my seeds keep turning male?
i was once given a single seed and i grew it to be a beautiful female ,so i asked a mate for some more.he gave me a handful of seeds i think he got out of a bag cab.for the last five years i have been renting so i would just grow them to seedling then hand them out mates to grow,and every time they turned to male.
are all these seeds destined to be male because they are from the same plant?
just moved town and cant find any different seeds and was hoping to maybe grow them myself this year,but not sure if its worth trying some more of these seeds or not?
note that some of these plants i gave to friends i kept an eye on and made sure they used the same techniques i used for the successful female i grew

grow twenty seeds and you should get ten females.
It would be impossible for one plant to produce all male seed. Female seed is another story.

cannabis seeds have a strange reaction to stress.
if they feel that the conditions are bad enough that they may not be able to reproduce, they'll switch sex in order to self-pollinate.
are you sure some of them weren't hermaphrodites?
if you do a little searching, you'll find that even feminized seeds can switch sides if conditions are bad enough
little things like improper watering, ph fluctuations, & temperature swings can make it happen
100% feminized only means that the seeds were bred with female pollen - that in turn means that the seeds have a higher likelihood of being female
the best breeders test for stability meaning that the seeds can stand up to a tremendous amount of stress without turning
