Seeds in buds

[Panog]

Just a quick question guys, basically if a plant from a stable strain hermied a bit because of the stress and had a few seeds in the buds (no bananas, only a few seeds), will those seeds be "feminized" ?
I'm not talking about pollinating a female with a hermie female, but a hermie female that self pollinate
Thanks for the answers guys

They should be but theres a bigger chance of them going hermie when grown, I grew some out a couple of years ago and every plant got nanas near the end so it wasn't that much of a problem.

Okay thanks mate, I have some seeds I found in the automatics i grew outdoor (only a few) and they appeared at the late stage of flowering (last week)
So I plan on growing them as the weed was good and the auto seeds are freaking expensive

[Boner]

Yeah give it a go, autos are a funny thing genetically though so there is a small chance they wont actually auto-flower.

If you look through this thread (I think it's this one) the breeder goes into the way true autos are made: http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=212599

yeah boner is right if you get seeds from a herimied plant chances are that they will be female but high chance they will follow the traits of the plant which they came ( just keep a look out for the nanas & clip em off )
have only just started messing about with autos & i know a few peops who do autos & never heard of them throwing out any seed, but they do them indoors, let us know if they still keep the auto genes, peace JJ

Thanks buddies, and thanks a lot Boner this link is fucking interesting, plus the ogre this guy bred looks incredible

[Boner]

Yeah that Ogre plant is a beast, I can only imagine how good an auto chemdog would be as well.

Saw this on Icmag that I thought was quite interesting:

Feminised seeds are hermaphrodite seeds, even when you buy them from a breeder. They are perhaps less likely to turn than a self-pollinating hermaphrodite (depends on how easily the parent turned), but they definitely tend towards hermaphrodism. This is why not too many breeders produce them.

Self-pollinated seeds will usually turn hermaphrodite in the same circumstances or at the same stage of growth as their parent.

Feminised seeds may follow the pattern of the hermaphrodite parent, may express hermaphrodism as a result of different factors (stress, irregularity, cutting) or may not turn.

It is hard to predict how likely feminised seeds are to turn. They can inherit the tendency from either parent - or possibly both (I'll have to read up on genetics for a definite answer to that).

Also, since all cannabis has the ability to turn, the 'pure' female parent of a feminised cross may also have a tendency towards hermaphrodism to pass on to its offspring.

Chances are that this will not be a strong tendency, but it's hard to be sure (unless you have grown many clones of that female and are confident that she's not prone to flipping out).

Feminised seeds are not the same thing as self-pollinated hermaphrodite seeds, but they're not enormously different either. In some ways, feminised are less predictable.

For instance, if I had a female that was prone to putting out a few 'bananas' (tiny male flowers, often consisting of a single pollen-distributing anther) when flowered a few weeks longer than normal, I'd be much more interested in using self-pollinated seeds from this plant than feminised seeds.

Self-pollinated seeds from a plant like this should turn into exact copies of the parent, with the same tendency towards limited hermaphrodism.

To be strictly accurate, feminised seeds might better be described as hermaphrodised seeds. But you can see that these wouldn't sell quite so well
