they are seeds which are "gaurenteed" to be feminized. however, they are also gaurenteed to hermaphrodite. theres probably a 50/50 chance, there was another thread similar to this one a few mins ago - dont buy feminized seeds, ive seen friends grows hermie off those things. thats my opinion, and the opinion of any of my grow buddies.

I have never read anything good about them as they are know to produce hermaphrodites. Read up on some of the postings on here regarding them. I have always bought the regular take a chance seeds and have been happy with the results at half the price as feminized

I planted four fem. Greenhouse WW seeds. Three are confirmed female and not hermi. One is confirmed female with hairs, but may turn hermi. It has to do with your plant environment more than anything. If you have fem. seeds in a stable environment with no heat stress ect. you shouldn't be getting a bunch of hermi's...

Well you guys only read here and there, i have blueberries fem going right now and most people will tell you that blueberry is a unstable strain, well i've been putting them through temps of 85-92 flactuating and they still haven't hermie on me yet. Just make sure you get your feminized seeds from good breeders. GL!

it means theyll turn hermie, unless your a shit hot, grower. ive been using fem seeds, and every grow, has more hermies, than females. just use reg seeds. fem. are a rite con.

my numbers are not statistically significant but out of 10 seedlings from feminized seeds 9 were female the other died. Other bought seed has been about 3/4 females and bag seeds have been 50/50 or worse.

I am not counting my first couple of attempts at growing since my first 10 plants (all from bag seed) were either male or hermied. Way worse than feminized but my hydro system sucked, the light sucked and there was light leakage (big surprise on the hermies there huh?)
