Feminized seeds come from hermis. The plant is stressed and goes into survival mode and produces both male and female parts to ensure its survival. 1 out of every 10 seeds will most likely hermie but you loose the seed curve. The seed curve is this. Every generation for seed is better than the generation before it unless it was stressed.
No,i must admit that i have never seen a farmer use Miracle Grow,on the same token ive never seen a farmer use Senis Bloom or Fox Farms either.
Ya, well, I think beans cause heart problems. I know a whole bunch of people who had eaten beans and then later had a heart attack. That proves it, beans cause heart failure!

flyer i am having a hard time understanding
this but am very interested, could you put it another way?
cuz i have been trying to find out if some seeds that i made using light poison are safe to invest my time in
Light poison? Like what? Coltracine (sp)?Feminized seeds come from hermis.

Look in advanced growing for the thread about femming seeds. It is all in that with a good explanation as well.
I am interested in what kind of poison you used to produce seeds.flabs
here's a kid that's never really smoked good weed.
excellent myth....a guy/gal that does't have a clue...bases his facts on his own limited experience and spews them as facts....gotta love the general public attitude!Soil. you can buy really shitty soil @homedpot et. al. that have almost no pore space. you can make it usable with amendments but not as good as just the amendment themselves(soil less mixes). I've also bought soil that was so hot with N It would have killed the plants if I didn't do a massive flush. Granted if I would have used more amendments it would probably have reduced or eliminated this problem, but the soil seemed fine texturally, so i didn't bother. I don't remember which brand. Where I buy soil FF costs about 3 times as much as mid grade soil. these days I am going about 2/3 soil less, i/3 FF. I grudgingly switched to FF after trying to go cheap w/soil for a long time. It is one of the few "brand" products I use, cuz it's easier than worrying and fixing.
no if you leave the ground wire off...it defaults to neutral. If you get "shocked" from a fan....it's because you're a dumb ass. A simple 2 way circuit can't be grounded.
yes I do base my knowledge on my experience. yes, i stated my reasons for my opinion. I'm waiting for you to show that you have a clue...but I'm not holding my breath
thanks, that wasn't so hard now was it?
I wasn't being an ass honestly...I was being point blank. If you were seriously looking for experienced growers....you were at the wrong site. If you were looking for fun and flames....well that's what's in this thread. The fun was the BS "myths" with a ton of inexperienced answers....the flames was simply me calling people wrong..which would be considered flames.....I guess me calling everyone dumbass didn't help tho.Bluediemond - thanks for stopping by to shit on this thread
i enjoyed the name calling and the clear facts...
There are several methods to producing fem seeds. Real breeders like DP spray their plants with aluminum sulfate to stress them out.Feminized seeds come from hermis.

Hermi are a direct result of a plant fearing for its exsistance. Plants are extremely adaptable to environment (clones are a good example). In this case the plant has been stressed somehow. Lets say it has root rot. It will continue to produce more roots (using energy that it could have used for something else). If the rot gets bad enough where the plant may not survive, it will produce both male and female traits. This way it can self pollinate itself, produce seeds, and live on through its offspring. Majority of the seeds it produces will be female to insure future seed crops so it can live on. Understand that one pollen sack can pollinate many plants and most males have several sacks. In all genetics, inbreeding is bad, but it is better than death. So the plant chooses the lesser of the 2 evils.
Personally, I will not use seed from hermi and I disagree with the production of fem seeds. I understand their value to the consumer but in the grand scheme of things they are bad
