Hermaphroditic male
If you did not purposefully stress the plant to go hermie, it may well pass the hermie trait along to all of the seeds it makes. This means you will most likely end up with females that also put out male parts. That is not really good, lol.
I have stressed (on purpose) many fems to force male flowers, and have never (yet) had problems with the resultant seeds showing hermie traits, but have never even thought of doing it backwards. (well...backwards to me, lol)
Here's what I think I know:
When a stressed female puts out pollen sacks, the pollen it produces has no male chromosomes, so seeds come out as mostly female. To me, it would make sense that if you stress a male to produce fem parts, the resultant seeds would be mostly male, as there would be no female chromosomes.
I'm not a breeder, nor a biologist, tho, and am interested in other folks responses to this.
