yeah, a lot of killer, popular strains are unstable as poo.. trainwreck like you mentioned already, og kush, sour d, the list goes on and on..
most of these strains are fire and people want them, therefore "breeders" used them to make beans with.

But as you stated above the hermie gene stays and is dominate in some strains. Some strains will be stable as can be and be top quality meds, I grow hermie seeds all the time, very few end up being full blown hermie.

That's true. I guess everyone's right to a certain extent.
I would say I'm right, not just to a certain extent, its the truth.

To say breeders don't all use stable and tried and true genetics you're living in a dream land.

Dj short gave percentage amounts for how much a strain would throw male flowers at the end of flowering. Some threw a few but they had such desirable bud he just had to make a cross with them. I wouldnt call them unstable but they were prone to slight herms. Breeders cant even avoid it imo.

yeah, that's the thing, some strains won't throw that late flower nanner like others will..
same as with using a chemical like c.s. or g.a. some plants won't grow male stamenate flowers when sprayed with these chemicals and are impossible to make feminized seeds from, and they're nye impossible to reverse that way.

Yer he did have some strains that seemed very resiliant to it as well.

Got to give him credit for taking it to the limit in trying to get the most stable that he could and actually letting customers know. Then there's the ones that throw unstable shit out there, the plants that throw balls mid flower. I grew a Dutch Passion blue berry that threw balls like a blue jay game lol.

That looks like a plant that just got polinated mid flower. Look around there might be a real culprit in the buch.
Didn't see anything the whole plant is sprinkeled from top to bottom randomly with da pollen sacks ...and none of the other plants were any farther along than the others bt I still looked

So most of us are on the same page?? This was a female with the hermaphrodite gene present ..still confused lol sorry guys ...and the seeds wich I'm sure ill end up with will carry the same herm shit...but it already is present than does that make it hereditary or recessive lol will the beans be even more likely to herm out than these? Like I said before I've never had a male in mu room nore have I had hermaphrodites so I dont believe there was any kind of pollination

Most likely you need to get better at growing or choose a less prone strain, was my advice from the start. New growers come here, hear the word 'hermaphodite' and then start shouting it out like they know shit, same with preflowers and thinking they can sex a plant after a few weeks veg.

You wont find a definative answer on hermies, even the top scientists are still trying to work out which proteins trigger it in its genetic structure.

Just a question of what your going to do on your next grow, most of us have been in the same situation when we first started growing, some of us still see the odd male flower still to this day.
