I think Lachenalia is self compatible. There is nothing to lose if you try. The thing with hand pollination in Lachenalia is that you have to look for a receptive stigma. The receptive ones stick out of the flower one or two millimeters long. Not every flower will show this. Normally there is a lot of pollen, so that is not the problem.
Personally I do not produce hybrids voluntarily. I know there are some good ones (Aqua Lady is a good viridiflora hybrid which I purchased) but this is another issue. Hybrid seed should be documented as such. I strongly recommend propagating Lachenalia by seed and not by bulbils because of virus contamination.
