I grew two hermi seeds outside last year. Neither turned hermi, one was very leafy and the other was excellent.

I don't buy seeds from the big seedbanks with stock photos anymore. Last year I had very bad luck with bogus genetics and waiting for my replacements.

Buying only from banks who actually show you their grown goods and give detailed info.

I'm still on the fence using hermi seeds, not much different that using reg seeds and weeding out males and I'm always vigilant throughout the entire grow anyway.
In Canada you can buy fem seeds for about $10 each. Why waste 3-4-5 months growing plants that come from hermied seeds. light,nutes,time wasted when for a few bucks you could grow from premium genetics & harvest a plant you'll be proud of with nice dense buds not full of seeds going snap burning holes ion shit and tasting like crap....for $10.......nope not me I have thousands of seeds I want to over plant the world with but not to grow at home.

I don't grow the hermi seeds inside. Notice I said two plants. I usually sprout 50 at a time so $10 each is a lot. I'm using Tony Green's seeds now but it's fun to see what crosses those hermi seeds make. Also had no seeds in my outdoor hermi seed plants.

Unless you were growing un feminized autos you would not get a hermi or seeds, in over 10 years of running autos never got a hermi, they flower or don't, the only thing I can figure is the breeder did not put enough rundelis in the strain and you were basically growing a photoperiod plant with just enough rundeles to cause the plant to flower so you got a few beans, run them and see what happens you may be pleasantly surprised.

For the hell of it, progress is a drag sometimes. 😊

LOL @Ponky, dude, you need to smoke some. Easy Brah. 🚬 🚬

@Charlie1387, you can grow it, sure. It came from a hermie so it may create a hermie, but not always. Grow it and see what you get.
Not all hermie plants are unstable genetically, most hermie plants are caused from light peeping. Light peeping can hermie the most stable genetics.

While I'm well-stocked with seeds from like three different seed distributors, I still plan on planting from a pile of hermied seeds. The reason? They came from a strain called Inzane in the Membrane, which was really psychedelic and sweet but isn't available anymore.
I believe the hermied plants happened because I had them growing outside near some security lights. After they hermied, I figured it out and turned the lights out. The following harvest (different strains) was great. But I gotta say, that Inzane in the Membrane was magical,so I do believe I'll be planting these next time.
