Clearly the male and female donor parents in the original cross both had hermaphroditic recessive genetics... that means the genes are still there if the same female is used. Just won't come to the surface as often/easily. Might not at all unless you F2, but I'd imagine with stress they will be prone to popping nanners.
Does sub address this somewhere specifically, where'd you hear about a different male?

...banana! I hope that wasn't the nicest pic they could find.Not bashing Sub because I've never tried his genetics (just ordered some though) and have grown to love his organic perspective but the image of "Professor Chaos" on Herbies website clearly shows a banana. Whether this is a result of rhodelization is up for debate. I personally don't care if some fire throws a few bananas here or there. My leading lady right now has been known to throw 1 or two.
That is kind of funny.

I got the first release along with a buddy that had his all herm. I popped one bean which showed pistols late in veg, when I switched to 12/12 it turned into a 100% male, no clue what the real gender of the plant was but I wont be popping any more of them I have way too many other beans to worry about dealing with this.

This was a fly by night scam.

Sub and company got called out on Instagram awhile back when all of the early testers were showing off pics of how badly 9 Pound Hammer was throwing nanners. A story came out shortly there after that (OD, or Jinxproof, whichever one bred it), lost the original male, and a new male had been selected to keep the strain going.

So the new male was responsible for the Nanners or the old one they lost?

The old male belonged to a guy named Mr. Spliff. He is AWOL these days. I heard a new male was selected to fix the herm issue (not to be confused with a few nanners late in flower). People were getting proper BALL SACKS at week 3 and stuff..an issue that could really do a lot of harm. Nanners aren't the end of the world. I have seen absolute fire cuts that throw nanners late. I know one very experienced and good grower who swears that it ain't done 'till you see nanners. His Neville's Haze is to die for, so he isn't a dummy.

The old male was the main culprit, but some folks are still reporting issues with version 2.0.

While those that bought the old herm dog packs get stuck with nothing, while he raises prices double.

Surely he will at least provide new gear for those who had their grows lost due to this issue?

Didn't replace either of my 2 5 packs.
