maybe the seed bank wasn't reliable? how do the buds look? any pics? also how come none of the so called masters can chime in on this subject>? i honestly think it shouldn't be happening to every fem plant at all!

Buds looked great. Ordered from Seedsman in original breeders packs.

top pick is the Kali China. Amazing smoke for the ovules

Here was an old crop I cut down and trashed at week 4 due to ovules. A heart break. I should have let them continue due to the ovules. Got a 600 watt hps in the middle too high to see with supplemental fluorescents. Would have been around a pound or so

Here’s a very premature jack 47 bud. Let’s break her up and see how many dozens of large crackly ovules I can find...

I have grown hundreds of fem seeds the last 4 years and not seen what is shown here.

I want to ask anyone who has these “ovules” did you use any growth hormones like superthrive or stronger?

My favorite breeder warns these products can reverse feminized seed.

No growth hormones. No superthrive. Just Epsoma dry fertilizer or fox farms all purpose mixed into the medium and fox farm liquid nutes

Plants aren’t reversing..the ovules are just oversized and crackle. You’ve never noticed crackling in the fem bud you’ve grown?

Do you have a sativa dominant you’d recommend? Something without crazy long flowering? I may order a few fems to mix in with my next grow. If someone can tell me a specific fem strain so I can grow it too, I’d then know if it was something I’m doing

No. But i have stressed them into making a few seeds with some nanners once in a while. Lol.

I harvest a different plant grown from fem hybrids every 10 days or more on average. Been through hundreds perpetually like this.

These are all different ch9 plants but i have grown a bunch of different breeders stuff.



I really dont know what is causing your problem. I would say try classic breeder stuff but didnt you show seedsman above?

I have been favoring ch9 blue lemon thai and crosses for sativa dominant hybrids.

Bred originally from motorebel toxic blue and lemon thai. Basically a diesel/ thai cross.

Just go easy on the nutes and flower 9-10 weeks for full potency. Or 8 weeks for an up energetic brighter high.

Tastes like berries and fuel most phenos.

Heres one. Just put her in the flower room. She will usually make thinner leaves as she blooms.

Plants look awesome man. Seeing how you’ve done hundreds and no issue, I’m thinking it’s probably me. I’ve ran Dinafem, Ace seeds, Sweet seeds and royal queen. I really want to run ace Kali china and Dinafem deep cheese again and hope I get no big ovules. Those two strains are really something special. Amazing smells. Have you used any of the breeders I mentioned?

I’m about to take a sample from the deep cheese and blue widow. They have another week an half or two weeks. Checking for crackles after a quick and harsh oven dry for about an hour

I grew a pretty nice dinachem once. I was only gifted the one seed. But no problems at all on that plant. I would recomend. But it doesnt offer the psychedelic high of the BLT.

All those breeders should be fine i think.

I havent grown any new oregon or colorado breeders stuff or any of these clone only s-1’s. Or any flavor of the month strain.

You can put the buds in a paper tower and microwave on low for 20 second bursts.

Turn the bud and move off the wet spots on the towel. Let cool between bursts.

If it gets too hot or burns its kind if ruined. But done right works great! Used to test when i wanted to harvest this way.

My dry buds will grind in to powder. I have not seen the things shown here.

Maybe an immature seed in there once in a while.

Will do the microwave burst. I ran the dinachem last run and have one in there right now. Is a very healthy strain with good yield and potency. I wasn’t a fan of the taste. It was nice but just not special taste to me.

My dinachems were mostly just a real sweet taste. Kinda sugary in one pheno. One pheno wanted to have a slight dirty lemon smell and taste. Main smell and taste was sweet.
