Here's a Reader Tip I got from Ed Rosenthal - ASK ED (book)

Reader Tip -> "I have been growing some great smoke for five years. the reason I am writing to you is because readers often ask, "How can you tell a male seed from a female seed?" I think I may have found the answer everyone is looking for.
First, germinate the seeds. Look to see where the sprout comes out of the seeds. If it comes out on top or on either end, I've found that the plant will be female. if it comes out on the side, it will be male.
I know that this sounds crazy, but I've had over 90% success with this method and so have friends of mine.
I hope this is of some help to your readers."


I wonder if anyone here has ever tried or herd of this hypothesis.

So here's a test run to test that theory.
I started 5 seeds.
If Eds reader is correct; these should all be female.

Good luck. I've tested the theory myself and it's BS. LOL

I might have to wait till the radicles are around three times the length of the seed to get a better depiction.

It isn't to often that I have had an embryo come out of where it was attached at the plant? Do not even think it's possible? That's not even how a seed cracks open. What?
