high all, im wondering if its good or bad practice to reverse a feminized plant or will it go teribly wrong?
i got some seeds from my purchased cbd weed online. ive had a 50% germination rate. the seeds im growing are from up to 30% cbd strains so im hoping that the seeds i have will be cbd rich strains.
now i know that some breeders grow cbd/thc strains and rid the plant of thc before sale, but ive yet to come across any seeds online to go over 16=20% cbd.
ive just purchased some seedsman cbd auto 30% cbd and 1% thc. i was hoping to reverse one of the plants from these bag seeds as it were and cross it with the auto seed docter cbd strain.
so can it be done?? any experiance in this field greatfully recieved. go go

Yes you can reverse a feminized plant but it's going to be tricky with an auto. I've reversed feminized photoperiod plants and pollinated another feminized photoperiod plant and have not witnessed any of those seeds developing into hermies. People are quick to blame the genetics for plants turning hermie but that excuse is overused and other stress factors are often the cause. One of those stress factors is overfeeding which is rampant among cannabis growers.

ive no doubt it will work, but doing itthat way you get a higher percentage of hermies in the later development of the plant
Thats not exactly how that works.

If you have a plant that hermied (different than nanners) sure you might get some hermie genes.

However if you stress a plant into nanners it will produce viable female seeds that are not prone to nanners.

Hermie and nanner different beasts.
