For practical purposes "hermie" will do... But, herma flowers, also known as bisexual flowers, have both male and female parts in one flower. This is the case for all socalled perfect flowers. For imperfect flowers there are staminate (male) and pistilate (female) separately, sometimes both on the same plant (monoecious), for other species, like cannabis, some plants have only male and some female (diocoecious).

Hence the phrase, cannabis is a diocoecious species with monoecious tendencies.

In cannabis a flower is what most errounously call calyx, and together form infloresence (what most call bud). If you got anthers (nanners, bananas) coming out of a female flower (your calyxes) you got a hermaphrodite. If some flowers in the infloresence are male only (balls, like after treating with cs/sts) and others female only, it's the infloresence that is bisexual and there are technically no hermaphrodite flowers.

So, a reversed female is simply not a hermie. If treating it causes it to actually produce nanners from female flowers instead of male or bisexual infloresence, don't use it.
