funny how the different people see this topic so drastically differently..
I have both.. i have for instance two autoflower strains active (both have a diary) - the single White Haze in one box and three Hindu Kush in another box.. they obviously all come from seeds, and i already have a couple of more autoflowers (therefore seed-based) grows planned in, and the seeds at home..
Then i also have a 6 week old White Widow plant, which i don't know the sex of yet (it was a regular seed, so neither feminized, nor autoflower), and i just took a cutting two days ago, which i have put into 12/12 today, so i know whether i will make it a motherplant (if female), or if i grow it to collect the pollen and then make a cross with the Hindu Kush (if male) to make my own seeds.
But even that will not keep me from buying new and different seeds, as i like to test and not limit myself.
happy growing!
Why limit yourself
