Hermie seeds?

smokebluntz · Apr 19, 2009

I just got done with my first grow. A few weeks after I started flowering I saw seeds starting to form on the buds. The plant came from a some bag seed but it was some good good. Will these seeds even produce? If they will, will they give me males and females or just more hermies?

When did you remove the males .. if a male pollinated the female, you have normal seeds crossed between the two parent. If you have a hermi, you will have all hermi seeds. If you forced hermi on a female, you have fems, but fems are sketchy no matter what.

its hard saying without a lil info...when you was sexing...did you notice the males? or is that plant just a male plant?
if you seen males..and got rid of them..u might have did it too late and the males pollinated the females...
and now you just got a shit load of hermies....hermies produce more hermie seeds,u can get a female out of them..
but its just a chance youll have to take...
id take some seeds and start a new crop.

let him know what ...?

I have made fems before, i know what im talking about. I cross pollinate all the time, and ive thrown strains away for being hermis. Ive also flowered out hermis lots of times just to smoke. The bud is still alright, but the seeds unless done properly are all garbage.
Grow out your hermi's but dont expect anything good

I didnt see any males when I flowered. I thought it was female until I saw seeds starting to form. I also had another plant in my closet but it was another strain. I saw a few seeds in it too but no where near the number of seeds on my good plant. The good plant has hundreds of fucking seeds. But I know 100% sure that the plant had female pistols.

you have to check for both pistils and pollen sacs, as a hermi has both, hence it being a hermi. A hermi pollinates itself, thats what a hermi is, no matter how you look at it, a female plant producing pollen is missing the male chromosome, so it comes out retarded. Only by perfecting the method of the y chromosome you can produce a female seed at like a 60% success rate at best. A normal hermi may produce 1 female in a 100.

I looked for male parts and didnt see any.

you have to check all the time. I learned this the hard way, a pollen sac can literally pop up anytime out of nowhere, just one sac could ruin your whole crop. Also you may be carrying pollen on your clothes or circulated through the air. If you have pollen in your house, it will find the buds somehow ..
