I want seeds but only have a hermaphrodite and females.

[dustin741]

So I just found out the sex of my pants 3 females and 1 hermaphrodite. I would like seeds from these plants, so I can grow more. But I don't know about letting a hermaphrodite pollinate a female. Is the hermaphrodite gene going to be transferred on to the next generation of seeds. I know not to use the seeds from the hermaphrodite itself because the hermaphrodite gene will most likely be transferred. But I don't know if letting the hermaphrodite pollinate a different female is going to transfer the bad gene. Any incite on this?

As far as what I have read, if you are transferring herm pollen to female plants you should be safe. It's only when you let the herm pollenate itself and germ those seeds that you run into issues!

ehh, while it is true that some lesser breeders will take the pollen from a hermie and use it to create fem seeds, it's not the best way to go about doing it as you will pass on the hermie trait to the offspring..
it's better to use a chemical to turn an otherwise straight chic hermie, then use the hermie pollen to pollinate another girl..

why not just take some clones from the females and continue to grow them out and wait to try and get some seeds till you get a proper male m8??

Well I'm not experienced in cloning but I do know the basics of how to do it. One reason I kinda want to keep the hermaphrodite was to make hash because I know the other 3 pants are not going to yield that much bud. I'm just trying to get the most I can out of this grow. Im still thinking about killing the hermaphrodite to get sensimilla buds but I just don't know yet. I'm on the fence right now about my next grow, don't know if I want to clone, buy fem seeds, let the pants pollinate, grow hydroponically. I'm just weighing my options. But at this point I'm thinking the best option would be to just kill the hermie, buy some good fem seed online, set up a hydro system and clone from there on out. You never learn how to swim if you don't jump in. I just always think im going to fuck up something big time because of my lack of experience. I read and read about cultivation all the time, I watched so many grow videos It aint funny but I'm still scared to get in there and just do it. I think this time I am tho.
