    Well I have to say I am a believer after my 2 tests, there is also people on you tube who reckon it works. I will try to choose 5 males and 5 females from my seeds and see what happens. It could have been purely coincidence I suppose.

    Hi mate.... it may have been coincidence but there may be some truth in the matter, who knows, i guess in your test you proved its correct, alls i know is the male seed i predicted grew alot faster and in a different way to the other 4 fems i grew at the same time, unfortunatley i didnt have the space to grow it to maturity... so im still non the wiser.... seems to have sparked a wee bit of anger me uploading that picture, first time on the forum iv been made to feel like an utter idiot haha.... oh well the OP asked if theres a way and it was only a suggestion he has nothing to loose by putting the theory to the test anyway.... guess some people on here forgot to insert their manpax

    I will do 100 of each next growing season and put this arguement to bed once and for all. BG discussions are the best.

    I always thought fem seeds where from plants forced to pollenate itself.

    You really need two plants as the first female that makes female pollen hasn't really got enough time to produce viable pollen and pollinate it's self and make seeds before death so two plants are generally used one to make female pollen and the other to produce seeds after pollination

    I am a noob and dont have much experience but from the seeds iv seen the fem seeds are tiny little pips compared to the regular seeds iv seen, and from the picture above you can defo distinguish the simularities between seeds, out of 9 seeds we predicted only 2 females! Wish i had the time and the space to put this to bed! Maybe next spring il plant all the reg seeds i have am prove this to myself.... it worked for cmore, but not for MC........
