Thanks for the interest.

Current thinking is all female with minor variation within the basic phenotype.

If they are stable and of good quality then its as easy as accepted methods of produceing femmed seeds if it scales up.

You have more heart than i do, that male would have come down before he tainted my male box. Too bad it threw female parts aswell "it" had good resin coverage. You might also have got the lanky plantsl, because that male looked real lanky also. I've had males pass on it's tructure more often than the female.

My 2 cents says you are going to be pickin nanners.

Hi BH , i fully expect some nanners or worse from these as well.

Seems no better than stressing or long flowering a female to produce pollen and that must be the worst way of doing femmed in my experience , have grown some pathetic commercial seed produced this way and would never touch them again.

Saw the fully mature male outdoors sept 2008 season and it looked good at five feet with a classic xmas tree structure , soil was yellow underneath with handfulls of pollen and had a good smell and stickey stems.

This male gets binned anyway as environmental stress alone caused it to show intersex traits , flowering these out purely for the interest and it might save someone else wasteing time and space on similar oddities.

I'm kind of sorry i haven't kept my seeds.
I had three males that flowered.
I guess cuttings and putting them directly under 12/12 stressed them to much. Check out the resin on them. :D

Nice pics coxswain , have smoked a lot worse than that looks before.

Since they will probably dissapoint , will flower them from tonight in small pots and get them out of the way before the log jam in the run up to outdoor planting starts.

Will be compact and a little stressed which should help bring out the hermies and satisfy my curiosity and bury the concept to my satisfaction.

Usually its the female that'll throw out pollen, rather than the male throwing out a few pistils, so this is very cool and interesting (especially as most people would've culled it as a hermi rather than letting it grow beans) ... now we'll just have to wait to see what they grow into! :)

These pictures are beautiful amigo , was the pollen fertile? If yes I prefer to see these male/lady in your garden than in mind.

Yes ... it was fertile. But I threw these seeds away as I didn't think anything serious can come out of it. :hide:
Males from which I took these cuttings did the open pollination on my girls. So I have plenty of "regular" seeds. If anything interesting ever comes out of this project I'm sure I can stress them to the same point once again. :D

All four have now showed sex , two male and two female , now to see if the girls are stable as they have a crazy strong smell for their size.
There are a number of minor leaf deformities present which i seldom see , almost like a partial reveg but in 20/4 hours from the start.
