Re-vegging a hermie to pollinate with hermie pollens?
When I stress my ladies into throwing flowers, I re-veg 'em. They come back without nanners. Hopefully yours is stable and from a first generation femmed seed, and not a strain hybridized to 'autofem'. (a technical term I made-up for 'turn hermaphrodite') But likely you found the source of their stress, and all will be fine. I'd say it's at least worth a try. Re-vegging gives you a huge head start.

And try not to fem fem's over successive generations if possible. The strain might decide to keep her nanners forever...
My major problem with re-vegging the sativa's (especially the leggier ones) is that the light doesn't extend down far enough, and the lower leaves tend to die-off. This means in order to keep enough foliage to promote new growth, your re-veg starts life at about a foot tall. No big deal if running HPS or MH in veg, but a pretty big deal if vegging clones or seedlings under CFLl's or fluoro tubes...
You can collect femmed pollen, and use it on ANY female cannabis plant of breeding age. The seeds will still be female.
