Female seeds

[gloman]

In past years, I picked up a tidbit of info and I'm wondering just how true this is.
I was told, that a female plant will produce a few male pollen sacks now & then and pollinate herself to a degree.
This much I know.
What I would like to find out is, are the seeds produced most likely to be female as well?

Late in flower, or when the plant feels that its environment is threatened,

it produces so-called "'nanners" instead of pistls from certain Calyxs.

These are like the inside of male flowers, but their pollen only has female genetics,

so all the seeds wil be Feminized,

i.e. The plants will all be female with slight hermi tendencies,

depending on what stress made them produce nanners.

If the stress was an uncommon one or old age,

then the plants grown from the seed will be completely female under normal growing conditions.

Stress induced nanners

Ye a regular seed female or feminized may result in pollen sacks/banana type growth of pistils showing male tendencies...

This is a last ditch attempt at self pollination so that it it can survive by producing seed !


Normally happens under stressful conditions or prolonged flowering if trying to gain extra amber trichomes on your bud or fiddling with light timing whilst in flower to enhance ripening to gain a quicker harvest time or just plain bad seed stock
