So are you saying they tried to create a seed that produces male only seeds?

Haven't popped any yet. That doesn't sound good about all male seeds. I have at least one pack of each line from RS and 10 of the PCK. So I guess we'll see. I'm guessing you got a pack if the favorite og medley? Which other pack did you buy?
no, hes saying they're full of shit... at best they have a cross, at worst.. something mislabeled purposefully.

Anywhere in Colo. Carry decent feminized seeds.
I think that sometimes people don't really understand the pedigree of what they have. If they acquired seeds named "Ghost Kush" that's what they'll call 'em. That's apparently different than "Ghost OG" supposedly a clone only.
The answer to the seed problem is for growers to lay off the lust for sinsemilla a little bit, grow seeds & give 'em away. Grow shop people would seem to be the perfect recipients, having the ability to spread them around with ease. The conversation works like this-
"But where do I get seeds?"
"Oh, here- take these. Keep 'em. Now what system were you interested in, anyway?"
It plays differently with regulars, but gestures of goodwill seldom go unappreciated.
Gifting of less than an ounce of pot is perfectly legal, so long as it's unconditional.
What method are you using to germ the seeds. Also could you provide more info on your grow system.
This is what I picked up.

This explains your autoflowering problem. Today in Denver, sunrise = 5:54 AM, sunset 8:19 PM = 14 hours 25 minutes... not enough light to keep most things from flowering. Most plants need at least 18 and some will even start flowering at 18 if the light is not intense enough (like too little T5). I like to veg at 20 on 4 off and start right off with the 400 MH.
I don't see it as a problem at all for outdoors. With a 60-80 day flowering variety, he'll be ready to harvest end of Sept to early Oct if they start now. anything planted just recently would need to go to the end of Oct probably.
All males is his big problem, maybe environmental stress somehow.

Correct.
It does piss me off when I give good seeds to people to see that they would rather grow Whatever-Kush clone that looks like shit in algae covered rockwool...
After getting the "russet" or "rust" mites about 3-4 years ago I switched to only popping beans, and have made my whole collection of seed stock from original breeders seed stock, not one bagseed, clone or fem seed used. The first few rounds (big name stuff from the 'tude) had tons of hermie issues, but now I'm growing my own crosses from the best plants and never see a single nanner. I don't think I will ever go back to growing sensi, since after its smoked its gone (unless you clone).
Not to mention its fun growing the seeds you made!
gotta disagree... the problem is unstabilized seed being passed off as if some level of work had been done...
do the work, stabilize a good genetic, whether it be good potency or unique flavor and you'll have something of worth.
OT, I've had Livwells Flo... Very lackluster. I've had a couple of other disappointments from Livwell too, enough so that I don't want their product, no matter what it is.
I didn't buy from them, a couple different associates did on seperate occasions and I never enjoyed it.
It's not like growers need to make seed every round. Properly stored, seeds keep for years. Grow a seed crop, then grow sinse from those seeds for several rounds if you want. I'm learning how to collect & store pollen, as well, so that I can pollinate selected buds rather than the whole crop. Keeping mums & cloning is a lot more involved than seed growing & more difficult to implement if plant counts are being observed.
I have acquired what are supposedly solid true breeding indoor/outdoor varieties for the purposes of making seeds- Autoflowering Spyder, Double Fun, Cantaloupe Skunk & Santa Maria with Queen Mother hopefully arriving soon. They're all new to me, so it'll take some while to create much variety.
We're kinda hooked into the CO gardener community in general, know more than a few who'd grow outdoors if they had suitable seeds. That's the next phase in CO legalization- widespread establishment of outdoor growing. It's a pretty hopeless venture in our very small very urban veggie garden, unfortunately. We have alley people, if you know what I mean. They're not a problem unless tempted & I just don't want to go there.
I wouldn't mind grabbing a pack of Sour Lifesaver off you.
okay. not sure what you disagree about.

Recently got some Dakini Kush seeds from centennial seeds in Lafayette. Got a thread already going on the whole process to keep better notes. Anyone with experience with CS, especially this strain, I'd love to hear from you.
