Hey guys !
started flowering 5 days ago .. and one plant shows (not certain yet :shock:) little balls ..
Is there a way feminized seeds can include males ?!!
I`m not talking about hermies or stress problems . .
hope i`m wrong . Thanks

Yes, feminized seeds are not ALWAYS going to be females, it just means they have a higher chance of not being a male but it still is possible to get a male from a fem seed.

Only 5 days in, you're probably jumping to conclusions and there's nothing to worry about. Pics would be helpful :)

I am a newby at pot growing, but humor me.

I thought that in order to get fem seeds, you need to have pollen from a herm bud or a reversed male or female...and those resulting seeds carry only the X chromosome, then pollinated with the XX of the female.......?
How can they produce a male? Other than maybe changing gender completely.
A little stoned so I hope I made sense.

There are several ways to make fem seeds. The one you are referring to I believe is antiquated. Greenhouse seeds claim the chance of getting a male is about 1/1000. So using that logic, every 1000 fem seeds they send to people contains a male.

What you do to make a femmenized seed is you spray iodized colloidal silver on your buds just after it has been pollinated, the silver blocks male chromozones and if you do it right you will have a 99.9 chance of creating a female seed, if you get that one out of a thousand then your luck is shit. odds are though, that these were not femenized correctly.
