Nah. I was skeptical of feminized seeds. Ordered several different strains. No hermie issues. Going to order again.
I wish I would have gone with feminized. I had four seedlings. I had room in my grow room for two five gallon buckets and two three gallon wastebaskets. Wouldn't you know the five gallon plants both grew balls while the more petite containers had the ladies. Oh well, more watering more often I suppose.

Yea out doors is no problem. But indoors 4 is all I can plant. I got tired of culling males.

I only have experience with Herbies. Anything on their top 20 feminized list is ok.

Me too! I was looking at swollen pistols and thinking, Shit!

I stay away from feminized seeds, I've been told they are more likely to hermie.
I think you've heard wrong. I've used numerous fem seeds across a few strains, including seeds a friend of mine made himself. I'm in the process now of making fem seeds. I've never had one hermie. Not saying they won't, but I'm sure the environment had more to do with an issue then the seeds did.

Be cautious where you get your info, get numerous opinions. Experience always trumps opinion.

false alarm swolen female pistols...im really just a newb-)
I'm sorry but that shit cracked me up lol...

If it makes ya feel better I did the same thing on my first grow n was tripping out...shitty thing is I did end up with a herm later on n that grow. Well IDK if it was a real 'hermaphrodite' but it definitely threw out a handful of staminate flowers
