Finding a good mom

Fem seeds lack things that males bring to the table. Vigor, strength, height are the most obvious. I'm sure there are also many more too. I've grown the same way for 14 yrs. 5x a year, I plant 12 seeds. 11 regs and 1 fem. The fem plant is always the smallest and weakest of the 12. Visually, this is incredibly obvious. I am also concerned about what may be lacking that we can not see. Terps, cannabanoids, other medicinal components, immune system? Idk, but no reason to assume that these are complete plants. Moms should be vigorous, healthy, produce, in it for the long haul. Better chance of this with reg seeds. Complete Moms from regs. I've finished some great fem seeds over the years. Good yields, good bud. Really nice stuff. But when seen next to reg seeds, consistently, easy to see that they are inferior.
I love everybody’s opinions. Brings som really good points to both sides. I think I’m gonna go with a pack of fem and a pack of regular. See which ones do good.

Yep, one or maybe two 10 packs you should find a nice girl that checks all the boxes as far as what youre looking for. If you have the space and resources, Id reccomend getting a pack of another strain that you think youd like and selecting a second mother. Its nice to have a little variety, expecially after a few weeks or months of the same stuff
I was thinking maybe like a white widow (or black widow), blue dream, and something else. Maybe green crack? Anybody know a good breeder for green crack?
