Pretty funny, but as soon as I saw Blueberry, Damn, and feminized in the subject I immediately thought "another case of the hermies".
I know that everyone loves "blueberry", but in all reality I'd just as soon see "feminized blueberry" (especially by DP) just go away all together. It ALWAYS hermies and I would just consider it "unstable" when feminized and only offer it in regular seeds. It's more frustrating to customers to keep seeding crops. I know it's not the breeder or seedbank's fault, but it seems like the DP Blueberry feminized is REALLY prone to it and it pops up MOST of the time.
If you've grown DP Blueberry feminized and not had a hermie, please share. I realize that people without problems will often never end up here.

I grew 3 DP Blueberry feminised, about 5 years ago. 1 hermied, all 3 showed that twisty, mutant leaf growth early on. 2 finished OK. No doubt that its not the most stable strain to grow in my opinion, but many fem seeds are prone to this.

the seeds will have a tendency to become a hermi, I wouldn't use them if it was up to me.
one of the parents already showed you that it becomes a hermi quickly. why would you want to preserve that gene?
I would kill the hermi to avoid any further contamination, keep the grow and dispose of the seeds.

I agree with this dude ^
That plant has the hermi gene, you may well get some female but the mix of female to hermi would be the same as male to female in a regular pack.
Feminized seeds do not come from hermi gened plants, (apart from maybe dutch passions stock) they come from a stable female without the hermie gene and they use a colloidal silver solution to produce male pollen sacs and pollenate other solid females.

actually to create proper feminized seeds that doesn't hermi much they light-poison a batch of females, throwing all the females that went hermi and the one that kept as proper females and used for breeding. they then force it to hermi with colloidal silver. that way they know they are using a plant with a good resistancy to becoming a hermi.
