ordered 10 reg, but got 5 fem??? - Auto Flowering - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Blackard · 06-03-2009, 03:39 AM

So I ordered 10 regular auto seeds from a seedbank, which I wont name bc they have been reliable before, but I received 5 fem seeds instead. Im not bitter or mad, shit happens. Problem is....I wanted the regular seeds for breeding, so I am not buying seeds every few months. Is there any way of breeding fem seeds? Forcing a hermie perhaps and trying to collect pollen?
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I would say growem then smokem and skip the selfing. Next time just email them ahead of time and see if they have what you want in stock instead of messing with that.

Did you email them and see if it was a mistake or if they only had the Fem seedfs? They may be willing to work with you.

def check out if they will work with you but i wouldnt try to make any seeds.. its never recommended to make any beans using a fem bean

yea thanks guys, im probably just going to grow it out. Ive read people getting males from fem seeds. Is this a common occcurance or just a fluke?

I have never grown a fem bean before but I hear of alot of hermies with these not necessarily males.. Many people report good success tho so I guess you will find out

Depends on the method used to make the fem seeds.

Go with colloidal silver, just poke around a bit on here its seeminly the most reliable method and gives 100% female all the time using two female plants.

collodial silver, the other thing you can try is gibberellic acid...
