you will get mostly female seeds, but, you will get seeds with a hermaphroditic tendency ... definitely not a trait you want to sustain ... I don't get hermies, but will destroy them, when I do ... :smokin:
Depends on which hermie! If it is a heavily stressed or elderly plant, yes, you will get feminized seeds. Hermies from old or stressed plant have female genes. If it just hermied under the best conditions, you will get a mix of hermies and females. "Drop of a hat" hermies tend to pass the trait along. Either way you should get a majority of female plants (which MAY hermie).
