female gone male

[likemclever]

I have been told that a female plant that produces male flowers will produce seeds that grow only females,is this right-

This is what I have read on the subject:

The Cannabis Grow Bible/ Greg Green p.105,106

â??Hermies cause problems because they may carry the hermaphrodite trait with their offspring. Genetically the hermie condition is near impossible to reverse once started. Sometimes even plants from the hermaphroditeâ??s offspring that did not display the hermaphrodite condition can still carry the hermie trait to future offspring. If you ever see all-female seeds advertised by seed banks you have the right to know weather or not these seeds come from female plants that were stressed into producing male flowers. In general, growers try to avoid hermie plants because they spoil sinsemilla crops and breeding projects. [He further says] Abnormal bud growth is a side effect of the hermaphrodite conditionâ?¦Also, the quantity of female bud produced is decreased because of pollination.â?�
