Just wanted to give you a proper update, JBC placed an order today for
Double Dipped Strawberries
Orange Cookies x Chocolate Diesel
Kosher Tangie S1
Double D
Chocolate Skunk #2
Chocolate Diesel S1
I'm new to Useful Seeds, just found out about them today. I've been reading this thread and like what I see/hear.
I've only grown regular seeds, but need something a little bit quicker right now, so considering feminized, and your seeds are highly recommended.

Just a couple questions, and please don't take this as any kind of a criticism of feminized seeds, I just don't know much about them. Is the hermie rate significantly more? Or is it rare to see hermies? Also, generally speaking what percent of the seeds come out female? And, do you do the usually method of using silver to create them, or something else?

Thanks in advance for you time.

Its pretty rare to see em. There is something like a 0.1% or 0.05% or something like that chance of getting a herm/male but again, its incredibly uncommon. Especially with useful's work in my experiences.
what percent of the seeds come out female
100% of em
do you do the usually method of using silver to create them, or something else?
I think useful addressed this awhile back and I believe he uses STS to reverse his fems? Im not 100% on that and could be wrong.

This may not be the right place for this post but I wanted you guys to know, sorry @Useful Seeds . Now the exciting news, wellgrown has brought on Indian Landrace Exchange for those of you interested in Landrace and heirloom genetics. And if ancient genetics aren't exciting enough, a portion(fair trade) of the purchase goes directly to the farmers who have been growing these strains for generations! One thing I don't know is how stable these lines will be indoors? Anyone know anything about heirloom stability when growing indoors? I am currently running mms chick magnet( Putang x Swabi Pakistani) and going great so far in veg (2 distinct phenos) but that is obviously a cross that can stabilize the heirloom. I hope people take advantage of this access to rare genetics that have been around for thousands of years and make a ton of crosses! :weed:

Peace

I BARELY could afford 2 packs off of DCSE, I wish I could get some of the fire useful is dropping on IG!
No doubt! That stuff he has on IG are ones I've never heard of, very interesting crosses to say the least. That Black Cherry Soda x Ancient OG and F2's he has made are the ones that caught my eye. Glad to see the bidding so high but too rich for my blood. Will get some pics up later of a couple I have in flower, only 14 days in. Got a Chem D x Chocolate Diesel that stretched into the light, crazy node length, anxious to see what it brings to the table. I don't think it will have much yield but might be the one that is special occasion worthy only. I only grow for the wife and I so yield is last on the list of importance.

The Chem D x Choc Diesel is my favorite Useful cross so far.. just a great combination if you like stanky/earthy bud... like a mouthful of wet forest floor, with a slight chemical finish. She stretched about 3 or 4x for me.

Got the box of chocolates and the choc skunk look amazing! Very happy so far! Might have to get some more of those double dipped strawberries soon. I hear the bags of oranges is a winner too.

The choc skunk has a christmas tree stature...any landrace in it?
Glad you are happy with your purchase. It very well could, everything we have is because of landrace cultivars.

I have sooooo many seeds stored, I figure if I can't get to them, I should offer em up. It is easier on IG because it is in one place, page doesn't move. I did do one here and it worked, but just wasn't the same. If you folks want to participate in some smaller ones let me know.
