Breeder made 'regular' seeds that only have male offspring?

I bought some automatic seeds in regular form, so male and females included. I pollinated some plants of the same strain this way to get heaps of seeds. Some seeds have popped up by themselves where the females were grown. So far, 3 out of 3 plants which have shown gender are all male.

Is it possible the breeder has found a way to create male and female plants that only produce male offspring? Kind of like feminized in reverse, but also with one generation step between the first seed being a random gender and the next being all male?

why would a breeder do that?

its the luck of the draw.....

It's a numbers game. In order for statics and percentages to be accurate it takes larger numbers than you're using. When you pop 3 seeds you're starting with such a small group that you honestly render statistics and odds useless. You're just as likely to get 3 females as you are 3 males. Now if you popped 10 seeds you still might get 3/7 either ways. But when you increase that number say to 100 seeds. You be much closer to 50/50.

I plan on 50/50. So if I wanted 3 females I'd pop 6. And deal with what I got.

Why would they do that? Maybe because I started with 8x regular seeds and now I have well over 400x.

The same reason why Monsanto makes their seeds produce infertile plants.

Return sales.

I know, but while I'm waiting for the numbers game I thought I would just ask to see if anyone heard of the all male concept.

3 seeds won't tell you anything. There are people in the strain and breeder forums who say they got 10 out of 10 males in a pack. Clearly those breeders aren't selling only male seeds since dozens of others got females.

Luck of the draw.

Probability theory says a coin tossed 10 times in a row can come up heads all ten times. It may not happen very often, but it can happen.

its likely not entirely luck of the draw. Its sensible that the conditions of the seed making room, resources, age, stress, etc has much to do with the chromosomes assembled within the seeds.

there is no logical reason to breed male seeds

i have got 10 females from 10 seeds,ive got 8 males from 10 seeds....

you wont get return sales if you sell male seeds

Hey guys I know I'm off topic but can someone tell me a good coco blend everything I find is pretty much soil will coco. Can I use straight coco. Or coco and pearlite. I was gonna do coco loco but its not straight coco... Or if I just did peat moss and pearlite? Is that the same?

stick with peat moss and perlite for a trouble free experience when fed right.

You missed the point. It's not the first seeds I bought. It the next generation of seeds bred from them. Original seeds were like 50 - 50.

I just checked another 2 plants... also both male.

Something weird is going on.

Sample size too small. Pop 15-20 more, then report back. {and you are the "breeder" of those seeds}

You can sell that semiautomatic pollen on IG. There is always someone who will buy anything. Hell, if it was the right strain, I might buy some of it myself. If I could get a couple of my strains to flower in June, I could smoke my way to the finish on the long winded sativa crosses.

impossible. to create seeds you need a female, the female genes will always be present.
