I have a wonderful strain grown and pollinated successfully for more than a decade. Never a problem. Genetics appear stable. Very good growing conditions.. The last batch of seeds were stored in a freezer for about 8 years, and they germinated exceptionally well. But unfortunately 8/8 grew to be male. ?Does long term storage make seeds more likely to be male ?
I want to try again but not if the results will be repeated. It is indica with 50 percent blueberry genetics and a variety I REALLY don’t want to let go. Any pro advice?

No. The chromosomes of which determine a seeds sex, are everlasting, permanent, and can not be altered. You just got some shit luck.
