I did a search of this forum and I didn't find anything on the subject.
In the faq section there is a graph showing how to sex a seed to see whether or not the plant will be female .... is this true? ..... has anyone tried this?:confused:

don't know about the validity of this chart, but i'll be doing some experiments as i still have 14 femenized seeds. i'll end up posting on this thread, probably so keep it fresh!

hmm. I'm sure it is correct. I have a question tho, why are these seeds feminized. and why are some seeds not.
feminized seeds are produced when a female plant is over stressed and kicks a male flower (hermaphrodite) because both the mother and the father of the seeds are a female plant, the odds are greater of female/male. in other words, feminized seeds is sposed to give you more females.

there is no way to determine the sex of a seed by looking at it ... NO way ... that is controlled by both genetics, and environment ... :smokin:

There are ways to increase chance of female from seed. Keeping temps/humidity etc within proper parameters, more blue light. Dutch Passion lists the influencing factors on their website. My understanding is that your seed will decide sometime @week2-3 what sex it will be.
Had anyone ever tried the method in the chart to prove or disprove the theory? :confused: :stoned:
I remember this issue many years ago and have seen numerous responses from people who supposedly checked it out. It boils down to being a myth. I can remember a breeder pointing out that if it were possible, everybody would be doing it, it would be common knowledge.Just went and looked at the faq, and that's the same one I remember from years and years ago exactly. Too bad we don't have overgrow archives to show, but I can recall someone pointing out that those are not even mj seeds in the photos, they are a type of tree seed??
their 'chart', is, in a word, "horseshit" .... but, their photos of trichome changes IS correct ... :smokin:
