I have one hydroponic bubbler system and it only grows one plant.
How do I tell if a seed is female before I plant it, is there any way? If not do I need to buy them feminized online?
Also, if I do not buy them online, or don’t find a female seed, should I grow a bunch of seeds in soil and wait to see which ones are female?
If so about how long should I let them grow before able to tell?
