Anyway, fuck femmed seed. Reg seeds will show sex in veg if you wait long enough. If you see a pistil without a hair its a male or hermie. And its not a pistil its a pollen sac. Full of man jizz.

If you wanna flower sooner you just flower em and cull the males. Pretty easy.
You probably mean calyx. Pistils are the hairs.
But one thing I agree totally: Fuck fem seeds!

Have always gone for the regular myself. Am uncomfortable with the thought of paying some else to get hinky with the plants for me.

I used to be concerned about Fem seed but not so much anymore. Now I’m more concerned w the quality of the plants that the breeder is working with.

As for Fem or Reg, I don’t think it really matters but my preference, given a choice, will always be Regular seeds.

From regular seeds; one could produce more regs and/or Fems & keep a line going.

Using Fem, one can only maintain a Fem line.

Choose what suits your situation the best.

Since all the best fem seeds come from regular seeds first regs are better. Especially if you hate shelling out money on seeds all the time a few crosses or F2's you are just as good as 95% of breeders.

so we can rule out the usually.

If you don't grow indoor, and you end up with a few males, you're fucked until next year. So you have to pop 8 reg seeds, in which case, you're illegal.

I sure wish a couple senators were growers.

Now hear me out. This allows a shitload of plants if you can grok it.

You can't possess more than 4 non flowering plants. This means any plant that begins to flower is not counted anymore and can be replaced with another seed-ling-plant.

If you have 16 week flowering sativas you'll have roughly 16 plants with each 4 plants being upgraded to flowering every 4 weeks under 12:12 lighting.

It allows a slow marching continuous grow with 4 non flowering plants at all times.

I'm high, like super high so if it doesn't make sense I won't be offended if someone finds a hole in the logic.

Nice! If you flip right away, wouldn't that be a harem of like.. 60 girls?
How long after the flip do they show hairs? Guess I should start growing indoor.

What strain are you smoking? I want it. lol

edit: thinking back... I believe troutman mentioned this to me a while back.
