    Question Question about Feminized seeds

    Can you take cuttings from plants grown with feminized seeds? I seem to remember reading somewhere that you can't take cuttings from such plants, but maybe I am confused.

    Thanks

    Want to tell someone they should do a search on the site/research more while you dont bother to address the question or provide links? please remember this-
    "some people learn better through interaction and discussion than studying on their own, like kids who do better in school with a tutor to interact and discuss what they are trying to learn. we dont all learn the same way."
    and then hit the back button.
    Thank you.

    Can't we all just get a bong?

    I took cuttings from fem seed plants, the same ones for 3 years before switching them out for new ones.

    You're fine, just follow normal growing guidelines, I still prefer non-fem though...

    It may be a newbie question but may I ask why?
    Is there an advantage to using reg over fem seeds?

    In my experience, regular seeds are somewhat stronger, and have a lot less chance of turning hermaphrodite.

    I have been growing since 1992, indoor and outdoor, and the first time I have ever seen a hermaphrodite, was when I started ordering fem seeds.

    The chance of hermi is determined by parents genetics.
    Good breeders chose good parents an test them.
    Garbage in=garbage out with all seeds.

    I love fem seeds!

    Fem seeds come from hermie genetics, it is just the good seedbanks have good genetics with a smaller chance of herming out.

    I only access this website for research purposes. I would never actually do any of the things mentioned on here.

    CS an Sts do not hermi a plant, the silver bonds to the copper in the plant this prevents it from making flowers.
    The treated plant will in essence be "male", not hermi.
