Should germinate all five seeds

I've got 5 feminised seeds ready for new grow but only enough space to grow out 3 plants to maturity. Should I try to germinate all 5 and then pick 3 or save a few for another time. I've been told that the seed breeder I got them from (barney's) has a tendency to produce hermie plants so I'm worried that if I only do 3 then one of them might be a hermie or a runt but at same time don't really want to just waste seeds. Usually I grow from cuttings so not to experienced in all this. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks

Are they regs? I do 10 seeds at a time.
Once you weed out the males, and decide 1 or 2 are too slow there arent many left

I'm a cloning freak so I would pop 1, top her at her 4th node, once the cut is big enough to clone. Give it about a week and pull clones from the branches, of the now "mother". Yeah it can take a while but it's the best way I know to stretch a seed supply.

Killer idea that I wish I'd implement more often. I'm impatient to see what seeds will do.
