How many females from seed?

[VILEPLUME]

Just got a pack of 10 feminized seeds. I know it is totally random, but in your guys experience how many seeds should turn out female? Not counting hermies.

I was wondering if you could force a plant to be a female no matter what... If they can go hermie from just lights, then dont they already have both sexes in them somehow? Or am I just stoned ~

The hermies that are produced from fem seeds aren't exactly like males. It's sort of a reaction for self preservation. Feminized seeds come from stress induced hermies. On the whole it's like 99.9% chance at being female. So I wouldn't expect a male to pop up in a feminized seed pack from a reputable breeder.

Thanks guys.

What about regular seeds? I have a 10 pack of them as well. What should I expect?

All females will eventually grow balls if flowered long enough, a true genetic hermie develops a few male flowers early on.

Expect to flower 4 or 5 out of 10. Put one back in veg for clones.

Regular seeds will be more stable, the females you end up with won't have tendencies to hermi.. It's worth the little extra work to plant a few reg seeds and get your females outta them

Makes sense. I will plant the regular ones instead.
