All depends on your preference and how much work your willing to put in. I have had excellent luck with their fem's. Have never had a hermie and I've ran quite a few of their fems.

If your gonna keep mothers and clone, you will have smoke faster if you go with fems. Couple extra weeks if you go the regular route. For me, it really depends on the mood im in when I order the seeds.

I have had a hermie due to light leak with secret sour feminized. With no light leak the clones did not herm.

Running some reg super lemon og, no herms but havent finished the first grow yet.


Not sure but I think reg seeds can herm as well??? Never had it happen but im sure its possible.

I'd pick fems over regs,,,as long as stress testing has been done on progeny,

With fems,,,the breeder is able to view parent(s) in female form,,,I'd call that an advantage

Also,,,S1's are technically inbreed,,, i like inbreed lines :)

ive grown lots of dna.. and RP.. and both fem and reg seeds.. i prefer REG .. because i didnt have any hermi issues with regs with dna genetics.. but with FEM.. it depends on the strain lineage.. do some research. if its hermi prone genetics.. in fem form.. id go with reg instead if possible..

¿ Why you don´t take one of the many elite clones, and some S1 made from that clone, grow both and after analyze the DNA of both plants ( the original and the S1) in a Lab????

.....And after that you can follow talking about what is better.

¿How much money have done this industry from STS?

¿How much money spent in Hype, catalogues, merchandising......? A lot.

¿ How much money spent in real research about the effects of STS in the DNA of cannabis plants?

NOTHING AT ALL

May be transgenic cannabis would be a even better option.

More productivity, more resistance, more resin you know.

May be one of the great breeders of our community should start a partnership with Monsanto to explore this ways that would bring a new revolution for our beloved Cannabis Industry.

I guess our breeders are magicians like Gandalb from the Lords of the Rings.
They use their magic potion and there is not any side effect, is just that a magic trick.

Enjoy the thread, I´m not coming back.

Depends on what you're looking for and what the strain is in question.

If I want something close to the mother plant/clone they use, I prefer S1's all day.
