Feminized vs Regular Seeds

[jorgedan]

Hello everyone. just joined the forums

Typically I grow using clones but my mothers are getting a touch too big and I'm looking at starting new strains and moving away from clones to just growing from seeds.

I was wondering if anyone has noticed a marked difference in potency, trichome levels, etc. between growing from feminized or regular seeds.

I don't want to take the extra time to have sex with my plants, plus I don't have the space.  If I'll get the same results using feminized seeds,

I will just keep my eyes peeled for pollen sacs.

I use clones but in the past preferred to go with fem beans it is just a pain in the arse to  sex your plants.

I’ve been growing with clones for a while now, but I decided to try feminized seeds for my latest batch because I wanted to avoid dealing with male plants and the extra space for them. Honestly, I haven’t noticed a huge drop in potency or trichome production. In fact, my feminized plants have been looking great! The one thing I’d say is that every strain is different, so it might vary a bit, but I find feminized seeds to be super convenient.  While you’re getting into new strains, check out Girly Bongs at smokeday.com – I picked up a cool piece there, and it’s been a nice addition to my growing space! Not having to worry about pollen sacs is a big win for me.
