using a fem plant with a reg male will it work?

[jollycanna]

have you done this does it work or are seeds from fem moms not as good or is there little we know on the subject?

I was wondering something along these lines... if using a pollen from a female forced male to pollinate a reg female of a different strain. Whats the implications? Fem seeds and crossed normally?

 

[MIMedGrower]

Done all the time. Think clone only crosses.

 

[Aqua Man]

Well I may try some crosses and see what happens then in the future.

Genetic integrity wouldn't be as solid as regular photos. Fem seeds are produced by herming the plant which would weaken genetics a bit imo.

a female plant is a female plant. The only thing that sts or cs does is block ethelyne production. All the best seeds i have grown have still been ch9 female seeds except for two other fem seed plants.

And when shanti gave him seeds he feminized them from his own garden. I have some of those critical mass seeds from shanti pete gifted me.

Many famous strains have been kept going by feminizing seeds and rejuvenating the stock. Any good breeder keeps a vault of his genetics.

I've read it wasn't a great idea, but honestly not something I know a ton about. Very interesting though.

 

[Newber]

bout to name a strain lol gimme the info!

how else could you get a female clone only to breed with another female clone only. All the most popular strains today are like that. Like wedding cake now or chocolate trip 20 years ago.

i want to add that it depends on what you are looking for. For the widest genetic diversity you would want a male and female.

but saying it just isnt a great idea is very shortsighted. Feminizing is just a tool to use as needed.

i thought thats how a fem is made...

yeah but those clones start from reg seeds right... fem female plant.... reg seed male pollen= regular seed mother dominant?

fem is force herming then pollenating a plant that is not herm... fem seeds happen in nature when no males appear on a hill the ladies talk and one goes herm and dusts the rest out producing mostly female seeds.

i have 707truthband fem seeds and want to x with kauai electric

I make my own female seeds,I use female plant spray it with CS take the pollen put it on another female plant pretty easy

do both autos and photos,

im not talking about making fem seeds. totally off topic.

What you taking about then.. your going to get regular seeds crossing a male
And female

fem plant mother x male pollen from a regular seed = ? viable stable off spring... with are mother dominant trait pool?

They be regular seeds male and female,I done loads of experiments with plants durning this lockdown,
Maybe I’m wrong but I think there just regular seeds,maybe you touch lucky and get more female than male seeds
