Those people are only sometimes correct. Sugar Punch likely will have a lot of variability in the offspring because of it's polyhybrid nature, but it breeds pretty true for some pretty awesome things too so that will be interesting.Currently testing out some beans I made...Herijuana x Lemon Thai, Lemonberry x Lemon Thai, Selene (dark purple pheno) x Madonna, and Sugar Punch (superglue pheno) x Madonna.
Now, the Sugar Punch is a feminized plant, and a lot of folks say it's not a good thing to make beans from them...but I'm a stubborn old coot, I want to see for myself what happens.
The chances of bad recessives emerging in some feminized lines is higher, but it all comes down to the genetics in the end. IE: Breeding with OG S1's you are almost certain to introduce hermaphrodism into whatever line you are creating (and I somewhat suspect that there is more than one gene linked to this phenomenon in relation to stress and it's ability to be triggered easily vs just straight intersex plants, I think they are related but different).
