A no pistil female plant.

Yes it had pistils before.
That is super weird, so then revegging truly changed its DNA if the plant and its clones are now all growing without pistils. Its just odd because it seems pretty common for people to take clones in flower and it doesnt seem to actually change the plant other than it taking a super cropped shape, But clones taken from that plant then behave the same as the original plant before flowering and reveg.

Just to be clear, you said you grew the plant, flowered it (had pistils at this point), Harvested, revegged, took clones and gave to friends, those clones as well as this plant then flowered with no pistils?

I always thought actual genetic changes only happened through reproduction. For example When people ask if a clone of a clone of a clone eventually changes traits over time, the answer is usually no, it can remain identical for many years because the DNA is always the same.

That is correct. Grew it from seed indoors, had pistils, harvested it when ripe, left a couple growth nodes, and put it outside to reveg and grow.

This plant has been through some changes that most plants do not experience. Between the harvest/reveg and the grown indoor and revegged outdoors..... I'm not surprised it doesn't want to reproduce lol.

its like a zombie plant. Back when you harvested it was fully convinced it died so now it just mindlessly makes empty calyxes without trying to produce seeds.
Or maybe since she went through a whole lifetime of trying to get fertilized and failed, she has now given up and gone lesbian, no more need for those pistils, why waste her time when she knows from her previous life she aint gettin no pollen. Try rubbing another plants buds on her and see if she gets extra sticky and gooey

lol
it really is super weird though. A plant with literally no purpose in life

I'd say she just went on birth control without your knowledge. Obviously likes the dick and doesn't want to pop a kid.

At least you know your daughter's active, but still responsible.

And in all seriousness, it would be interesting to see how this responds to pollen...I had a plant outdoors a few years back that was similar. It went into minor reveg and all the pistils kinda receded and curled inside the calyx. Went back into flower and they never came back. They were basically in a receded state of full swell for the rest of the flowering period, which was another 9 weeks. Half of the pistils looped out the calyx, and then back in, where yours just plain seems to have none.

If it truly is unpollinatable, that could be very valuable. Plenty of people have issues with crops because of hemp growers that dont kill off males. Pollen can spread very far and seed a whole crop. This mutation would solve the issue for farmers in that situation.

Unfortunately you cant breed it with anything

Although I may not be able to pollinate it I can take a clone and sts right before flip to gain pollen to use on other female plants. I doubt the trait will move on with it though.
