However, many strains that are offered do not include an all female package. And that spells trouble to me. Many of you have the capacity for 10+ plants, and quite frankly it would be very discouraging to me as a first-time grower to have to destroy the males and begin all over again as I have a tendency to give up on things that upset me. With that in mind, I will order all female seeds and avoid any chance of disappointment pertaining to the gender of my plants. Thanks.
ordering so-called 'feminized' seeds will not help you avoid any chance of disappointment ... if you do your research, you will find that the expensive 'feminized' seeds are still liable to produce males, and can be VERY prone to hermaphrodites ... I strongly advise to save your money, buy 'regular' seeds from a reputable breeder, and grow them out ... 'ya pays yer money and ya takes yer chances' ... I have been growing indoors most of my life, and I have actually had very few males ... I can remember trying to force males on some plants, because I couldn't seem to grow one by accident ... :smokin:
