Conoscete quale sia il metodo per indurre la parziale reversione del sesso in piante femmina?

I don't know what to say about the lack of understanding about intersexed, hermis.
First of all does anyone think they know why hermis are so common in todays drug genepool?
Is it maybe because of the continued use of female clones that have intersexed genes?
As for Asian plants like Thai, the reason they are so prone to hermi is not because of their high quality, it is because they were poorly bred using intersexed parents.
I have mentioned it before, how if all the growers are trying to produce sinsemilla then any seeds found are likely to be from intersexed male flowers from female plants. Do this for several hundred years and you end up with lots of intersexed genes in the genpool, like Thai. Intersexed plants are not the ones to use for breeding, unless you do not care about adding more intersexed genes to the genepool. I do care and will not use them any more.
I think for most people it is a matter of connivence, and small plant numbers used for breeding. If you had a choice between a intersexed and true female of the same line and they were the same quality which would you choose to breed with? I suggest that most breeders just don't use enough plants to find TRUE FEMALES and so they settle for the best they can find with limited numbers, and if the plant is intersexed they use it anyway, not because it is really the best, but rather because they can not grow enough plants to find what they really want, quality and intersexed free.
Man has allowed intersexed plants to proliferate, it is up to man to fix the problem.
You can be part of the solution, or part of the problem, the choice is yours.
Does anyone really want intersexed palnts? Or do they just have plants they love that also happen to be intersexed? Using intersexed plants for just Cannabis production is harmless, but if the intersexed plants or clone is used to make seeds the problem is being kept alive and being spread to more and more of the drug genepool.
I don't think that anyone wants that.
If you want quality then look for quality, and don't use intersexed plants. Or you will be building on others mistakes.
Tom, do you understand that man created the hermi problems in the first place by using intersexed plants and by not using intersexed plants will fix the problems? No need to hunt them all down and kill them all off. Just don't breed with them, they are a mistake.
