fem seeds are not guaranteed 100% female they sometimes are male stress may cause them to hermi but for the most part the hermi trait has been bread out

It doesn't change the genetics, it will simply pollinate and seed up the rest of your females.

Herms don't cause other plants to go herm. The only risk is pollination of the other females. The seed will produce all females, or females with herms. BTW Not all bad

my mistake!!!!!!!!!

i meant if u leave a fem thats hermied in the same grow room u run the risk of pollinating all the healthy females, meaning ul end up turning good healthy bud into seedy bud, i know what ide rather and it certainly isnt spending my time picking seed outa what could have been seed free bud!!!!

now do u understand what i was trying to say???
