Feminzied seeds make bad mothers?

I just read that, pretty good info but generally what they probably mean is feminized seeds can be quite unstable, therefore making the whole mother plants a little unstable. females from a normal batch of seeds tend to be a lot tougher and non hermie than feminized seeds.

the above is true... Feminized seeds often come from hermie prone plants. It depends though on where you get them. Truly good suppliers of seeds don't make feminized seeds from hermies they use other methods.

yea I agree, if u are going to get feminized seeds then save up some money and get some Dutch Passion or Sensi Seeds are probably the best quality out there at the moment. I myslef just toss the males from a regular batch.

There is no other way to get female pollen other than putting a female plant under stress. Breeders us a low stress method using Colloidal Silver to get the females to produce female pollen.

i got some white widow fem from sensi seeds and the only 2 i've grown so far are hermies. i started germing the other three and then 2 days later i noticed the herm. im thinkin of just placing the seeds id the wild even though they prob wont make it through the winter, but fuck it i dont want herms.

do you think if i let them grow to their peak that i could get more hash from them than a male? maybe still as much trichs as a female just over powered with seeds and pollen?

Well, I would plant them anyways. THe only reason they should go hermi is if its stressed I heard

I've ordered feminized seeds (PPP) from Nirvana on more than one occasion and I'm very pleased. All have been true females.
