As I understand the plant in question, this is what I have found. (You must remember that I am fairly new at this so you should check out everything I am telling you although it is what I have used and it works for me). If a female plant is left in flowering too long without being fertilized, it will eventually produce pollen sacks on its own. The pollen sacks are called "nanners" because they are bright yellow and look like a tiny bunch of bananas. They are tiny but quite noticeable because of their bright yellow color. Seeds normally contain both an X and a Y chromosome. That means that the plant they produce has an even chance of being either a male or female plant. Environmental issues also plays a part in this choice of whether the plant will become a male or female. The X chromosome comes from the pollen produced by the male plant that fertilizes the female flower and the Y chromosome comes from the female flower. However, if the female flower is unfertilized by male pollen it will eventually hermaphrodite and produce these nanners. When this happens and the pollen from the female plant fertilizes the flower from the female plant it will result in a seed that has a Y chromosome from the flower and also a Y chromosome from the pollen which has been produced by the female plant. Therefore, the seed will have a double Y chromosome and will always produce a female plant. I have used this method over and over again and it has always resulted in female plants from seeds produced in this manner. However, only time will tell if it always works in the future. You might try researching this in some botony forum or what ever source you use. Good luck!

My theory exactly. If my regs came from female only rooms then they must gave stressed some way and ended up producing seeds. Since the female plant produced seeds by herself the seeds should only have mom's chromosomes. So in theory 2 mom chromosomes would churn out little lady seeds.
Oh btw that blue dream seed I planted had popped above the ground! Idk if I should raise it here for some nice indoor or try to kick it outside with the rest of them.
