herm plant seeded crop

bongobongo · 01-06-2011, 03:53 PM

about 2 months ago i had my flower room get seeded by a medibud plant...

it seeded everything, and i got a bunch of good crosses like:

medibud x strawberry cough
medibud x medibud
medibud x jack herer (wierd plant, thinking about killing it off...to much sativa indica variance it seems)
and medibud x northern lights

are these strains worth keeping around? would i just say... do as i would with any other purchased seeds ive had (find strongest pheno female and clone off it then mother it)

basically, am i going to be happy running a cycle of hermie seeds or will it just be more trouble then its worth?

Why did the medibud herm? If there was no real reason then you don't want the offspring.

Even if there was some reason, the crosses are random and may or not bring up good pheno's.

Hermies are not generally considered good parent material.

this brings up other questions like, how do banks get feminised seeds? from what i read it seems that herm females are the only way to get fem seeds... or mostly

the medibud hermed for no apparent reason (from feminized seed from seed bank)

Then it's offspring may well herm for no apparent reason.

Seedbanks use chems to induce hermaphrodism- so their females would stay straight if left unmolested. Edit- One would hope.

Farmergiles speaks wisely and beyond his years (why no capital F?).
ribbit
First generation of a lot of the fems seem fine but further into it and after making some crosses there are a lot of growers and breeders dealing with hermie shite.

I vote to burn them at the stake and then mash them to make sure they don't get out.
You know, if I had a vote LOL

Where do you get your seeds? A bank?

Medibud X Strawberry Cough? If you don't plan on using that particular seed batch, hit me uuuuuppppp!(seriousl y tho!) Strawberry Cough is one of my faves and I'm having trouble finding seed sock around here.

ya dan, i get them from sensi seeds... i run really constant perameters... when i saw it herm it was in a group of 10 medibuds that didnt herm... who the fuck knows i was as shocked as you guys that it hermed, i almost wanted to call sensi seeds and tell them to reimburse me 70,000$
