You mean Hermie because of environmental stress? I thought dubi and other growers said it's a genetic issue, so you need to be lucky!? Not sure, i'm also growing them for the first time. I tested the weed from 2 different plants/growers and it's very special high and smell/taste. :)
No idea, just asking. My friend wants a nice effect easy to grow sativa and I recommended these to him based on the effect and taste descriptions. But I hadn't read about the Hermie tendencies.

Very special sativa for sure. Potent clear and slightly euphoric. Can be devastating too when you had too much or mixing with other weed. 🥴 I have a good sleep also after the mighty high.


What do you mean semi fem? Seeds made with a Hermie will most likely be Hermies also
My experience is that you will get female plants. But i think you have more experience and i have not tested that often....

I don't have any experience because I have never grown seeds made with Hermies on purpose. I just said what I remembered reading in Marijuana Botany.

But it says selfed so I don't know really.

What I have some experience with, are sativas that give a very high percentage of females, and the few males are intersex. I think that's somewhat common.

I’ve grown a few hermy seeds…. First few grows were outdoor bag seed. Also grew seeds that Hermed from environmental stress.

The ones from environmental stress(indoors over ferted) grew fine outdoors no issues. Grew ~100 out, zero seeds.

The bag seed from outdoors(all females zero males) did herm slightly at end of flower grown indoors …. Grown poorly at that.

I think if it’s a generational issue avoid them or accept the fact that it could well get some seed (personally I don’t care too much about this).

If it’s stress induced there’s a good chance they won’t herm if you grow them right.

Just my 2c

Oh yes... a new experience for me since i've not grown much real sativas/landraces yet and got mostly females now with different strains like Panama(2/2 female), NewCaledonia(2/3)and the Pandora Skunk NLD(2/3 female). 👌

That's exactly how my Purple Cloud cross is doing, never had seeds outdoor but indoor you sure get some bananas in late flower. It's made from Passion #1 outdoor strain.

Kebabs were invented in Germany I believe by a guy of Turkish descent. He should be given an earl hood imo like old mate sandwich

The lord of sandwich John Montagu! Yes Döner Kebab is an invention of a Turkish German in Berlin! And the croissant / medialuna was an invention of a turk in Austria when the osmans beset Vienna! Food travels like humans. It all started with nomads

dutch passion made seeds by using intersex pollen from overripe females, so called 'rodelization'. i think soma 'invented' this technique for the modern seed market.
its like a survival mechanism of the plant to make sure there will be seeds even when theres no male around.
i remember many people were complaining about lot of intersex plants from those first feminized seeds that were available.
probably also the reason why a lot of people dont like feminized seeds to this day. this and greedy fuckheads who dont breed properly.

that is a female that is over ripe , not a ture intersex. there is a difference
