no never had a fem seed turn male mate.............sometimes fems pop a few male flowers towards end of flower and sometimes you get a few seeds...even if you have a male its no threat til about 3-4 weeks into flowering when it drops pollen........

Thinking about trying 12-12 from seed for my next grow. Either that or an Auto-Strain, do yall think they yield about the same?

I "think" 12/12 may take a little longer than autos, but not much. Yield is typically better though. Best part is you get pure weed with no rude genes so if you pop the right beans then you know exactly what you will get and have much more to choose from when doing it.

Much better choice thats for sure, but with 12/12 from seed its still abit of a gamble with what your gonna end up with when you take different phenos into it. With my rocklock grow one plant was about 2 and a hlf oz and other was less than an oz, ive got a swiss cheese which is supposed to be a good 12/12 er but mine is a dinky little thing lol bad pheno i guess. What we need is dels bubblebombs.

Cheers delboy, yeah not looking forward to the chop. Must admit ill be glad one this grows done i feel like an old codger with my back but ive come up with a plan to make life easier. Ive seen large 1msq trays at greens which are perfect to go under a 600water gonna build a little frame out of 2x2 and stick the tray ontop drill a drain hole and stick a bucket underneath to collect the run off much easier than moving plants about come feeding time.

Seems like 12/12 from seed is just a lot cleaner and less but more work at the same time.
Don't have to deal with branches shooting everywhere and clogged spaces.

Yes mate not many branches to worry about although some strains/phenos do go a bit nuts and push out branches, lots tho grow into the pole shape just one nice cola. Its only hard graft if you hand water and have lots to do then it can become a bloody chore lol.
