Two seeds in the whole plant is nothing to worry about, if fact it's like the prize at the bottom of a Cracker Jacks box

I would use the seeds assuming they look healthy and mature, but there is a risk that they may pass on the trait.

The effects of stressing out a plant ...as you have discovered are herming, she became an it, and self pollinated herself, perhaps or maybe just some 'wild' pollen got at her, but maybe you are right, those seeds will grow into hermie plants. you won't know until you try, but as a noobie its never a good thing to mess about with bad seeds, continue your education in a positive way remove stress from your grow space and get fresh new seeds

Feminized herb is easily persuaded to make nanners. It takes a lot more stress to herm regular seeds. ANY plant can herm , this is true. Two seeds in the whole crop does not sound like a real herm problem, but those S1 seeds are likely to be very unstable so personally I would not plant them.

Seeds are cheap enough to not risk a full power herm in your garden I feel.

I would like to point out that the OP did not say anything about having seen nanners. It is entirely possible that stray pollen which is microscopic and can travel hundreds of miles on air currents is responsible for the seeds especially as it is only 2. Grow them out, clone them and sex them and if the meds are good keep them.

So it's 50/50 on the seeds I got femnzied seed to grow but ppl made it look impossible to hermi a feminized plant!
Typically stress is the reason female plants turn hermie, but also there is a hermie trait that can be passed onto the next generation
Hard to say which is applicable in your case, as one would think if you treated them similar that they all should have became hermie, but I also assume the seeds were from the same source

Well I guessed you proved them wrong, as feminized can turn hermie

It is easier to get them to put out nanners than it is for a regular plant but they're not fragile ticking time bombs if they're happy and come
from a decent breeder.

A feminized seed will hermie easier than a regular seed every time.
Show the proof buddy....

Oh wait, you cannot because there is no proof....


Now, you CAN prove some strains are more hermie-prone than others, but then that goes with regulars and fems..

Myths are a bitch, especially with people continuing to spread them.

That could very well be your culprit right there. But hey some people actually do that on purpose to make their own feminized seeds. I say toss em out in the woods or something and who knows maybe you'll get some xtra bud out of em. I actually got 2 seeds from last seasons run from regular beans. And the males were gotten rid of long before they went into flower (sexed cuttings from each plant)
The seeds were from girls that were left to have a high amber tricome %
But they were also outdoors and who knows if maybe a bee or something carried pollen from someone else's plants to mine. I didn't notice any nanners though when they were chopped. I'm gonna try and germ em regardless.

Looks good and you did a good trim job.

Just keep in mind hermie is a trait of cannabis, all cannabis. Breeders have tried to stabilize some strains and they have done a really good job on some strains. But, there are plenty of strains that a sneeze at the wrong time can cause them to start popping nanners. Especially strains with thai in the genetics.

Looks like some tasty smoke there.
Next try to make your grow go as smooth as possible with little to no stress. You've got your feet wet now so you know the basics.
