Autoflowering hit with Male pollen? Expected Outcomes?

I've never grown out Autos. I've strictly been a non-feminized, male and female kind of grower. I've collected lots of Autos from Attitude as freebies/UFO's.

Just curious, what is the expected outcome if I hit a nice Auto with straight ole' male pollen? Do I get hermies? All females? Regular Male/Female Auto? Just regular F1 seeds?

I know they say there are no stupid questions -- so please help!

why would you do this? you want to mess up a plant with pollen? planning on breeding with autos? Huge fails my book, either way

If you are asking what happens if you pollinate a female autoflower with a photoperiod male's pollen, this is what will happen.

You will get seeds that are mixed male/female and none will autoflower.. HOWEVER all will be carriers of the autoflowering gene. (Fig.1) If you breed one of those seeds with another one of those seeds: You will get 25% Completely photoperiod 25% autoflowering 50% photoperiod carrying the auto gene. (Fig. 2)

Once you get to that point you can breed any two odf the autoflowering seeds together and you will get all autoflowering babies.

(A=dominant photoperiod gene. any plant with an "A" will need a change in light schedule to flower. a=autoflower gene. Only plants with "aa" will autoflower.)

That's how you make an autoflowering version of a photoperiod strain.

i think you will get a mix of everything autos, photo, male, female.
