"Male hermies arent bad"

@Mudballs2.0 seriously, you don't understand what you're talking about. You haven't got a clue what the terms you're using mean. Then you're claiming that you're right and others don't understand. No, we understand. Some of us have put the work in. I've been saying from the start that it's not about chromosomes but genes. Even named one of the genes at play for you. But you're the only one who knows what's right, right? How many generations are you at with your Tri line? Mine are at f17. Every parent a stable Tri plant. You're a real gangsta, pfffff yeah ok, go play with your gun, but remember, Benny Blanco was a punk.

I'm more familiar with female plants that start producing Nanners, which I think is the classical "Hermie" that most growers do not like.

Once I had a plant that produced really good smoke, from Mexican bagweed that has all those seeds.

Since the smoke was good, I tolerated the extra seeds and made sure to segregate the dried plant from other plants.

Seeds are a necessary part of growing. Hermie seeds are better than no seeds at all ... in some situations.

Does this paper exist?



es S-D = Sex_det1 genes. Which it’s been a while since I read the paper Sam put up show how sex determinism worked in the X to Autosome lines, but I’m pretty sure was the name given to a single gene, within the autosomal region, that is responsible for “maleness”.

I went looking for that paper. I looked for the Tom hill has arisen thread where Sam posted it in response to a question I asked him about the haze line, and then I went for Sam's alphabetised bibliography thread. Both deleted. Have we got moths or what's eating our site?

That's too bad bet it would have been a good read, Thanks for looking!

I have what I thought was a male Choc Thai I was going to breed with. I pulled off the first few sets of flowers because the females weren't advanced enough to pollinate yet. Anyway, this male then changed sex to female. No more male flowers, how it seems fully fem? :dunno:

I grew up in the days when seeded bud was common, and one of the best highs I ever had came from a fully seeded hermie plant. I do wonder what genetics might be getting thrown out in these times of hermie discrimination and hate.

I'll admit to some hermies in the closet
best effect for my needs, a low anxiety feel
pain in the ass, but worth it

Production of Feminized Seeds of High CBD Cannabis sativa L. by Manipulation of Sex Expression and Its Application to Breeding.​

Sex of C. sativa L. (2n = 20) is genetically determined by one pair of sex chromosomes X and Y, where male gender of dioecious plants is determined by heterogametic XY chromosomes, while dioecious female and monoecious or hermaphrodite plants exhibit homogametic chromosomes XX

The findings confirmed previous reports that several factors, like sex-determining genes, sex chromosomes, epigenetic control by DNA methylation, and microRNAs, and physiological regulation with phytohormones influence sex expression of predetermined cannabis plants


im gonna start fkn swinging at you people soon...i mean really fkn swinging too.
no wait...im gonna leave you all in your own mental hell and go listen to music..

Hmmm the problem being if using an intersex is that it is passed, if it's for a plant to grow and smoke who cares but when it's breeding stock well hmmm, it's like TH used to say "don't throw the baby out with the bath water" and I can understand that thinking when breeding lines and selecting further down ie thinking that plant may carry something beneficial to the mean, but for me no get them out, look they're found mostly in tropical canna tmk and should imo be culled regardless of whether they have a great high etc etc go through enough numbers and get rid.
Maybe instead of thinking about what we are throwing out we should think about what we are carrying forward.
On a side note some of my fav female plants have had issues mostly sterility and I've often wondered why, just wondered if others find such plants?
