This was from AMS, and though they clearly state that there's "no guarantee" with seed sex, I don't think I'll be going back there for the next seed batch.

I may not even bother with the expensive feminized again either, if this is the success rate. I'll take my chances and keep a close watch, as I had to do anyway.
