Default Feminized PPP = male
The supposed feminized PPP I got from Nirvana turned out to be a male. How is that possible? I thought the worst case would be a hermie? My thoughts are that either the seed Nirvana sent me was not feminized, or I did not mark it correctly; however, I was very careful to identify the seeds from the beginning?

By the way, the plant was well cared for and not stressed during this time. So, can a feminized seed be male?

Feminized seeds is just a sales pitch in my eyes. Yea this and yea that but there is no 100% that they are going to be female. Sorry man. Try again and next time you will know better

You don't know what you are talking about man, there is a guarantee in feminized seeds. They are made to be feminized. Have you ever used feminized seeds? Just because you are too stingy to drop some extra bucks on feminized seeds doesn't mean that it is a sales pitch. Many people on this forum including myself use feminized seeds with no problems. Sorry to hear about the male cowabunga, I'm guessing they just accidentally sent you regular seeds instead of feminized.

Tom_420, thanks for confirming my suspicions - shit happens. I wrote to Nirvana just to see if "Alice" would reply, but alas, nothing yet. All of the other feminized seeds I have gotten (Nirvana and elsewhere) have been girls.

The next time you order seeds I would suggest using attitude seedbank. I have heard a lot of bad things about nirvana and very little about attitude. I ordered from attitude seedbank and got all my seed plus 5 free ones in one week from when I placed the order. Good luck dude

Something slightly off topic: WHAT DOES THE "PPP" STAND FOR IN THE NAME?

i got mine at marijuana-seeds.nl, very highly rated.
Bought 20 fem seeds, at about $12/seed. 9 of them didn't sprout!!!!!! So they are sending me 10 feminized free w/ my next order. you should write them and see if they will hook you up.
have a good day and good luck in future
