That can be a difficult decision to make, especially with the original seeing as that you were not the breeder/grower. Usually the thing you would need to look for is tendencies of the offspring. If you are consistently getting seeds in a dialed room it is more than likely genetic. And honestly there is know way for you to know that it was even the original ogkb that pollinated itself really to begin with. All you know is that the sample you purchased had seeds. It could have been from another female in the room that threw male flowers or even possibly stray pollen from somewhere. If the common tendencies among cookies is bagseed it lends me to believe either folks have trouble dialing her in, or hermaphrodites are common in these particular lines. A hermaphrodite is a hermaphrodite, an S1 was originally designated for describing a female that is forced using sts, or some other reversal method.
if you follow cookies they all herm and bagseed is the norm with the clones that circulate.
seeded packs have been the story since the first thread. GSC seeds itself.
If that bothers you keep away from cookies.
bag seeds are the best seeds I've every popped. most of my favorites are supposed to come from bagseed.
my time here on IC I see folks refer to S1's even when working with genetics known to herm like Chem, OG, SD etc.
maybe you could start a new thing and call those plants H-something to designate Herm Genetics if that floats your boat.
I don't grow in a dialed room, no AC or humidity control.
Anybody smoking my gear from recently will have a harder time determining lineage in bag seeds as I have had to park some boys in with my
clone onlys veg tent and there are seeds in each bud I've harvested recently from the pre flowers exposure in veg.
if I ever get a chance to disregard plant counts and go big I have a bunch of cool stuff to sort...
