think of it like human beings. Male humans produce sperm while Male plants produce pollen. Female Humans produce eggs while Female plants produce Bud. The only way the Female Human can produce offspring is by getting fertilized by the male sperm. The only way Female plants can produce seeds is by getting fertilized by male pollen.

exception to the rule would be hermaphrodite. In nature an occurence can sometimes happen by a female plant towards the end of the flowering phase when the female plant still hasnt received its pollen it can actually create it’s own by becoming a hermaphrodite. This way it can fertilize itself and produce seeds. It’s natures last ditch effort to keep the species alive. These seeds will be female because it came from a plant that only has female genetics.

If a plant becomes hermaphrodite because of unusual stresses IE. Malnutrition and heat. then it can become hermaphrodite in a negative way which can possilby cause the seeds to have hermaphrodite tendancies.

Hope this helps clear up some things.

😆 Snodde detta från ett annat forum:
Har varit medlem på 420magazine.com i några år och detta trotsar ju vad de flesta här inne verkar tro om Hermisar!
