Discussion about amount of female seeds in a feminized pack

[Apexsmoker420]

I'm a newbie here looking to start my first grow. All comments are appreciated!!

So I was wondering about what the ratio is between female seeds and male seeds in a pack of let's say ten feminized seeds.

If your seeds are feminized they should all be female, that's what feminized means. Feminized seeds = female seeds. Although it's not an exact science so maybe 1 in 10 will be male unless the breeder is really bad in which case all might be male.

Oh ok I read that because their feminized you still won't have all females. So I figured I'd ask and see what the truth was

I have used a lot of feminized seeds and have not had a male as yet. regards

If you buy off a good breeder then feminized seeds should be all female, or atleast a very high ratio (90-95%). A bad breeder or bad stock however could end up with 100% males from 'feminized' seeds. There have been a few posts here and there on this site about people having that problem, but that's more related to breeder/stock. So stick with a good reputable breeder and you should get all females from feminized seeds.

Make your own feminized seeds using Colloidal Silver

You can get it at any health food store..
I make my own with 99.9% silver in distilled water.
CS is a great cure all right next to Pot.

Last year I left just a couple buds on the plants and sprayed them with a mist of CS.
All seeds were Female...

Please create more seeds than you need and start 'em to be planted in the wild.
Plant limits be damned.
