Females product male pollen after a certain age? Is that true?

Has anyone ever heard that if you let a female over-ripen it will produce male pollen?

I've seen where 2 plants out of 50 will turn to seed, and always wondered why, so maybe that makes sense?

Can someone confirm or ... um... "negatively confirm" I guess is the term?

Overflowered plants will generally produce nanners as a last ditch effect to make seeds..done it to save a strain. Way overflowered..I harvested and overflowered the popcorn.

Female will go herm to try to protect the life force, as it were. (This is stress-induced) You can have a super-mother that's 1-a few years old with no signs of male/herm present, so would say environmental stressors / conditions are the cause.. or it's the seed genetics.(hate to say that)

Shitty part is that the one the herms isn't the one that seeds - would wipe out the entire strain if I could catch it.
