About 7 weeks flowering now. Pollinated a few buds with zamaldelica and definitely got some seeds growing.
Aint you going ti have a lot of hermies with this cross?
Its in PHxMLW feminized thread.. feminezed crossed with regular wil result what?
Terpeno, thanks for the explanation.
i got the same experience,
what you can not do is revert by quimical ways a female clone in a male and take that polen to polinize a feminized plant., because you will got lots of herm.
but i think: if one standart male plant who have little herm pistils polinize a feminized plant the coming seeds will be normal rate M/F herm.
i'm doing that at this time, got one big male of PCK who tragically show some pistils, and take this male to polinize PH x M fem... i think the seeds will bring normal rate M/F - and low Herm..
what you think?
Leaf yellowing seems to be very common by this strain, no matter what i do.

Um, what?
Feminized plants (mother plant treated with a solution to make the resulting generation female aka S1) produce herms at the same rate as any M/F line - very low. Crossing feminized plants to standard M/F lines with pollen from a male will also produce the same rate of herms as any standard M/F line - very low.
If any plant throws a herm in flower and that pollen touches the plant it came from, the resulting seeds will have a higher instance of herm, but generally produce decently normal buds with very few herm flowers on them in my experience. When people talk about herm generations, they usually mean plants that are stressed, then inbred continually through stress. This process was used way back (more or less unsuccessfully) for feminized lines before modern methods were developed.
If any plant throws a herm in flower and that pollen touches another plant (not the same plant - for instance a PHM x Zamaldelica) those beans are whats known as an R1 and will be almost entirely female and have a very low instance of herm in my experience.
You can cross R1 to S1 or M/F without any issue as well. As an example, here is an R1 line I created called "Jacket" which is (P91 x Princess Diesel) x Destroyer. The initial cross was male Destroyer x female P91/Princess Diesel, but the second, more or less feminized generation (shown here) was the result of R1 breeding.

Herms are generally more environmentally dependent. Plants that have a tendency to herm generally will do so in stressful, less than adequate conditions. Light leaks, nutrient deficiencies, pest outbreaks, lack of water, etc. can all push plants that have a tendency to herm over the limit.
Hey mate, what light is it under?Looks like it has had light leaks or not enough light. Or maybe just a little mutant.! Or needs way longer , I've had plants like that before. They never really finished and were very foxtailed like that.I have a PH X M a few weeks under 11/13 and she is just started to show sex. Very haze Dom looking.Purple Haze x Malawi Monster, Flowering Day 72 from clone in 6L of Soil. Actually 10 hours of light.
Maybe i screwed something up with to much nitrogen, lower buds looking already ripe, upper buds are far from ready and have almost no resin.
The stretch huge, i put the plant under 11/13 light schedule and it continue to grow for about 8 weeks (+/-).
