any others with purple jems shots?
whatsup people, ive tried other threads but so far no reply. not much info on autos. this thread hit the nale on the head. hopefully i could get the info im lookin for. i have 2 nirvana auto blue mystic plants. they are advertised as 100% female. and i understand there is no certainty. so about 3 weeks in, they both showed sex. 1 seems to be all fem, the other showed male sacks first but now i can see white hairs also.(herm?) but like i said they are advertized as 100% fem, but the 1 plant showed male first. what does this mean? is it male or female or just a rare thing. i would like to make the most out of the situation, so im intersted in producing seed. from what i think understand if the herm pollinates itself, it would produce different quality seeds than the herm pollinating the fem. can someone explain my options and what the the offspring would be like if i let the herm pollinate itself and or if i let the herm pollinate the fem. 4 weeks and a few days in now. these are the latest pics. any other info would be great also.

I had a long drawn out response but fuck all that, fem seeds will not produce shit bud, a grower who doesnt know what they are doing will produce shit bud. I dont know about you, but my fem seeds produce good plants. If yours dont your doing something wrong. Always shitty bud from fems? Man you might want to look into that a bit more.sorry to say but herms produce herms. i would cut it out before it sheds any pollen. thats the prob with fem seed. to make them they stress the female plant so much that she produces pollen that only carries female chromosomes, but she also inherits the herm trait. yeah it will still produce some bud, but you are always gunna have shitty bud. not primo bud like a pure dioecious strain would produce.i say stick with reg auto instead of fem strains and do your own breeding.it will work out cheaper in the end.
You misunderstood I think. He is saying that if you take buds off of a plant that is spending it's energy producing seeds then the buds will not be nearly as potent as they would have if the plant had not been pollinated.I had a long drawn out response but fuck all that, fem seeds will not produce shit bud, a grower who doesnt know what they are doing will produce shit bud.

I didnt misunderstand anything, I read what he said, if he meant something other than what he wrote maybe he should be more clear. He clearly said, "it will still produce some bud, but you are always gunna have shitty bud" Not much to misunderstand. You are right that they will not be as potent if pollinated, if its a heavy pollination. If its only a few seeds in a plant, it wont take much energy for the plant to produce them, plus the rest of the plant will go on trying to become impregnated, producing more bud and resin. If the plant is fully pollinated then you will have an issue with loss of potency. A plant is not happy with just a few seeds, it wants every calyx full, so 10 seeds in a plant, wont make it crap bud. The plant will barely notice those seeds and keep going on like its not even pregnant. Thats why people pollinate lower branches and keep their tops seedless. The top will grow just like its never been pollinated because it hasnt, only the lower branches have.You misunderstood I think. He is saying that if you take buds off of a plant that is spending it's energy producing seeds then the buds will not be nearly as potent as they would have if the plant had not been pollinated.
well thanks for the replies. im prepared to take a lost in bud if i know ill end up with quality seeds. i think the auto blue mystic is fairly new genetics. maybe its not so stable just yet. like i said i know certainty is a far shot. but the male does come from supposedly 100% fem, so in my mind the offspring should be prodomenantly fem traits with a chance of herm due to the process of making fem seed. but if the male herm pollinates itself there is a greater chance for male and herm offspring. but if i pollinate the fem with the male that was supposed to fem anyway, than i would think i would have a higher percentage of fem seed. but genetics is hit and miss anyway, right. i would rather have alot of seeds that can produce and supply bud, than just have one good plant produce a small supply of bud. you know the saying "give a man a fish he can eat for a day, teach a man to fish he can feed himself for a lifetime."
hey look at my album for pics of a easyryder i did i was tryin to upload new pics of it but its not workin..total dry weight is 54 grams...any one got any close up purple jems preharvest pics? ( or lowryders for the green phenos) forgot the date i started em and they look done but theres so many white hairs and it just seems to keep going, + rep
(Raw225)
bro Easyryder is very easy to grow great results
Many new strains
go with what u think mate check out this site bro (Automatikseeds) i ordered from here there are only autos
they have some of the latest strains im new have a good look around
ladiva can get up to 300 grams per square metre
thanks alot for your input man!! im gonna check that site out now, i hope they ship to the U.S. with no problems!
Who has grown autos on an 18/6 schedule AND a 12/12 schedule and what differences did you notice? Do most people stay 18/6 the entire grow from seed to harvest?
