Autos can be male. Femenized autos should be females.
I had a male auto Bruce banner that never threw one pistol it was strait male had another one herm on me and one grew with a ruderalis pheno so like 0% thc.
Ppl seem to forget that femenized and auto seeds are hybrids and with hybrids like those anything is possible.
Thats true, though you can still find regular, non femmed seeds for autos, but like you said, alot of those are hybrids, but a few are stable, like Lowryders. They breed true, all autos, and are a good one to use to breed crosses. So I'm told, anyway. lol. no experience yet, but I'm working on it.
