Ps. I wish that there was a way of making all male seeds, if anyone has any ideas give me a pm please.
Hit a reversed male with regular male pollen. Of those seeds, 25% will be XX female, 50% XY male, and 25% YY "supermale" Crossing YY supermale pollen with a XX female will give you 100% regular XY males.

The trick is identifying those supermales. Without a genetic test you'll have to make seeds with some males and grow those out until you find the ones that make all males.

Thanks for trying to contribute some ideas. I have tried this and spoke to many others who have also done this seeing the same results. The yy's dont germinate (where assuming their yy because about a quarter always dont germinate)through using that method of creating seeds (male on male). It may be possible nowdays to get a plant from the yy embryo using tissue culture methods. I will relook into it again and see if its possible with todays technology to get a plant to start out of the yy seed. If we can get them to go and they all turn out male and wont reverse no mater what then that will let me know they are definitely the yy plants. If you come up with any other ideas let me know please. Thanks

Edit. Actually I have something that may be a super male. It grows out single bannas out of the trunk like you normally see on hermie females. The rest of the plant produces normal male parts. I have a hunch that its actually a super male, may have had some colchine experimentation done on the line in the past. It wont reverse no mater what methods or chemical is used, wont flower through root binding or any stress. Its super stable I will need to find a xx female to test is though. Thanks for the tip.

Harsh, I was under the impression that some would germ. If only a few YYs germinated it would be take a lot of time, space, and effort to find them. I doubt anyone would think it is worth it.

I got a pack of pb breath and half the pack was stalled tap roots the other half was male.
Sheeeit, I’m starting to think I got lucky with two females out of the 20. Good thing is these are crossed with Moby Dick, so they should have a decent yield.
