Sounds like a plan Shasta.
Do u know what WW ur friend used? Mr. Nice or GHS or a cut?

The one rule for seeds if u want sensimila remember if u see balls Yank and Spray, with plain old water. Make sure all the corners, floor, and plants are sprayed down. Pollen is can ruin a whole run. BE CAREFULL!!
But, I have to say from seed is the best for me. Allows me to decide what I want.
Plus I find the plants from seed are more vigorus and tend to have a better yield.

Good luck with the seeds Shasta. If u ever need anything hit me up.
