Using only 1 public tracker. DHT enabled in options. Question: if public trackers don't use DHT, where do peers with H flag come from?

Public trackers do use DHT.

From the DHT network. As you said you have DHT enabled in your options.
In other words public torrents find peers via DHT/PEX as well as any trackers you may have on them. In fact a public torrent doesn't actually need any trackers on it to function, it'll still find peers via DHT/PEX.
