The only thing you need worry about when growing outsoors is, who or what is growing around you...like up to a 1/2 mile. If you live in an area that still has "ditch weed" growing. That is left over ferrel growing hemp that is ruderalis. It could pollinate your ladies.

If you create female seeds by using say a "light poisoning" technique (screwing with the plant during it's dark period) to get hermie pollen, the resulting female seeds will not be any more prone to turn hermie then the origninal plant. As long as it does not see the same stress as it's parent that turned, it will be just as stable.

How do you think they grow acres of females in a field grown situatiion like say Thailand. They don't plant acres of seeds to go thru later to yank males and run the risk of missing one and pollenateing/ seeding a shit load of plants, they start with female seeds. And growers there have been doing it this way for hundreds of years.
