What is the significance (if any) of a cross that is prone to having twins?

This is the 2nd set of twins from this cross. Fewer than 10 beans popped to date, several in ground.

The little one got put outside and was unfortunately iradicated by the county noxious weed program, smoking the "big" one now. All but last 2 weeks was under 60 watts of cob.

I pulled a tester branch from the Jamaican Pineapple Glue last night. First run wasnt under all led and went 63 days. And was ready. This run was all led. At 57 days. And her trichs show ready. But not all pistils turned. But shes swollen. This is from the very first node branch. Way lower. Super chunky. Dense and the smell is unreal.

Found this in the Orgi F2. My experience with them is that they are usually females, but thats just a vague observation from a limited amount of whorled plants grown.
I had an Orange Blossom Special from Greenpoint that did this recently and it was straight garlic halitosis funk with a serious head to it so I dont believe it degenerates the final qualities of the plants at all. Just the structure and stacking.

I've always thought that twins are more mutations than traits that can get passed on. Interesting though, that Blue Harley is Blue Ripper x Harlequin. The original Blue Ripper was Blueberry male x Jack The Ripper female. The Blueberry male was twin and I got one twin in one cross with Blue Ripper, but hadn't seen any in the Blue Harley line.

Sweet. Loooking forward to checking them out. They’ll be the first I pop when mine are cured and ready. I’m kinda fired up on the JP right now. I want to do a larger run outdoor next year since she seems to be a fast finisher.
Jelly Pie was my favorite smoke from last winters run. Pretty much everyone loved it, the flavor, the high, and the yield were great.

I have been wondering about something lately and seeing as how I have no breeding experience, I figured this thread would be a good place to ask.
When dealing with multiple male plants how do you protect against cross pollination/contamination among them?

Cheers :)

Grow them in isolation, with filters n precautions & collect pollen and label.
Put the pollen on the selected female.

I put my boys outside about now and keep them separate. Harvest pollen away from each other. After I have pollen I kill and spray down the plant.

not to mention trying to dispose of 40-60 gallons of dirt once a month. that’s the opposite of discreet.
That's my problem I have about 120 1gal pots of dirt. If it wasnt loaded with perlite I would jus smash it and throw it in the woods. But over half is perlite. All still in the shape of the pots of course. Plus idk how many 3, 4, and 5gal mounds of dirt as well. I'm running out of room. Gonna have to bag them up and take them to a dumpster somewhere. Very soon. Or my garden has to cease. But I gotta do everything at night. Neighbors aren't a problem it's coming in n out of my property with 50 gallon bags over n over n over. I can get about 20 in one bag. And then they weigh 100lbs it seems like. Lol
