Hey all,
Long time no post!
Here's my delima.. I had a fem Amnesia Haze go hermi (severely) and it pollinated a femmed Super Lemon Haze. Needless to say, I have a bunch of seeds as a result. I've recently started a few of these seeds and was curious what my chances may be of getting a stable female from the cross of these two plants? Opinions please.
Peace, Farmer Rich
The odds are 100% that the off spring will be hermi too. Hermis always produce more hermis. Sorry for the sad news. Some folks grow hermis with good strain genetics then just watch closely and clip the male balls. You can do this if you are indoor and just have 1 or 2 plants and check them daily but it is still a gamble.
Hey Rudy,
That's exactly what I was assuming.. bummer. I was looking forward to what a Super Lemon/Amnesia Haze cross would be like. You know I could try spraying them with Dutch Masters Reverse, which I just happen to have. I remember a couple of years ago discussing this product and how it prevents hermaphroditeism.
Peace, Farmer Rich
You sure?. I thought I read in a different thread that was not always the case, could be wrong though.Quote:

It would have been such a nice cross, and the pheno was a blend of GrandDaddyPurple, (coloration of the leaves being dark green with blue hues to purple if I got temps down) and the mild manners of the Blueberry, (And quick to bud, not a lot of stretch)
Sucks, but the 2 I tried are both dead now,.... I might try another outdoors, since the GDP was stable outside.
i thought that i read a hrmi gives you feminized seeds, but i could be wrong.
I read 90% female here. I just planted a bunch for the first time, so I'll know in a few months what the % really is.Quote:

I've recently planted 3 of the beans and will probably flower 1 using Reverse. I also have 2 more of the Amnesia Haze beans and plan on holding off on those until I get through testing AH/SLH cross. Only reason I'm flowering one is these plants tend to get big, particularly the SLH, which can stretch up to 3.5 times in height during flower.Quote:

Hogwash. I have had many throw a nanner and used the pollen to fertilize them. I have one that is more stable than the momma.Quote:
