Most female plants will have some curves in their main stem whereas male plants tend to be straight and taller to spread more pollen in the wind

@ol-no-7 I was aggressively mainlining so I would not be surprised if I stressed he out. Funny thing is, I’ve been hitting clones from this plant with STS trying to get pollen.

Well I think you achieved the objective…

Good question! I haven’t had it happen yet, but I’m starting to play with regs now too, so I’d love to know.

I think it is premordial to understand dioecious plant breeding before playing with sts. In the future all cannabis will be hermaphrodite if we dont care. Oh, they will have labs to spin out anything with a crisper gun, but the genes belong to the people, not corporations.

@FlowFrogGrowsYa I hear you, but I am not planning to release any offspring to anyone. What you call playing, I call learning.

It’s honestly just a dick move to look down on the way anyone breeds. You don’t have to worry about inferior seeds flooding the market. The wind and outdoor weather has been naturally making crosses that are inferior for smoking for a long, long, time.

Yeah, i understand, so for me to help you, i have questions, is the plant in the picture from seed or clone, i understand they are all-fem, so if you cloned a female plant and the other clones are ok, then you caused it to herm, but if you plant a thousand all-femmed seeds you may get around 5 or 10 herms, its a ressesive kind of thing, maybe more like rebound, it used to be said, that if you cross a reg with an all-fem, the resulting f1 will be more than half female, then if you take that f1 and outcross againt to a regular, you may get way more than half males…

@FlowFrogGrowsYa I did a small hunt, as this is just how I learn. The Pic is the mother, best structure of the 5 fem seeds I planted. Rooted out 4 clones from her(?). 2 for STS treatment and 2 to cross back to with the collected pollen. The question was to help me understand how a true male looks vs a stress hermed female for this experiment as well as future sexing when running regs. I appreciate the help but I’m not yet ready with breeding questions until I get through this try. Respect.

Anyways, you seem to be doing good, i totaly understand the part about not selling the seeds, i have loads…not for sale, a few years ago, i realised i needed to work with bigger numbers, always making 2-300 maybe more, i think i have done 5 different hybrids in so many years. All my crosses are made with a male from the same 2019 F1, i pop them every year, i know the phenos diversity well, they are my family.
