Mr G's line had a hermi problem. Back on original OG, he claimed to have done 20+ generations without ever having a single hermi. Buuut, CBF did some beans...all "females" hermied...I did some beans...all "females" hermied...and a third individual told me privately, they got the same result. To be fair, Mr G did all his work outdoors, and the three of us grew ours indoors...so it's possible that difference accounted for the differing results. However, it does indicate a problem with the genetics...possibly too much inbreeding. CBF and I were just reminiscing aboot the whole ordeal...he did say he never had that problem with crosses he made with the Cherrybomb though. So that just reinforces my thought that Mr G had over-selected, and never recombined old lineage to regain unintentional genetic losses.
...just a thought for you to chew on.
Thanks 4 that - I more so like Greenegeene philosophy more than the plants but hey..

Here’s the female CB
Oh boy...
Definitely looks like a CB...mine all had that same stem coloration.
Definitely does not look female, nor hermi....full on ball sacks.
Would be interesting to see how any crosses you make will turn out.
Well this is good! Thank u for the slight confirmation on the looks (not that it;s a male but the coloration and CB resemblence) as it's been a mystery with these -
We shall find out how these crosses turn! It may take a while

It's a bit anecdotal...I realize...but yeah, the coloration and what I can see of the leaves, looks exactly like the CB I grew many years ago.
