This article mentions the hermi male

I’m going to start trying to reveg plants instead of cloning everything , hopping this will allow me to pop more seeds. And keeps my numbers in check
I got a accidental pack of seeds & I’m going to run them just to try this . Started germinating last night
But I don’t plant on keeping any males from it

Right, that's the excerpt from Dj's book which I have right here.

Not a lot outside of that writing and some splatterings on the net with a few forum posts here and there with less than conclusive info.

not sure how the science behind a hermi male with viable pollen works to prevent future hermi's but if true then these should be the most sought after males.

sam the skunkman warns against using hemi'd males to breed. D.J. Short says they will produce more females.

i have breed with a male that threw female pistils and made seeds. i saved those seeds, but have done nothing with them.

but seeds i did get from crossing him with another strain have not shown adverse affects and has only produced females so far.

with that said, i have only grown out a few of those seeds. need to keep popping more to make sure those are not prone to go hermi, but so far i don't think so.
I did a fall/winter seed test a couple three years ago. Two Hurricane Head females named themselves Bug Topped and The Finger during the normal course of their lives. It was only at the end of their lives that I discovered The Finger had lots of male flowers along the lower limbs, and they were both wrapped up in seed. I had heard old timers say they would use hermie pollen on other females, so I did give the BT X TF seeds a try this past season. They started out great, but those were among the patches that LEO's had maybe found, so I didn't go back to them until after they were long dead. If I have the space, I would like to give them another try.

we were talking about male plants that throw female flowers.
