use them to experment with or just throw them out and “seed” an area
After a lot of research
The plant is not a hermaphrodite. It is a female plant that had induced pregnancy (by stress, or can be done with colloidal silver). The female induced plant will produce female seeds. The seeds may be unstable. You have to keep an eye on them as you would a possible male.
But they should be genetic clones of the mother.
If you know for certain it was stress induced then the seeds should.be good.
If someone is not sure why seeds appeared then its hermie that will produce more hermies.
I also still agree with they hypothesis that a light beam is more damaging, a different spectrum beaming in the summer, which is why moonlight doesn’t affect it in nature. In winter a beam of moonlight indoors may not confuse the plant as badly.

You do realize that moonlight is sunlight? Not sure what spectrum you think the moon is
Yes but the moonlight is reflecting winter sun 2700k
That is absolutely incorrect, using a light leak would be your safest bet. Interrupting the dark cycle of the plants growth with light.
Not likely
Makes sense. that and the sun is U/V rays shining down while the moon is lit up because its a reflection of the suns light… Nobody goes tanning @ night but they do go tanning in fake sunlit beds…
Thank you my brother cause I hermed a Bruce banner from ilgm and got about 500 to 600 seeds and gave 10 to my buddy and all ten were girls I couldn’t believe it. I’m am sooooooo happy again stay healthy

Right on.
I apparently overstressed some Nitro Lemon Haze. They were beautifully developing females. Great pistols and super bushy. And then pollen sacs started. I put them out of grow. Figured I would research if they had any use. Perhaps I will have feminized seeds?? Interesting you can create feminized by stressing. Might not be a total loss… wish me luck. First grow in 30 years. And decent seed is not cheap.
Are hermie seeds weaker? More susceptible to disease and infestation? @garrigan62 @everybody else 
I have hundreds of fem seeds from a female that was stressed in flower. As mentioned earlier it’s as easy as adding light during mid/mid-late flower to confuse the plant. I’ve been growing with these hermies lately, which all have been females but they have “issues” during grow.
Hermied seeds that come from the hermie mother are far more prone to mutations due to more recessive genes coming out but that can be positive or negative but all around more random
I’ve grown a few plants from Hermie seeds and so far all have been successful grows
I’m growing a plant from a hermie pineapple express.
Shes a giant female

Great info, thorough, thanks so much…still wonder about whether or not the seeds would be female or hermie, do you know?
So much misinformation floating around in here from under educated or inexperienced growers lol. The least misinformed post is the one from deathmetalhippie from Aug 19.
If you want a truly feminized seed you must collect the pollen from a female plant that you forced to grow pollen sacs. you use that pollen to impregnate a healthy non corrupted plant of the same genetic strain. Using a tiny paintbrush you take a small quantity of the pollen and gently dust one of the buds after it has begun to form in week three or later. the seeds born from that Union will be feminized and a good genetic most likely. this method also prevents your entire plant from becoming infested with seeds and being unsmokable, you can take one arm, even a single bud, and impregnate it with the pollen and then the rest of the plant will grow healthy, clean and smokable.
You must still keep an eye on it as you must with all plants because stress,environmental issues, lack of experience from growers, all of these things can contribute to a genetic turning sour. Some genetics are weaker than others and more prone to stress related problems. Eventually over time if you repeatedly clone a plant, using those clones to replace the mother as it ages out, it will eventually weaken the genetics to the point where small stressors will cause the plant to grow pollen sacs and develop seeds. any plant weak enough to grow its own pollen sacs and seeds are not seeds that I would want to grow for fear that they may decide to seed themselves without my direction at any point in the future.
So in conclusion I would not use the seeds that came from a plant that produced its own pollen sacs, but I would use seeds that came from a healthy female plant that was impregnated by that same pollen.

If anyone is curious my knowledge comes from 10 years experience, 4 years private, 6 years professionally for a licensed producer. I dont even know what drew me to this thread aside from the misinformation

I whole heartedly agree with you, great information. I just had an incident last month where we lost power mid day for a few hours and it caused a temp spike and the light interruption. Had a Fire OG (flower 3wk) and a G13 (flower 1wk) in the flower tent at this point. Now I have the FOG almost ready to harvest and the G13 has some seeds showing now. After further inspection I found some nanners on the FOG. That whole situation brought me here. SMH. My process for seeds is usually two separate plants of the same strain, one gets the CS and the other is my seed plant. I’ve read that this is the best method for CS as you are not using the same genetics, so you agree?

Welcome to ILGM forum. Is it possible for you to stick around and help educate people. While there may be misinformation, this forum has helped many beginners learn how to grow cannabis, myself included. There’s many knowledgeable growers here that helps with the basics. People here could benefit from your experience and it would be welcomed,no doubt.
