As a 10 plant limit gardener, regular seeds can be a great experience of genotypes getting to seed a variety in the genetics while keeping the profile you enjoy. In my experience only the "IT" genotype is anything like the description. Sometimes the genotypes are very diverse in effects with some being power houses and others very mild in effect. Even the flavors very with possible concentrations in one terp or another.
Example 9lb hammer gynxproof genetics, there was at least 5 distinguished genotypes and all of them had a wide swing of phenotype possibilities. One taste like lemon head candies but was very very mild in effect, the other smelled like a pinesole floor or a chem bud but was very paranoia inducing for me, another was kind of like peanut butter cups but had an effect like a super hawaiian strain great head space if you like tripping. And then there was the "it" genotype which was like the leafly description. All the various genotypes changed each season with the pheno some would go from being og chill to paranoid tangerine.
The phenotypes for each genotype were so diverse it would be almost like smoking another strain. And only one season was it exactly like the leafly description as in the flavor was balanced limy grapes with a very body high with a clam on anxiety. The weather and age of the soil the only changes. This last year one season was profoundly grape! Like wow...
Because the seeds were regular seeds I got to experience 25 variations of the same parents.
Now I don't know if fem seeds actually get tired faster then regulars from experience but I can honestly say there is a difference in high from reg to fem and minor though it is reg from seed same geno as the fem has a higher high. But only a really epic cultivar could propagate to the level that it will be a noticeable difference for most.
Seed companies can vary in quality quite a bit not everyone understands how to grow for seeds as a product but some do. And I'm not going to tell you how to. But there is something fun about getting a male and female together and being able to grow their kids. You never know what your going to get. Its so cool how many hybrids have a sativa expression and a indica expression with a few in the balance...
Think about crossing to insane strains that were fire paranoia but just one of the kid has it all right and no anxiety with the best traits you love of both...
