The Seed Collectors Thread

HIGH to all !~-I'm kinda new to posting, but have been reading about the basics of Cannabis horticulture for quite a while now.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO GROW BUD-BEARING PLANTS USING THE SEEDS ONE WOULD FIND INSIDE A BUD FROM A FEMALE PLANT?
I have a general question about seeds and do hope I'm in the right place. I have recently been procuring some very good "mids" and I assume the beautiful, multicolored pungent and very hard and tight budz are, of course, from a FEMALE plant. MY QUESTION:
"CAN I SUCCESSFULLY GROW HEALTHY, PRODUCTIVE PLANTS FROM THE SEEDS I COLLECT FROM THE inside OF THESE TIGHT, HEAVY BUDS?"<from the weed I buy?>
Of course whenever we buy "Sensimilla" we are buying buds, and there are normally very few, if any, seeds in the bag.(I suppose from inside the budz)
-Given this "logic" I can only surmise that, possibly, a small percentage of these seeds will be viable-or-able to be grown and produce buds...
Am I correct?-or are all these seeds I've been saving-good for nothing?
any help on this question is greatly appreciated................PEACE TO ALL, THANX

It's called 'bagseed' and if it's a fully developed seed, yes it's viable. There is a shelf life, depends on how much heat, moisture and light they are exposed to when stored. Given the right conditions, they can be stored indefinitely, however the fresher the better.

Hi everyone. Here's a couple pics of my collection. Nothing too crazy, but should keep me busy for awhile.

Nice collection. I assume your in my neck of the woods since you have those centennial seeds. Unfortunately, I've been hearing a lot of bad things about them, mainly bad hermies. You have any experience with any of them? I'd like to know what all those other package are, drop your list or a lot of us have been putting our collections in the about me section of our profiles. ;)

  • Well I have grown about 4 crops from bagseed and only one group was indica dominant all the others were 11 weeks or longer. That was back many years ago though when most weed was imported from mexico most likely. Most of them I would consider "mids" but maybe your mids are homegrown that just wasn't as good as it could have been. In that case, finding a small number of seeds in some bud, especially if it's not in all the bud but only in small pockets, it's more likely the seeds are due to hermaphrodites and not males since they are almost always culled. You could expect all females that probably have a tendency to herm on you. Just keep an eye out for male flowers and if you see them your best bet iis to remove the plant as soon as you see them and start thinking about getting some proven genetics in case you need to start over sooner than you expected. Buying seeds from breeders won't guarantee you wont get hermis, believe me I've been finding more than a few, but a least you can have a better idea what to expect.

Thank you. I'm from your neck of the woods indeed. I've grown out a single 21 female that was decent. I'd consider giving it another go. The Roughneck on the other hand wasn't anything special in my opinion. The three females I had all had nanners after day 50 or so. No full blown hermies, but nanners here and there. The quality of the finished smoke was nothing to brag about. It did the job but lacked the flavor and potency I was after. TGA's Vortex that I grew at the same time was far superior to either Centennial strain that I tried. One Roughneck pheno was a pretty good producer I must say though. I'll get a list of my collection posted here pretty quick.

That's funny a post I read the other night the guy commented on hermies and said the 21 was pretty decent too. I'm pretty sure it wasn't you though I just browsed you post history and didn't see that thread but I may have missed it.

i just gave one of those blue widow freebies away to someone, and i just got a pm on another site from her saying it sprouted good, but then died on her.. not to be a party pooper, just hope that you get better results from it than she did..

Your welcome, I haven't bid on anything from them, but there are strains that I've wanted to bid on such as Outlaw Genetics gear. His last packs of Gorilla Grape and Magic Merlin were being auctioned off at $350 a pack and was just too rich for my blood. I get almost all my gear from The Attitude but will be switching to an alternative seedbank as their security has been compromised twice. I really love The Attitude but don't feel safe ordering from them again.

lol.. yah, that is why i'm asking, i won the last pack of dpd over there for a crazy price on five beans, but i haven't gotten them yet, which is why i was wondering on shipping times.. yah, i found the right thread when i stumbled upon this beaut, lmao..
 

racerboy71

bud bootlegger
and as for any alternatives, i've used sow amazing, dope-seeds.com, sensible seeds, herbies headshop, growshop alien, dr greenthumbs, seed boutique, sannies, irie vibe seedbank, dr chronic, and i'm sure i'm missing a few others as well.. all of the ones i've listed i've used and have had good results from and would use again.. and probably again and again, lol..

yah, it's a sin about the tude as i was a huge fan of them as well, i just made another order from them tonight, probably should have looked else where as i got one of those odd emails from high life seeds too.. idk, not good though.. i've got to really stop buying soo many damn seeds as i have wayyyyy more than i'll ever be able to grow out probably even in my life time, and i don't seem to be stopping buying more anytime soon, being that i'm a member on a new seed sale''s site that is opening on monday, so i'm sure i'll be spending plenty of my cash over there as well, lol..
