Love running fem seeds. I have seen more intersex plants from reg seeds compared to fems seeds in recent yrs.
Couldn't have said it any better!
Amen to that !
I can only go by my own experiences.
Iv been running both reg and fem seeds consistently for 15 years-more so fems than regs due to space and limited resources but still plenty of regs too and iv honestly had more and worse herms and nanners from plants from reg seed than i have from any type of fem seed.i love running fem seeds.its just so much eazier for me with limited space to run seeds that i know are all going to be female.it saves me time and resources.dont get me wrong im not saying use em for breeding as iv no experience with breeding myself but iv saw plenty of fem strains be used successfully in crosses.wifi,motorbreath are two that spring to mind.iv also saw a website were they sold seeds they made using fem seeds to make a line into an ibl.some shit like that.no idea if they were any good though.
I completely agree with what was said here
Males are No More Stable than Females
Cannabis will do anything to continue its life cycle & I've seen so many reg seeds with intersex traits & the only time I'd ever keep any kind of intersex plant would be a reversed male occurring naturally as those are bulletproof breeders if Viable pollen can be produced from them
Speaking on the topic of Motor breath
@Mr Bee
She's Bulletproof & don't ever herm for us & when my homie crossed that up with GSC & OGKB & He Only saw 1 Plant that was unstable outta tons from the 3 crosses including his s1 seeds of the Motor breath
And For the record I breed seeds & am very well known in my area & I can honestly say this
Outta all my years of breeding
2 fem crosses turned out unstable & went to the trashcan
9 Regular crosses were unstable and went to the trashcan
***& if any breeder or even chucker for that matter says they haven't ever had to Throw Anything of thier own out due to poor results and instability then for one they should be doing more work as these things Happen A lot !
ALL THE TIME
& If they deny trashing previous strains they're prob lying too fwiw
Point being FEMS Ain't bad neither are regs
Bad Breeding Selection/choices/practices are to Blame
Also hate to say it but if someone gets Herm's it could very well be grower error !
My gg4 NEVER Herm's Minus one thing , Let the buds get too close.to the ol Hps bulb and shell throw hella Nuts & that was a grower error I made when I first started running her awhile back & fortunately it was at week 6.5 so it didn't ruin my whole room
Seen more Pure Sausage wielding female plants from regular crosses than FEMS
& I trash 90% of the males that come thru here minus the Gems & I'm focusing on producing FEMS First so proofs in the pudding there folks
But I'm only speaking from my experience (20 yr) so I apologize if anyone didn't get what I was trying to say !!!
