Hermi seeds?

I have a set of six plants from bag seed and they all are showing buds after switching to flower. I was told that all the seeds might just be predestined to be hermi. Is that a thing?

That is a thing, but most the time you get hermies from stressing the plant. A hermie is a plant that has female and male parts. Basically they fuck themselves giving you seeds in your bud

I don't see stress as being a factor here, because stress wouldn't make a plant female, so there's no reason why all would be female, plus they have shown no signs of stress and I have introduced no factors that would cause stress. Oh well. Whatever the case I have no choice but to take it all the way through.

Yea I'm not sure if they're actually hermi quite yet. I just found it pretty impossible for all six to be female from bag seed

Yes.
A self pollinated plant will produce about 80% herm seeds (voice of experience), whereas a plant pollinated by a herm will give you fem seeds.
Them fem seeds are a lot of time unstable. So it dosen't take much stress to throw bananas. I always use Hermed seeds outdoors cause a little pollen is no big deal out there. Inside totally a deferent story. I haven't grown a male plant outdoors in over 10 years.

They are simply not herms and all fem as a fem plant that threw a nanna in the original grow making your resultant all fem seeds.

A lot of bagseed is all fem as it simply came from fem grows, reg seeds not as popular thesedays.

Theres a lot of bad info here and what is read by lots of new bees - keep an open mind :-)
