how can you advise against something that you havent tried?
Because you would have said something about it in one of your previous posts, would have been a change to get some information from you first hand instead of something you read or copied from somewhereHow can you assume such a thing? Hmmm
Yeah and it was totally worth listening to, well doneI just said something.
Peace
I've already grown some feminized white widow, i got 9 out of 10 females, if your growing a small personal amount then you can quite easily manage this with feminized seeds and be more sure of getting females, I didnt get one turn hermie on me and they grew a substantial amount of weed per plant.Than, why dont you go buy some fem seeds and report back.
You've added so much value to this thread.
Peace
If a plant goes hermie on me but doesn't affect the yield in the end, then it wouldn't matter. It sounds like the chance of having a hermie with Dutch Passion seeds is 8% or less. And from their literature it sounds like little consequence even if you do. But I'm really not sure now I want to order DP strains although some of them are no doubt outstanding. I'm looking at Greenhouse feminised and they are inexpensive but of course I don't know if they are dependable.Info "Feminized Seeds"
In an experiment done in 1999 we grew 15 varieties of "feminized" seeds. We started with 30 seeds per variety. The goals were: 1) to determine the percentages of female, male, and hermaphroditic plants. 2) to compare the uniformity (homogeneity) among plants from "feminized" seeds with those grown from "regular" seeds.
1. The results were excellent. Nine out of fifteen varieties had 100% female offspring. Percentages of female plants from the other 6 varieties were between 80 and 90%. These plants were all hermaphrodites, producing their male flowers at the end of their lifecycle.No males were found.Seed-setting hardly took place.
2. Approximately 70% of the plants of varieties grown from "feminized" seeds were far more uniform than plants grown from "regular" seeds of the same variety. About 20% of the varieties were a little more uniform, while in 10% of the varieties no difference in uniformity was seen.
