No not all fem seeds turn hermy, but in every seed you have ever seen has a genetic ability to hermy. Just dont stress them out. Stress will cause it for sure, but one night of light im not sure it will hurt you or not. But, i can tell you my first good plants hermed because of a porch light, so just keep your dark period uninterrupted or you will have hermys.
Before you plant outside i would take them out in it a few hours a day and maybe use some shade so i plant gets used to the environment.
You will be fine man:rasta:

I've grown a few fem plants and have'nt had a herm yet. My last crop was a failure and had bad everything, even the light schedule was messed up, and still no hermi. So by experiance I would say they would be ok.

So I am hoping they are female. Will I used fem seeds again? NO WAY. Two plants out of five seeds is a bunch of arse!

I say it depends on the seed breeder's genetics and the stability. For example some seeds I got from BC Seeds (RIP OFF) all hermied, they weren't even fems.
All fem seeds I have bought from other reputable dealers are quite stable until the end of the flowering cycle and only rarely throw a nanner in a non-stress evnironment.
I have fem seeds I created that are so stable they will not nanner, as a matter of fact, right now, I am trying to get nanners by using additives to stress one enough to get some nanners so I can reproduce that species. (feminized)
Once that occurs that seed may not be stable. I will not know until it grows out as I could pick up a dna change from other generations in the past....
