Hi,
So I started two seeds earlier this year from the same strain a few years ago. Out of all the dank seeds I've saved, these seeds were the only viable seeds. My roommates and I took care of drying and trimming this guy's plants that were one or two weeks early. Anyway, out of the several pounds of stuff we got I saved two seeds.
So I am just finishing my first grow, and everything was going great until about the 3rd week of flowering. I trimmed most of the fan leaves off of one all at once, which stressed the plant enough for it to go hermaphrodite. The hermaphrodite plant then pollinated its sister.
My question is are the seeds from the sister plant viable? From what I understand they should be feminized. I am pretty sure that removing almost all of the fan leaves was directly responsible for making it hermaphrodite. Now the seeds from the hermaphrodite plant are probably not so great?
Lesson learned for the next round of clones; I am just curious about the viability of the seeds that are going to come off my non-hermaphrodite plant of the same strain (it did not go hermaphrodite despite also being defoliated). Are they worth keeping or should I just trash them/strew them about Portland?
