Late Nanner Females and their Effects on Male Selection

So there seems to be a difference between true herms and later nanners herms (Rodelization) ... Not sure if anyone knows - and i've tried to find info on this - I was wondering if females that throw nanners late ( a few) - if that trait can be noticed in offspring males - when picking a male. I've heard you should grow out your males b/c they show herm later than females - but wasn't sure how late flower nanners affect male offspring - and if there is any indication in them when selecting. As for growing out males .. how long do you let them go until you decide - "ya this isn't a herm". If i have somehow missed a thread that talks specifically about this please hook me up with a link!

Thanks All!

I dont like males that flower out early cuz i believe it introduces hypersensitivity to the light schedules for all offspring from then on. You wouldn't see nanner potential in a male grown out, no, but as i mentioned you could kill off early hypersensitive males to keep that nanner stuff and hermie tendency reduced...but there is a cost, you pick a very late flowering male and you just extended your offsprings flowering time from then on.

not really beyond continuing to perpetuate the sensitive gene pool, where if a non nanner tossing specimen from that seed lot was used to breed instead.

not a criteria for me in selection. I want the goldielocks male, not too fast or early, not too slow or late to flower. If my line started throwing nanners i would try maybe once to find a non-nanner female and try to stabilize the line. If that failed id kill off the bloodline and start fresh, cloned parents or new stock...breeding sux, if you smoked today, thank a breeder. Just what my journey has produced in the form of knowledge in this topic.

Good Info! - Thanks for sharing your experiences!
 
Throwing out nanners late in flower is not a hermie trait.........it's called rodelization..........and the seeds produced will be female.
A true hermaphrodite shows both pistils and balls early in flower and should be destroyed.........the seeds will be hemies.

I get this with females - but just to confirm - this would be the same for males grown as well - in that the males during early flower would show pistils to indicate herm? - And as for Rodelization - that has no visible cues in males but becomes a trait that they carry?

Thanks!
