i need some advise PLEASE-- My 1st run something or all hermied- it wasnt bad at all- I got a few beans from each (4) strains.- They were all attitude fem, -turned out great. im now left with seeds from each strain. r they going to herm? if yes, will they herm faster than b4 and i'll load up w/beans wreaking the run?Do I need to plant extras cause might be males? Will they almost for sure be fem plants cause of herm pollin? would you run um ? Im living at a spot thats very hard to get beans sent to.​

I think it depends on how they turned hermaphrodite. If they turned with very little stress, then there's a really good chance most will be hermaphrodite. If they were majorly stressed into turning, they should be ok, they may have a slightly higher chance of turning.

Agree!
Ever hear of fem seeds? Thats how they get fem seeds they force a plant to hermi and all the seeds produced will be fem seeds.
If it went hermi on its own no stress or light leak, I would chuck them as the plants grown from them will have a very high likelihood of going hermi also.
As it will be a trait passed on threw the genetics.
If it was stress of some kind you will have a nice stock of fem seeds (not my thing but to each their own).

We all know what's gonna happen.
What they are telling you is the truth. Order or get some better seeds. But I would plant the seeds you got, who knows you might get lucky!

Yes very high. But if you don't have anything else going on, what the harm?
