I'll go take some pics of one of the branches that I hadn't picked balls off of when the lights turn on.
Are you 100% positive that you didn't inadvertently mislabel the clones? Are the clones throwing pistils and balls or just balls. I would think a true herm would have both not just balls. I'm thinking you accidentally cloned the boy which would explain how all the clones are throwing balls on every branch, especially if you're not seeing any pistils.

The combination of genetic tendency + stress is what makes plants herm.
Gotta have both, so if you know your strain has the tendency, might wanna keep em fed a little longer.
My point is this: scenario 1. female with herming potential is used to produce seeds (either as the pollen donor or recipient) under normal conditions.

Scenario 2. Same female is used to produce seeds under stressful conditions.

The resulting offspring from both scenarios are going to have the exact same potential for herming.

Understand the "incentive" to limit duplicate orders...on the other hand I decided to take the $ 300 I was gonna toss your way and got some other seeds(not a huge order but still). So maybe here's some incentive to work with your customers a little more ( how much work would it have been accomplish all this and throw it one package for me (15-30 minutes?) Anyways still tossed a little cash your way but the lions share went to seeds here now....what do you guys think I should run first, I'm thinking seeding junky's -pk crasher.....
Bruh.. Get out your fellings! at least @Gu~ if you gonna talk this crap instead of emailing him. The shits listed clear as day on the FAQ that they dont do that..

https://greenpointseeds.com/faq/can-i-combine-the-shipping-for-all-of-the-auctions-i-won/

Probably so people will cop other things instead of just individually sniping at the auctions. I get that it sucks now that the shipping costs have gone up but its their policy.. If they gonna do this for you they gotta do it for everybody..


1 of my CnC is turning out boss fwiw..

Yeah, I don't normally read FAQ's, and obviously didn't in this case. May I suggest that instead of flashing the "someone just bought " marketing scheme banner that pops up at the bottom of their website. They should flash important information to customers that don't want to surf through the faqs and what not to figure everything out. Gu seems like a nice of enough guy and really didn't want to vent on this thread. Probably shouldn't of. At any rate I think they should be a little more flexible with their shipping policy considering what the cost are. It was gonna cost me 80+ for shipping. When shipping starts to encroach like 30 percent of a 300 dollar order, I start having problems. If it was my company and someone wanted to spend 300 plus for some beans, I would go the extra mile and put my employees to work to make sure it happens. They also have this go to line "in order to pay our employees a livable wage" they used more than once which was kind of annoying and seemed nothing more than something that sounds good in order to justify their position. How about using the line "in order to keep out customers happy" so we have employees, we have no problem throwing all those in one envelope! :bigjoint:

Also, I will mention, since it was my mistake I emailed them and asked them another question and agreed to pay for what I had ordered, when I went to my account I saw that all my orders had been cancelled so I just said screw it ( It seemed like less than a week since I had placed my orders, so it seemed rather quick, maybe it was a little longer idk.)

And yes I'm looking forward to seeing some CNC's pop..

My answer was taking my business somewhere else...right? "If it was my business" was a suggestion so that maybe he doesn't turn away business in the future....Don't get all Amos Anus with my ass :twisted:

I am getting the feeling you're wanting compensated for shipping charge by getting free seeds with every order kinda thing. Am I right? I would go for that.(when Gu gets his fem line started). Good way to promote a new product.
Hurry up Gu! Fem some strains.

No, I bought all my seeds at auction (except for raindance) and used the cash option. So I was just looking for him to throw all my seeds in one envelope so I didn't have to pay 13 dollars shipping for each order.

Gu has his reasons. Like someone said, when you are getting packs for under 25 and 30.00, not to mention the gold nuggets. Now if you are gonna buy 300.00, 10% off would help.
Still $40.00 for 11 seeds? That's not bad.
Are you a "gold member"?

I think the magic for almost all of these Stardawg crosses is locked up in the genotypes. No one has really explored an inbred second generation yet. Think @LubdaNugs has some Jelly Pie F2s going and @genuity had a Black Gold F2 run right? Curious how varied the trait expression was and if any second gen progeny were improvements over the parents?
This. Cant wait to see what I find in F2s of keeper mums and selected dads. My 9 week Gunslinger pheno has become our household's current favourite toke so am flowering out a fast flowering male to dust it with.

For someone in my location, access to the genetics locked up in these F1s for $30 a pack is pretty sweet.

Stressing a plant won’t lead to more herms in a subsequent generation. The stress isn’t going to alter the plants DNA or anything.

You just want to avoid using plants that will herm under natural conditions if possible because that tendency to herm will be passed on.
That's pretty much what i was meaning. If it was herming under good conditions I wouldnt try to reverse it.

this is the reasoning behind some saying don't breed with female seeds. Some claim they have went thru some generations without the trait showing, but seems like the consensus is once you have made female seeds or someone, that trait is brought to the forefront, so breeding it may pop it loose and they claim is no good. I see guys arguing both sides. IMHO the fem seeds are for smoke only, but its nice not to mess with males if you are limited on space or resources.
I run both. Some fems some regs. I've not had any problems using a female seed or a female from reg seeds. I mean take cookies for example. All started from a herm. Which was a female seed. Along with chem. Bagseed that more than likely was female. From a herm. Most people like myself chuck to have other stuff to run. Or two strains we like that we think will be good together. Some share. Some may sell a few here and there. Between friends u make on here and on IG, or Icmag or where ever. Theres no reason everyone cant grow fire for under 50 bucks. And then make some of their own stuff if they choose. I mean look at gens thread. 200-300 dollar strains bred with a different male he may have found in a different 200 pack. Puts em together has em going out for cheap. Mimosa crosses n whatnot. Sherbs... I'm sure hes made crosses with both fems and regs. I think its jus all in preference and if you find a nice female

Garlix 76 days of flower

Still spitting white pistils like many GPS strains I’ve grown. I even underestimated the look of her and stopped checking trichs last week , for shits and giggles I put em under the scope today and was shocked to see 10-15 % amber , the rest cloudy , maybe 5% still clear.

I chopped her just now, very dense buds, I left some on the plant and threw it in for a re veg in case I love the smoke, moth balls scents mixed with dirt soil smell
