Cloning From Feminized Seeds - Is It Possible, Difficult or Impossible?

No. Its just different from a non femmed seed because it came from a stressed mother to produce that seed, meaning you have a high chance of you clones herming from a feminized seed. If you get a non sexed seeds and flower them early then the clones from your females will be all female with less of a chance of going herm because their seeds werent created from stress

Low ryders are hard to clone.

Stress can not be passed on through sexual reproduction. Stressing a female plant causes it to produce male flowers but those male flowers do not a hermaphrodite make. The reason is hermies have an X and a Y chromosome. Female plants have two X chromosomes. Its somewhat confusing but I found some info that might explain it in detail.
I'd like to read the info that led you to believe what you're talking about...its possible that I'm wrong and misled but I don't think so.

Can't believe I added to a 5yr old thread....its a trap...turn back...lol

I've never had a problem cloning female or regular.

My clones from feminized seeds. Some would droop almost act like they wouldn't clone. Then pop up after 3-4 days. When taking cuttings from female plants from regula seeds. They stood tall through out the cloning process. I much prefer cloning from a regular seed. Just seems far more stable. Just my experiences though.

I had bad results with GHS feminised seeds, whey it was time for cloning all of the offspring had bananas in early flower period....

On side note i made about 4.000-5.000 clones in life with about 90-95% rooting rate from WW, JH, AMN, OG hybrids from few seed shops....

i have taken several clones from femmed seed plants, never noticed any problem. so the seeds from a femmed plant should produce femmed seeds, right? the dna is exactly the same as the mother. i prefer regular seeds though as i collect the pollen and breed for seeds. i feel very lucky to get a male or two for the genetics i am looking for. john

Top of the morning to you

We have ordered some feminized seeds, Tangerine Dream to be specific.
And we would like to clone at least one of them. But a reputable source has shared his knowledge telling us that it is harder to near impossible to clone using feminized seeds.

So our question is has anyone else tried cloneing using feminized seeds? What were your results? Has anyone read anything on this subject? or know anything? We are open to your comments or your opinions, please let us know what you have to say on this subject.

Iv grew a plant from seed .femanised. . She was 3 weeks into flower and I took 2 cuttings from her planted them and both have rooted. .and yes why would these not be female plants it's exactly the same genetics as the mother plant .I never used any fancy root powders or anything else just soil coco coir.perlite and vermiculite. Popped a cut plastic bottle over them as a dome and there fine

Never had any problems cloning fems, no different than plants from reg seeds. Some phenos, feminized or reg can take longer or sometimes retries but that's strain/pheno specific and doesn't seem to have any bearing whether it's fem or reg. I have one fem, Blue Pyramid that's the fastest cloner I have, 7-10 days in aero and it's good to go.

no school old school fact feminized seeds will be less likely to herm at any time... doing anything with them. i don't care what anyone says about it.happy growing.

Clone away! As stated above....it's all the same thing/there is no difference. Your" reputable" source relies on MYTH and needs to relearn their ways/stop spreading SHIT info.

good luck
