feminized seeds are stable i would have to say. its 2010;-)

some ppl are choosing fem seeds because it takes the guess work out.
others say fem seeds are sacrilege. i use both interchangeably, i really dont mind if i end up with male plants cuz i just pull em and mulch em for use in my run of the mill garden.

Knock on wood,but I've been using fem seeds for 3 years now.And 30-40 seeds per year.Actually about 50 this year.Never had a problem yet.
I order through dopeseeds.com.They have many seed breeders seeds. I've used Nirvana's seeds,X-lines seeds.

I've used drgreenthumbs seeds this year.Great germination.Most of his plants seemed to be close in chararteristics and size.

Nirvana's 6 northern lights I grew there were different phenotypes. 2 were massive,1 large,2 medium,and 1 was a short dwarf.
The short dwarf still had about 5 oz's on it.

This is what it comes down to for me. I dont have the room to plant 6 girls hoping that exactly 3 are female and i dont waste any females or anything. With room for only 3 plants at a time, its important that i get my 3 right away, as only 3 at a time doesn't give me much weight to fill in the gaps between grows.

And i would also agree that a truly femenized seed from a legit breeder should be fine. Just grew out 3 BJ's from Nirvana, bout to do another 4, and not an issue yet!! I think the hermies are from EXTREME stress and bagseed, havnt seen many fem-herm posts happen in a while.

My experience with fem seeds is limited but all hermed at some point where other strains were definitely more stable not sure why?

I would order from a good breeder! If they are "fem seeds" from a hermi then it will most likely hermi on you. Remember you get what you pay for! I would go through a trusted breeder and pay the extra money. GL brotha!

all plants, are only as good as their parents.. if you start out with unstable garbarge, for w/e reason, and breed with it, well, more then likely, unless you do tons of work, which most breeders don't, you'll get crap out.
this holds true for plants from regular seeds, or fem'ed seeds.. if the parents tended to be hermie, will since hermaphoridism is dominant, it tends to show up in it's offspring.. meaning plants grown from unstable parents are going to be unstable.. big shocker there..
if your parents are stable, don't i wish, then the plants will also be more likely to be stable.. yay science..

so garbage in, garbage out.. this is for reg's as well as fem's..

All fem seeds from hermie
not true, usually when using a chemical like collodial sliver to force a plant to throw a banana, therefore getting pollen from an otherwise female plant, that plant would never have went hermie if it wasn't for the cs.. no cs, no hermie..
unless of course that plant was already going to hermie on it's own, then all of it's offspring will carry that trait.. read above posts..
