Re: Feminized Seeds or Regular Seeds

Personally I am glad to have used bag seed and not payed anything for my first seeds. Although I was knowledgeable of cannabis and the way it grows I still made mistakes that in my own opinion would have been a waste on seeds that I payed for, feminized or not. It would have been a waste of good genetics because of the mistakes I made. From my experience I would suggest using some seeds you found rather than purchasing them, get one under your belt and then spend money on seeds. The information gained from your first grow will be greater than all the reading you could ever do. Also, feminized seeds are good but I have heard if you have both feminized and regular seeds of the same strain and grow them side by side and smoke them side by side the regular seeds are better smoke. Whether this is true or not I don't know, I have never grown feminized seeds myself, but it made sense to me considering there is some augmentation to the plants genetics either by hormone treatment or light stress to create hermaphrodite plants and breed feminized seeds. I don't like eating meat that is treated with hormones little own growing pot that is treated with hormones. Once again for some one like myself who tries to keep my life as clean and natural as I think regular seeds are the way to go.

Have you thought about using clones, and not messing with germination at all?
