quick question

[bluntman 420]

ok i got my blueberry seeds in themail today and tehy are feminized. i got 5 of them. im germinating2 of them. question is since they are feminized i know im guaranteed females but i want to produce more seeds. i dont wanna have to spend 125 bucks online for another pack. so how do i go about gettin more seeds from 2 femaleS?

All you can do is hope for a male...

 

[bluntman 420]

what if i herm one of em to polinate the female? cuz with feminized seeds i dont think ill get a male right? edit: but how would i got about herming a female?

 

[bluntman 420]

im growing in 15 cm pots. will i run into trouble if i flower when they are 6-7 inches tall?

 

[stihgnobevoli]

get some bagssed and hope for a male then cross it with one of your bb fems.

Bluntman if you are hoping for a seed or two from a dutch passion feminized strain,they've unfortunately got you covered lol.Your chances of getting 100% seedless sinsemilla from a dutch passion fem strain are kinda small lol,I doubt you'll have a problem.If you want to be sure and create a hermie,after the plant flowers under 12/12 a week or two,simply interrupt the 12 hour dark cycle with 1-2 hours of light 4 or 5 nights in a row,that'll do ya.The problem with growing a seed from a fem strain that gives seeds is more than likely,the offspring wil also be seeded,if this is what you want though its not hard to dn the other hand female seeds NL are likely to grow you a 1000% female sinsemilla plant from my experience with both companies.A good DP strain?Flo

WTF are you talking about?? Offspring are Never Pre Seeded truly bred or reversed/feminized (although breeding with a reversed/feminized parent may lead to more hermies). bluntman get you some standard seeds and make you some beans. You could feminize some yourself if culling males is not your bag. ballastman has outlined how to do this with the Light Poisoning technique.

Humm i dont think it´s a good idea to polinize a female with hermas...but i´m really not sure...

WWM Why are you here?Didnt you put me on ignore?Why dont you be a man then and really ignore me?I dont use buttons and such,I wont respond to you anymore and if you want to ignore me,why dont you just be a man and do it.Dont follow me like capt kirk did,if you dont like me,IGNORE me.

 

[bluntman 420]

k so i got it fugured out. thnx WWM. ill beat up a female till she turns herm. then let her polinate my other female. but not collect seeds from the herm and collect the seeds from the female the he/she impregnated.

I pulled nearly and OZ off of my FFS C99 and found 3 viable seeds in the bottom of one of my jars. But why worry about seeds. If you take a couple of clones (about 3 or 4 to be on safe side in case some die) from BOTH plants, and wait to see which plant is the best smoke, and then keep the best looking clone from that plant and keep her as a Mom, that way you will be able to take clones from her for years to come, no more worrying about seeds ,.. CANABIS will create seeds no matter what, its how they survive when there is no males about .

this is what soma has to say on the feminized seeds...

Story by Soma


Creating feminized cannabis seeds is an art. Just like art, there are a few different methods of application. I have written about some of my different methods of making seeds in previous HIGH TIMES articles. I have used gibberellic acid, pH stress, light stress, and fertilizer stress to force my female plants to make seeds. All of these methods are harsh on the plants, and some, like the gibberellic acid, are not organic. In my search for cleaner, more earth-friendly ways of working with the cannabis plant, I have found a new way to make feminized seeds.

Feminized seeds occur as a result of stress, rather than genetics. All cannabis plants can and will make male flowers under stress. Certain strains like a higher pH, some a lower one. Some like a lot of food, some like much less. There is quite a lot of variety in marijuana genetics, and you can’t treat every plant the same way.

It takes many harvests before you really get to know a particular strain. Just like getting to know human friends, it takes time. I have grown the same strains for close to a decade, and am truly getting to know every nuance the different plants exhibit. I can recognize them from a distance. I must say that I get a lot of help from my friends, both in making seeds and in learning new and better ways of working with this sacred plant.

I named this new method "Rodelization," after a friend who helped me realize and make use of this way of creating female seeds. After growing crop after crop of the same plants in the same conditions, I noticed that if I flowered the plants 10-14 days longer than usual, they would develop male "bananas." A male banana is a very slight male flower on a female marijuana plant that is formed because of stress. Usually they do not let out any pollen early enough to make seeds, but they sometimes do. They are a built-in safety factor so that in case of severe conditions, the plant can make sure the species is furthered.

To me, a male banana is quite a beautiful thing. It has the potential of making all female seeds. Many growers out there have male-banana phobia. They see one and have heart palpitations, they want to cut down the entire crop, or at the very least take tweezers and pluck the little yellow emergency devices out. I call them "emergency devices" because they emerge at times of stress.

In the Rodelization method, the male banana is very valuable. After growing your female plants 10-14 days longer than usual, hang them up to dry, then carefully take them off the drying lines and inspect for bananas. Each and every banana should be removed, and placed in a small bag labeled very accurately. These sealed bags can be placed in the fridge for one or two months and still remain potent.

For the next phase, you need to have a separate crop that’s already 2 1/2 weeks into flowering. Take your sealed bags of pollen out of the fridge, and proceed to impregnate your new crop of females. To do this, you must first match the female plant and the pollen from the same strain in the previous crop. Shut all the fans in the growroom down. Then take a very fine paintbrush, dip it in the bag of pollen, and paint it on the female flower. Do this to each different strain you have growing together. I have done it with up to 10 different kinds in the same room with great success.

I use the lower flowers to make seeds, leaving the top colas seedless for smoking. This method takes time (two crops), but is completely organic, and lets you have great-quality smoke at the same time you make your female seeds. If you’re one of those growers who’s never grown seeds for fear of not having something good to smoke, you will love this method.

You can also use this pollen to make new female crosses by cross-pollinating. The older females with the male bananas can be brought into the room with the younger, unpollinated females after they are three weeks into flowering. Turn all of the circulation fans on high, and the little bits of pollen will proceed to make it around the room. Do this for several days. Six to seven weeks later, you will have ripe 100% feminized seeds; not nearly as many as a male plant would make, but enough to start over somewhere else with the same genetics.

As a farmer who has been forced to move his genetics far away from where they started, I know very well the value of seeds. My friend Adam from ThSeeds in Amsterdam has a motto that I love to borrow these days: Drop seeds not bombs.

brainthor want a laugh bro?Dutch passion was doing this looong before soma thought of it,hell I was messing around with it years before soma came out with this rodelization nonsense lol."I name this new method rodelization" gimme a break somer.I was rodelizing back in 2001 I think when I read it on DP's site,its there for all to see and has been for years.I really don't like falseness..

 

[kigy]

On the chance you don't pull a male from your pack have you ever considered just mothering one of the plants and taking clones?

 

[Guest]

I don't want to encourage you to breed with Feminized seeds bro. Get you some Standard seeds and Feminize your own.

 

[Guest]

I'd wholeheartedly recommend female seeds NL ice, grapefruit or white widow for moms or a perpetual grow,my clones are seedless though I did find one seed in one of my GF plants.These are good stable potent female strains,no herm problems out of the three strains.Their cindy99 blows the big one though

 

[Guest]

Can you say clone????



beats the hell out of working seed starts

 

[bluntman 420]

i dont wnna spend 140 bucks for a 10 pack of blueberry seeds lol. i mean come on. im either gonna do the male banna thing, or take 2 clones, put em in a seperate can stress one of em and polinate the female one so i can get seeds. dont wanna lose this strain.
