Yep. I am not opposed to regular seeds. I like both regular and feminized. Because I have limited grow space I usually begin with 2 regular seeds of 1 strain and 2 feminized seeds of 2 different strains. That gives me as much variety as I can get and a shot for a total of 3 females. If the regular is a good strain I will usually seperate the male and collect pollen from the first pods I catch opening. After I scrap the male, use a qtip to touch a few of the wispy buds on the female for 20-50 seeds later. My friends who grow, on the other hand, will only use feminized so they dont waste their limited space on males.I think maybe I can do a 4/20 special with this idea.. BUT remember these are regular seeds.
My biggest hurdle is, being such a small grower, it is hard for me to spend 100 bucks on just one strain. Generally when I do order seeds, 100 dollars is my budget and I go with several different strains to make up that 100 bucks for variety. Which is where either feminized or mix pack would come into play. If you guys had feminized I would certainly have ordered pick and mixes already and no doubt I would snatch up a mix pack as soon as I saw one.
Let me note, when I am saying this stuff, I am not considering myself unique or special. I feel that if that fills my needs there are MANY other growers that would feel the same way. I read somewhere that indoor growing was one of the fastest growing hobbies in America. I cant say that is true, but I can say I am amazed at how many people I find out actually have a small grow going on in their closet. One of the nurseries near me, who I buy supplies from, recently said "this" side of their business has gotten so busy he is almost considering shutting down the nursery and just selling grow products.
