You say you grow all talk tho proof is in the pudding. Nobody told you to grow your Powernap with your crop. You talk about this whole thread being about herms when when all I brought up was one plant knowing to herm sometime. I'm running the exact same plants that showed a couple sacks right now and nothing. I know my conditions. Just cus you grow outside in a greenhouse or whatever doesn't make you any better than me. My lil closet/tent is producing dank frosty buds and I ain't seen a pic from you yet. You keep your outdoor and I'll keep my super dank frosty closet buds.

I wouldn't even waste my breathe, she's obviously just heavy trolling now, grasping at straws. It is painfully obvious that she has zero experience but yet keeps talking shit like she's doing hundreds of outdoor plants. I've got her outdoor harvest right here:

the guys at sin city have said themselves that their fem strains hermie. They dropped them.

I'm running their white nightmare. Its very frosty. Buds looks like they will be big at the rate they are growing. No hermies. I got 5 femalea out of 7.
I haven't read that and I'm over on their forum so I'll ask them to clarify that but I typically buy regulars anyway so don't do much research on feminized lines.

I never heard them say that either but I figured that's why they stopped making them on most strains cus of people reporting herms. As I keep saying the trait is in all cannabis so it can come out on any strain especially growing from seed. Clones tend to be more stronger and won't show those traits as to why I run a pheno more than once to determine if the intersex trait still shows. I really don't care I know what I get from their gear and I don't get full blown herms. Yes I had a couple strains show a couple sacks because of the heat stress they were going through on the seed run. Clone run perfect conditions nothing so it comes down to many factors

they said it on their instagram last January or February

you gotta run a pheno a few times. Not only do the recessive traits come out in clones. (more so with no back crossing) but strains need to adapt to the environment they're in. By the 4th batch. It will be 10 times better than the seed. Sometimes its learning the strain too. Usually just adapting.

if you flower a plant under one type of lighting. Then switch lighting or spectrum. It will.take a few batches for those genetics to adapt again. Same idea.

I loved the white nightmare and you will too . I expect a review from you and I will hunt you down when time is near .

I asked around the sin city forums and what I was told is that people from Sin said that feminized seeds, in general and not just theirs, have a tendency to herm. And they have not discontinued feminized, their CBD line is going to be all feminized from what I was told.
Some truth may be to that . Mine were feminized with no herms . I enjoyed it like everyone else . Try and you shall see . I ordered their sequoia strawberry . That'll be next

They're just like any other breeder. Take some pollen and chuck it. The person bad mouthing them in the above post is clearly a kid who is all excited by their first outdoor plants and big whoop. Trying to act like no one else here does outdoor or has had two liter sized outdoor buds from their 6 foot tall plants in midwest cornfields. Then when they posted pictures of the outdoor buds it's all popcorn sized nuggs, tiny for outdoor. So yeah, I wouldn't concern myself with any of that person's opinions.

Yea the CBD line has been fem since it came out last year and will always be. I think that's why it's taking so long to restock cuz I believe they have changed the way they make fems. Not sure on that so don't quote me. Also they didn't drop fems they only make certain strains in fems. Powernap, Blue Power are the only ones I know for sure they make and restock. They just came out with a limited release fems at the cup called Blizzard(The White x Blue Power). I have some Blue Power fems I may pop since I won't have to sex them. I gave half my pack to my cousin in Ohio to get going and he hasn't yet but he will as he's in the middle of a move.

Your gonna love the Sequioa Strawberry bro. Be ready for some beasts!!! The White Nightmare dad makes them really big with big buds so I hope you have some space. Some amazing phenos in them and they had a high female to male ratio from the testers. 60% and up for females

fems have a tendency to herm because they lack the stress recovery traits that come from the father plant. So fems can't handle the slightest amount of stress. some how the melatonin needs ro be increased in fems for stress.

I popped legit fems back in the day. Half hermied. The ones that didn't weren't the same quality as the regulars. I never ever will mess with fems again..

I too prefer the regulars but every now and then run a few feminized just because it is all some strains come in But never run fem seedlings as a main crop, only their clones if they prove themselves.

Also, I had to chop a couple buds off the #4, the plant I could of sworn I seen a developing seed in which then lead me to assume that the red hairs meant it was pollenated = hermie, because they were against the side of the tent with poor air flow and had a tiny spot of mold that tried to develop when RH hit 65%. I remedied the RH with a dehumidifier but as I further inspected the buds I noticed no seeds with the red hairs. Some pods were kind of swollen but most were not so I think this is just going to be a fast flowering sativa leaning pheno, fingers crossed. But if it did in fact herm, I will dutifully report back for those interested.

So I may have cried wolf by saying it's a stress herm. I'll also post picture of the buds I cut off when they are dry to show if there are in fact seeds or not. Cheers.
