why? it will give u nothing... u at least have to deal with that possibility..
naw man,, in theory it's worth zero..
i been jumping through hoops for years and if macro cannabinoids are so easily inherited than this shit here is fairly worthless,,, standing by to hear something different but it will never come..
it can make a male plant produce seed,,, it can give u a glimps into what the male would be if female,, but all of that added up at the end of the day will turn out to be worth friggin squat diddly..

I guess I am saying that terpene inheritance may be much easier they anyone guessed.
I do not know, but am sure we will find out soon enough.

im surprised to see someone like tom hill say information is worthless.
thats all it is, more information about the male that you would otherwise not know.
how you choose to use this information is what matters.
i have a nice female made from two males.
i also have hybrids made with one of the males.
the male smelled like peach vapors, very close to what im looking for.
i havent found the hybrids to be as good yet, but I can see hints in them from that male.
only like 5 plants of the hybrids have been grown so far.
i know i will find much better ones as i get the time and space.
It is for the terpenes that this is most useful, altho it can be used for Cannabinoid profiles also. When you can smell, taste, and smoke a male transformed to female you get a pretty good idea of the potential progeny.
I found that when I GC'ed the terpenes of a few varieties like Thai, Afghan, Skunk #1, O Haze, and then made hybrids from them and GC'ed the terpenes of the hybrids, I could easily see and tell the parents of the progeny hybrids just by comparing the terpene print out to the parents terpene scans. I could not see which parent was male or female, but I could see the hybrid was a cross of say Thai and Afghan, that was so easy it was amazing. I could tell the parents of every hybrid just from the terpene printout, they were numbered double blind, so I would not know, but I got every one right.
I guess I am saying that terpene inheritance may be much easier they anyone guessed. Or not, maybe some terpenes are and some are not.
I do not know, but am sure we will find out soon enough.
