A female that grows male parts is a hermi no matter how you look at it. We can speculate all day long but until we can actually map the genome of cannabis, and figure out what markers mean what we are all taking stabs in the dark.
IMO If you used a female that grew male parts, to pollenate with. You must be passing on the trait to turn hermi and produce male flowers. I have got some nice non herm plants from bag seeds but i would never use it to breed with. I do alot of breeding so there is no point in me using "fem" seeds. I bet it has more to do with if the parents used have DOM herm traits. If one parent isn't herm dom then it is less likely to show up in progeny.
If you could show me that the trait was not passed on from the hermi female used, then i would agree with you 110%. I just don't see how those genes just get lost in the X.
Gsmoke: She is looking large. If you have the ability a HPS for flower will help the bud density. CFLs grow nice looking bud, but density lacks. Are thoes tomatoe ferts miracle grow?
CS treated plants are not 'born' hermi, they only create male parts after the colloidal silver is used. This mean that they do not have the male or hermi gene, only the female gene, therefor no hermi/male offspring.
I have never had a hermi caused by the offspring of CS treated females.
