ARE YOU INSANE MAN? WHAT KIND OF CRAZY QUESTION IS THAT?

For #1 anything crossed with Hindu Kush is a good thing.

For #2 anything crossed with most anything by Nirvana is probably pretty great

For #3 and anything crossed with Amnesia Haze in it is probably really great.

DOH!

DON'T DO IT. ITS POSSIBLE SUCH A BABY MAY DESTROY THE KNOWN WORLD AS WE KNOW IT.

Not if they are NOT stressed.. Plant rape is becoming a Global problem now and we need to get the UN involved to come in and address it.

Now hermies from the cross breeding can occur if they are not land races or F1's

Sure thing. I'll have to find room when I start back up.
Had been several years since my last fresh bean purchase. The Hindus were freebies, along with a couple of femmed sour diesel beans. So... I turned a simple order of 10 reg Nirvana's and 5 femmed Amnesia Hazes into 3 mommies, everything crossed with the Nirvana, plus Nirvana f2's. All from 5 Nirvana, 1 Amnesia, and 2 Kush seeds.100% germed. Still have half the Nirvana beans, 4 haze beans, and the not yet tried femmed Sour Diesel.

True Breeding takes time. I'm thinking of crossing UBC chemo with white russian?

I respectfully have to disagree, Bob. The forced feminising process (using colloidal silver or, more commonly, gibberellic acid) does not alter the DNA of the mother plant.

ALL strains have the potential to turn hermaphrodite when stressed to varying degrees - it just depends on how stable they are to begin with, and the hormonal variation around individual plants. Sativas (especially Asian equatorials) are more predisposed to hermaphrodism than indicas, while individual female plants of any genus may be more predisposed to hermaphrodism if surrounded by a high number of other females and a low number or complete absence of males (survival mechanism).

Whatever you cross, the progeny will only be as predisposed to hermaphrodism as the genetics they carry - it has nothing to do with whether the mothers came from feminised stock or not.
