Will this be a Hermie or female?
I was eager to clone a plant and as I only had one growing it had to be it.(fingers crossed).
I waited till I noticed the female signs ,then about two weeks after I noticed, I took a clone.
After taking my clone, the following day I started training my mother plant, cutting lower parts that would not come to anything, big leaves mostly bottom half, that where just taking the goodness away from the flowers.
Tying her down like the Queen Mary. She Looked very industrious when finished.
After two more weeks I then noticed that this was a he/she plant,(Hermaphrodite).
Three weeks later My clone has been transplanted and looks like a girl.
Could I have changed the mother plant to a hermaphrodite by cutting, pulling and tying down,as in when I took my clone it was a defo girl. ?

Maybe
but the thing is it really isn't very stable
Any stress could do it again or worse yet it shows its ugly side late in flower
If it was me I would chuck it

definitely possible, stress can induce Hermie traits, basically you cause it to protect itself cause of what you did to her, first with the clone taking, and then with the trimming out, thirdly with the fiming...........really hard to say, just my 2 cents to it
