My last grow was with DP's Skunk #11 which is feminised. I grew 4 plants and out of the 4, none hermied. However I did have to harvest those a bit early so they may have turned hermie if given more time.

I'm growing another Dutch Passion strain at the moment, Euforia. It's only at the 3 week stage so I can't comment on this one, sorry!

Stay away from feminised seeds. They can turn hermie especially DPs femmed seeds. imo standard regular seeds are best.

Nah I bought the seeds at a local head shop, I live in the UK

Of course feminised seeds can turn hermie but ehh..I believe regular seeds can turn hermie also? So in my eyes they're worth it, especially as I've had no problems with hermies.

i grew Dutch Passion's Fem'd powerplant from seed vegged it for about 8 weeks and flowered for another 10 and no male flowers appeared at all.

DP does have a disclaimer on their site about hermi tendancies with their feminised seeds though

that's what DP has to say about their own seeds.


Quote:
Dutch passion FEM

In an experiment done in 1999 we grew 15 varieties of "feminized" seeds. We started with 30 seeds per variety. The goals were: 1) to determine the percentages of female, male, and hermaphroditic plants. 2) to compare the uniformity (homogeneity) among plants from "feminized" seeds with those grown from "regular" seeds.
1. The results were excellent. Nine out of fifteen varieties had 100% female offspring. Percentages of female plants from the other 6 varieties were between 80 and 90%. These plants were all hermaphrodites, producing their male flowers at the end of their lifecycle. Seed-setting hardly took place. No males were found.

Sold in packs of 10.

Dont buy Dutch Passion Feminized Seeds!Ive used them a few times and every single time ive gotten at least a couple hermies with absolutely NO stress in the growroom-lightleaks,temps,airflow-everything was perfect and I still got seeds.Dutch Passions Standard seeds are fine however with the exception of Blueberry,Mazar, and Purple 1.Blueberry has a high male rate and has stunted,wierd twisting Veg growth,Mazar molds easily and the high sucks,and purple 1 has a low germination rate(in my experiences).Do yourself a favor-buy standard seeds,grow a mother and take clones
