We'll never know...
Are the seeds mature?
If the seeding was the result of a late-flower hermie episode, then I would expect to see a lot of immature seeds.

Many strains do this as they ripen-up. Survival technique, and all.
If the genetics are questionable, it's anybody's guess as to if, when, or how bad.

How long was your partner intending to go, 8 weeks?
If there are mature seeds, then the "event" didn't occur in the final week or so.
