Seeds from a hermie

Do seeds planted from a hermie produce mostly hermies or are they mostly females? I have read conflicting infomation and would like to find out.

they will lean town hermie also.

If the seeds of interest are collected from the plant which hermied and pollinated itself then the chance of the offspring being hermaphrodite is higher than if you collected the seeds from a true female pollinated by hermi pollen. Therefore my guess is that the seeds acquired from the formerly mentioned subject (hermie's seeds) should be more prone to hermie than regular feminized seeds which the second approach will yield (female pollinated by hermi). I don't know the exact ratios though.

here's what i've seen so far, i had some seeds from a hermie grow
a brainwreck badly hermied, started early and probably was genetic, plant produced pretty good smoke though
2 seeds grown out, 1st one had no trace of hermie, a very nice female, had a great smoke like the parent
2nd seed was a hermie, i grew it out anyways and pulled roosters best i could
final result looked good, even smelled like parent, was some hideously strong pheno that was very unpleasant
the moral of the grow, never know what might pop out
and the seeds are feminized seeds, mostly female offspring, or so i read

I'm trying to figure out what these seeds will do, The plant is Maui Wowie with large buds covered in trichomes. It's about a week from harvest. I only see the seeds in a few buds in the lower branches. I am hoping that the buds will still be top shelf and there will be some useful seeds. Is it possible that the seeds are only in a few buds or will they be in all of them?

if you've checked closely, should be a few seeds, though i guess it's not a sure thing
see lots of growers that end up with a plant that hermied a little with just a few seeds

are you sure it just wasnt pollenated? pollen can travel miles

I don't think it was pollinated I think it may may have turned hermie from being stressed because the other plants are fine. I did yank out two white widows that were male but I pulled them out as soon as I could determine the sex. For reference I grow indoors in a 4x4 tent in the basement. The MW was grown from clones and WW from seeds.
