How many regular seeds should I germinate?

Hey guys, just got my 10 reg seeds in the mail. Im wondering If I will have enough room to germinate all 10. I will be keeping all males for breeding, and im kinda worried about this strain because in some pictures its shown growing 10 feet tall, where in others it is around 2ft tall (with lst) , I have an area like 10x10 indoors to veg and might keep some but definitely going to have to move some outside to flower including all males.

What is the strain? I would only keep the best male. He will supply all the pollen you need. I don't usually pop a whole pack unless I'm going on a pheno hunt for a specific trait. I would pop 3 or 4 and save the rest in the fridge for next time, but I always pick a good female and clone her, so I don't use that many seeds, and I get a consistent product.

Flip to flower around 8--9" tall. Let the whole crop finish. You'll have to weigh the seeds. Too many to count. I recently harvested a single seeded plant that was less then 20" tall. It produced 5.60 grams of seeds. Enough for years and years.

You can control that with an early flip. 30" tall wouldn't be a problem.
what do you mean, your saying let all the females finish inside? basically anything i put outside here will insta flower. Should I germ all 10 since most could be males anyway?

If you want seeds. The basic way is to let the whole crop run its course. Don't remove the males. You want females to be pollinated by more then one male.

There's other ways to make seeds on a smaller scale. Isolation of the male(s). Then pollinating one female.

If you have the patience for a seeded crop. Making butter or tincture out the bud. Let the whole Damn thing grow. Males and females.

Let it run longer then 50 days. 60-70. Make sure of the mature rate of the seeds...

Really? Have you grown it before? I looked it up on Seedfinder and it has lousy reviews. what attracted you to this strain? There must be something special about it that I'm not seeing. 4.7 out of 10 on reviews is pretty bad.
