I hear the they are like 90% change they will be female, the number is arbitrary, but the chances are good that they are.

nice 1 dusto...you may be able to help me out with this 1 allso.. my first ak48 i harvested 2weeks ago had like 10seeds in.. but there was no male in the room and none of the aks turned hermie.. only the blueberry.. so im guesing that 1 of the blueberrys pollenated the aks.. so does this mean my seed that are from the ak48 are in fact a sort of cross of ak n blueberry? n would it be worth growing out the seeds?? thanks in advance;)

Well, if the blue was the only hermie and the ak48 is seedy now, id have to say yes. And who knows, the cross might be good and it might be crap. Your the lucky son-of-a-bitch that gets to try it!!!

They will be more than likely female, but will also carry the hermie trait......

Plants turn hermaphroditic in two ways. Some plants are programmed genetically as hermaphrodites. These plants will produce male flowers on female plants no matter what environmental situations they face. Other plants are induced to grow male flowers under stress conditions. Some plants may be more genetically predisposed to hermaphrodite under stress, but all plants may exhibit male flowers as a sign of stress created by growing conditions. This hermaphroditism is not genetic and does not affect the plant's progeny. Sometimes plants that aren't hermaphroditic outdoors will grow male flowers when grown indoors as a stress response. Stresses can include lighting regimen irregularities, low light conditions or response to hormones.
If a genetic hermaphrodite is crossed to a non-hermaphroditic female, about half of the resulting plants will be hermaphroditic. If the hermaphroditism was caused by environmental factors, then none, some or all of the progeny will exhibit male flowers depending on whether the plants have inherited a tendency towards hermaphroditism under stress conditions and whether the plants face those conditions.
If you have only a few plants and are willing to spend the time making daily inspections for male flowers, you can produce a sinsemilla crop. It's important to remove the male flowers before they open and release pollen.
