i grew two seeds from the same plant it had a few seeds in the bud. i had a haze pheno and a lemon skunky indica pheno. the lemon skunk pheno grew male pollen sacks then shed them and grew female bud with no more male parts. it was full really full of trichs. the haze pheno is a lush high but has little airy bud with little trich coverage.
anyway i used some pollen from the male flowers expecting them to be infertile. i got 15 seeds
i have now got 9 seedlings growing can any1 tell me if there will be gret variation. or will they be uniform. or will they be half skunky half hazy. the original seeds where really different even though they came from the same plant. dj short says on his breeding thread that as i used the hamphradite most of the seedling will be female, and they are. sorry if i havnt got my question across in the best way:tiphat:

I am not 100% sure, but I think that pollen from a hermie plant will always pass that trait on. You should at least get no males. As to variation, I think it really depends on the true-breeding nature of the parent.

There would be 16 different phenos or traits it could take after. Until you stabilize a strain it pretty varied seed to seed. Sometimes it takes on the intersex traits (hermi) and sometimes it won't... Just have fun! If you find a plant you like, make it a mother plant and clone on, as someone put it give some away someone will keep it alive... So 1 seed has 16 ways it can grow, bound to be something you like! peace and puffs

nice one mule im glad you get where im coming from. its all about fun isnt it. dj short explains how there are 3 differen types of hermi and the type i used is excellent for producing female offspring, it only produces a few male balls in the first few weeks of 12.12 then they shed off and it produces female flowers all the way and no more males i only used it cos it is full of trichs
