-guitar players scratching their heads...

i also wanted to avoid the Fender vs. Gibson debate with Rickenbacker, Gretsch, (and for you acoustic players) Martin, thrown into the ring at some point.
