Breed?

is it possible to pollinate an autoflower with a non af?
would the femenized seeds ( using hermie pollen sacs )
have the non autoflower traits but still be autoflower?
EX :

taking and storing pollen sacks from a hermied Grandaddy Purple, and painting them onto the autoflower?
whos genetetics would it take more of, the father or the mother? or is it impossible to tell?

cause i know if you leave plants out longer in flowering time, they will produce male bananas that can be cut and stored and used to pollinate if properly stored.

Its all hit or miss. You can get one thats pure gdp and another thats pure autoflower.

But if you do do this then make sure when yorue growing out the f1s (first gen) to save a male that either autoflowers or doesnt.

You can, you will get unstable autos though, what you should do is grow out the seeds you get and once again breed with a stable auto flower. Then you will have more of a chance to have stable auto flowering genetics. Would take a few grow cycles though. I would suggest causing your autos to hermie producing "fem" seeds.

Maybe, and no.

If you cross any two plants, the offspring will have SOME traits from EACH plant. So if you crossed an auto with a regular, you'd expect the F1 offspring to have some traits from each parent.

But since the autoflowering trait is RECESSIVE, if you cross a Reg plant and an auto, the F1 offspring will be ALL REGs (ie NONE should be expected to autoflower).

If you then cross two F1 plants, you'd expect 1/4 of their F2 offspring to be autos.

50-50 genetic mix.
As to which traits you'd see in that F1 offspring, you'd have to do the cross and see.
IMO, worth a shot if you've got the pollen and interest.
