Ive started last year with 1 seed and it turned out to be hermi .Where i live its hard to get any weed or seeds so i got lucky with that hermi i have plenty of seeds and evryone i ever planted allways turns hermi so what i do is cut off as many pollen sacs as possible and get very few seeds. Maybe like 10 seeds per plant and they produce like 2 ounces of bud per plant.Pic 1 and 2 are main cola after the chop and 3 and 4 are lower colas 2 weeks befor harvest.I got that 1 seed in a 5 doller bag of dirt and turned it decent bud

there is nothing wrong with hermies or males, i would grow all three if presented with the situation. it just opens up a whole new part of growing pollinating and cross breeding.

i believe it does depend on the type of hermi to get fem seeds. the proccess is called "selfing". basically use irregular light schedule to throw it hermi. self polinated hermis this way tend to make fem seeds. male polinated hermis will no work, or natural hermis from what i understand. that said i just harvest a nice hermi myself and have 2 seeds goin to confirm or deny what ive read. my avatar is also a bud shot of it a few weeks before chop

I had a herm on my first grow. The seeds from that heshe has produced nothing but females over the last 4 grows. Germ 10 seeds get 10 girls. :hump: The bud from the original hermie was really quite decent. A couple of friends I turned on came back asking for more. :joint:

This was my first grow. Out of 4 plants that I got from 10 seeds, 3 went male and one went hermie. I have been cloning the hermie and she produces some healthy bud. This baby was a bush. She yielded over 160 grams.

I spray Dutch Master Reverse & Penetrator and I pick off as many pollen sacs as I can find. It really does help keep down the number of seeds. I am also sexing two seeds from my first harvest. I am hoping one of them will be a true female. :joint::hump:
