Will all phenos be herm?

I have a strain, Toothglue (pugs breathe x gg4). I have a small grow so am not really able to properly 'pheno hunt'. I got 1 male(killed) and 2 females. The first one I flowered showed nanners at sex and pollen sometime in flower, as I have found seeds. Also found a seed in a neighboring plant which shows it pollinated other plants in the tent.

My question is; I have another female in flower of the same strain. Will this pheno(assuming its a different pheno) herm too or could it be pheno specific? Or because the genetics are the same the pheno doesn't matter, and will herm like all phenos from this cross?

Any info would be cool. This strain is the frosty'est, smelly'est bitch I have grown in 10+ years.

Depends on WHY it hermed. I can see how under proper conditions it might not. I can also see that if there is enough of the proper stressors ANY plant would herm.

So the answer is it depends. Breeders have bred straind for decades for stable genetics. I just don't mess with herbs anymore, I just pulled and burn them, if its close to done make hash with it. Too many good, cheap. Genetics out there to mess with here's. Unless your just playing around, in which case go for it.

I am pretty sure it's genetics seeing as all my other plants under the same conditions are fine.

I guess my short questions is; Can a 'strain' with hermie tendencies have 'phenos' within that gene pool that doesn't carry on that herm...
Thxnx!!!

I clone, sometimes a mother just starts throwing herms, its weird and I aint an arborist but when I see herms I kill em, if it repeats and I'm positive the environment ain't the cause i kill the mother and go to seed and start over

Bag seed is like the lottery, spend your money and roll the dice, stable seeds from reputable distributors are the best and quickest way to fire ass weed.

Your call brother
