HGB said:that it will indeed a breeders worse nightmare there thats for sure.....
same as fem seeds..... wish there wasn't such thing

LLCoolBud said:Erm from my knowedge those will be feminized seeds not hermie seeds, plants have to be mistreated to create hermies. In a few strains there is hermis traits because of them growing in extremely harsh conditions for the most part rare landrace sativas.
If you buy any seeds and your plants hermi you jsut will have some feminized and slighly mutated and unique seeds. It will not create hermi seeds all self polinating just take care of them and maybe take a chance and look for light leaks in your gorw area ect.

sorry, but this post is sooo far from factual that I don't know where to begin...
..I guess suggesting reading the "sticky" at the top of this section would be a good start.
"Mendels P square".. first..
here is more discussions on the subject.

"IF"....the seeds are from a hermi pollination, they may well tend to produce "mostly" fem's the first fillia(generation)...but the hermi' gene IS still present, at best, as a recessive trait. And "WILL" in a future generation, rear it's ugly head.
A very respected and reputable breeder once explained hermies to me like this..
"If you leave a plot of "drug quality" mj to go feral, procreate itself, within a few years(generations) they entire crop will revert to hemp"
"Why?..because the Paternal side of the gene pool is dominated by early flowering males and hermophradites"
Leading to the conclusion, that the secret of "improving and maintaining quality cannabis", lies in the recessive traits of "late" flowering males.
..and making the point that hermi's are detrimental to the gene pool of the same..
