give em a go, bag seed is the best way to start...especially if you're new to growing. If they're male... well, shit.. that'd suck. It's unlikely to happen, if the seeds look good and are reasonable in size then chance are out of 20 you'll get at least one female. And if you don't, well.. male plants grow to.. if you can grow a male plant really well, you can grow a female plant just as well :)

give her a go, post some pics. keep us updated.. :)

Enjoy!

20 seeds ???? sorry but no way they would all be male.....your chances would be more like 9 or 10 females the rest male

Females get the buds either way. The males just give them the pollen to make the seeds. Usually people veg the plants for about 55 days then it takes another 55 days on average to flower them. Goodluck.

no just try to get the males out of there before they release thier pollen(use bags to cover them up before you wack them cuz you could shake some pollen off),last year i checked for sex once a week n was able to remove all the males in time,good luck

The worst thing is when peopel think that you need multiple seeds to get ONE plant...No idea where this rumor was started but it's retarded. Goodluck!

when you have seeds that were amaturely harvested the viability of the seeds aren't the same..

some don't germinate, some are male, some are hermie... If you don't want to waste 35 days on a plant to see if it's female or not, start with 4 plants.. pick the strongest..

or buy femenized seeds
