Now there's my SCROG pic! So are you just letting the branches grow through the screen or are you going to bend and weave them through the screen?

a hermy carries an extra chromosome, XXY.

you can't force a "pure" female to produce pollen unless you use a chemical agent. it is the only way to get true feminized seeds. any other method and you are working with a genetic defect.
what about light stress?? won't that produce hermified traits in a non hermi plant?

I really dont understand the point of scrog outdoors, i thought the purpose was to keep an even canopy because artifical light can only penetrate so deep.. but the sun can penetrate all the way to the grouund right? or no?

I think it would be nice to have a unch of main colas you know. Also I think this will help me in my plot since it gets so damn windy sometimes, it could really help with support too.

sun can't penetrate through hella deep canopies.

I mean it's far better than indoor like that, but not to the point where scrog is useless outside . . . .

do trees produce shade at the trunk?? im pretty sure they do and from previous grows ive seen of FDD, he gets TREES!!!

FDD, i hate to contradict you but you can make any plant hermie. or at least make it produce pollen sacks. by leaving it several weeks past its harvest date, for self preservation purposes, the plant will grow pollen sacks to self pollinate, if pollination has not already occurred. is you harvest this pollen, and pollinate another different female, this will make feminized seeds. other than using chemicals, i think it is one of the only natural ways to produce pollen from a female plant. like 14-16 weeks into flower it will produce pollen sacks.

also you are forgetting a very key thing in genetics. mutations. they happen all the time, this is why you can get a hermie from something that only has an XX or XY. a mutation can occur and form that XXY chromosome to make it hermie. this can happen to any chromosome or base pairs when sequencing TRNA for polypeptide chains, by switching a once paired A-T=G-C=G-C, to T-A=G-C=C-G. in animal or plant cells. mutations also cause cancer in cells.

not all plants do this. :wall:

NO, this does NOT make feminized seeds.

do some genetic research and get back to me.

a naturally pollen producing female is a hermy.

it's DNA and shit.

you mean stress causes chemicals to be formed that can cause the same effect as you applying the chemicals yourself. I never would of thunk that.

i believe you to be mistaken. sorry, you can go on and on all you want. i still say HERMY!!!!!!

i will seek out a plant that does NOT show both sexes to breed with. the rest of you can keep fuckin' everything up.


could someone explain to me how to make hermy seeds?

Sounds like your searching for the holy grail and the fountain of youth at the same time.

nope, simply stable genetics. and i tend to do ok. i have 2 other males in full flower that have ZERO pistils. imagine that. :)

it's everybody else who is confused. keep breeding those hermies for your feminized seeds!!!!!! :roll:

Actually I wont touch feminized seeds, and I would never use them to breed with. But since your doing so well I wouldn't mind growing out some of your seeds I bet I could make them pure girls grow dicks.

i don't understand why you would want to. i have been spending years trying to keep it bred out. and they obviously aren't pure if i'm seeing pistils on males. are they?

work-in-progress ....................


i have been growing from seed for over 20 years. it wasn't until about 4 or 5 ago that i started seeing hermies. there are people out there DESTROYING the gene pool with their lack of knowledge.

people get my seeds and start crossing them. why? i don't get it.

but it isn't just people nature does it too pollen can carry on the wind as far as 200 yards or more. Do you think that all cannabis was dioecious before we started treating it with chemicals? Or was it a natural adaptation meant for survival of the specie?

it's a genetic mutation brought on by undesirable conditions. i want nothing of it.
