Yep Swerve is the Cali Conman, I wouldn't believe a word that tool says.
lol...Well, because I trust Cob when he makes his beans to keep it clean. I trust hummus when he sprouted them and found a male...lol... A full male does show every so often from within S1 lines - it's not an unheard of happening.
Rather than be skeptical - be excited.
HITH - I think you may be missing the point. I shared pollen from a 100% male found in Cob's S1's. This pollen is rare. Very rare. Maybe even unique (so far). It seemed to me a crime not to share it with people who could do it justice.
Now it may be an amazing breeder on a purely 1:1 basis with non-chem cuts. It may not. But we will soon see.
However I'm very confident that searching through the offspring of say ChemD, Chem3, Chem Sis, Skunk Va will throw up some stellar males and females that can be put to further use. Let's not forget this male pollen contains pretty special DNA.
Worth a shot I think. So stay positive...it may turn out great. It may turn out to be a hermie disaster. But let's criticise it and knock it only if that happens.

Well I stressed the male with irregular lighting, bending and pinching. Only produced male flowers. Not one pistil.
Thanks for your concern...and I'm gonna have a lot of fun searching through the seeds.
So let me ask everyone:
If you had found this 'male' (lol) what would you have done and why?
