do i wait until i get seeds or do i crop it just before?

also.. if i keep the hermie with a feminized plant, will the seeds from the feminized plant all be feminized too?

tis how they make feminized seeds, treat a female with colloidal silver to hermi it, propagate...so yer gonna be fuxing with genetics at this point, but yes the seeds will be of the "feminized" variety

hermies dont herm in all conditions, but if your plant hermied in yours, the offspring will likely hermy too. and in exactly the same way

question just is, is the plant worth it? (got a few 5% hermies myself, 1 seed in each bud or so, (1-3gram bud with a single seed) good stuff too, so i keep it around)

Your seeds will be hermie to. You can increase the chance of female seeds by breeding the hermie with a healthy female.

i just had the same problem, i was plucking roosters every day, which got tiring
just cut a 8 weeks of flower, partly because the plant looked fairly mature
partly because the damn rooster wouldn't quit, and digging them out of the buds was getting harder
but from what i see, it was mostly seedless
