Fem Seeds 12/12 from germ????

[Point 5]

Afternoon,

So standard procedure when you get yur prize pack you google what you got.

i landed myself so really nice sounding strains i'm not going to lie but one has thrown me a little.....

Best Mango

Best Mango originates from the legendary clone Somango. This boutique strain conquered the palates of all connoisseurs in early 2000. With great care we crossed this with an elite Genofarm clone. Best Mango remains faithful to the original clone and has new and harmonious notes of aroma. This new cross now gives vigour and stability which increases their production. Suitable for outdoor but must be protected from cold and rain. This plant is full of sweet resin production and has a euphoric effect. Very high at first leading to a sedative effect. Undoubtedly, one of the Worldwide favourites from the Genofarm armoury. Germinate directly to 12/12.

THC: Very High
CBD: Low
Flowering days: 58/62 days
Outdoor(/plant): 400/700gr
Indoor(/m2): 450/500gr
Height: 1,0/1,80m

Taken from https://en.seedfinder.eu/strain-info/Be ... arm_Seeds/

you can see what has confused me in green. These seeds are fems (no mention of auto) is this anything anyone has come across before? not heard of a photo going to 12/12 straight off the bat

I could be wrong here but did some research!!@these days most of the autoflower seeds are feminized rather than regular because although autoflower provides 100% flowering, it cannot be cloned. This means that that you have to buy new seeds every time for growing You've probably seen the term “feminized” used frequently as you browse the internet for all things cannabis seeds. Both autoflowering and photoperiod strains can be feminized. All it means is that a breeder modified a particular strain to produce only female plants.

Looking at the parents there is no Ruderalis in the genes so its a photoperiod not an auto flower strain.

i get that autoflowers are in flower from the start so to speak but they are run at 24/0, 20/4 or 18/16.


Ive never come across a 12/12 from start when looking at seeds, its confused me

Weird. I know people do it for SOGs, but I wonder why it would be a blanket recommendation for a seed. I have heard Somango is really tough to grow, so maybe it’s best to just get it done as quickly as possible? That seems kind of nuts though. Ha. Why even keep breeding with it if that’s the case? I just went to this breeders site and looked at the strain description. On there they just say that this strain could be run 12/12 from the jump, not that it needs to be. Maybe Seedfinder messed up the translation or something.

further research on breeders site https://www.genofarm.com/en/fem/best-mango.html

From germination one can switch directly to 12hr lighting. Its flowers, which are full and compact and extremely fragrant, are even more flavorful if the plant is cultivated organically. So don’t go cheap on material for your plants in order to produce the highest quality Best Mango

I'm dropping them an email me thinks

I’m guessing they’re just saying “can” be run from 12/12 as a sales pitch to SOG and more cash crop oriented growers. Ha.
