What kind of seeds do self pollinated fem plants produce?

Grew out 2 fem seeds. Flowered perfectly, maybe a week longer than needed. Never saw a single nanner. But I've found a good mature seed in the flowers, and smelt few other burn.
my question is what kind of plants come from a fem plant that self pollinated.
 
there could have been bananas and pollen produced "inside" the bud (or where you couldn't see it) and most likely produces females prone hermaphroditic traits and self pollination, but that doesn't mean you cant use it for breeding introducing male genetics and picking the non hermie plants to keep on breeding, or that you could get lucky and get some healthy females when the environment is right
 
As long as the female plant hermi'd, then all of the seeds produced can't have any male genetics(y chromosome) because only x genes were present. They may also exhibit hermi properties .
 
i wouldnt worry too much, it could be a good seed. there are two very distinct types of hermie; first is the real fucked up genetics where the plants are both male and female and its a truly hermie pheno/strain and the second kind is regular male and female plants that are prone to hermie under stress, meaning strains/phenos that create a few bannanas when you harvest late or during a drought or under too much heat or cold. this are the most common ones and the reason some great bud has a couple of seeds now and then, under a healthy non stressful environment could be great plants (:
 
Yea a few nanners is NOT the same as the fu@&ed up bagseed hermaphrodites that makes ball-sacks.
Hermi plants make more hermi plants. If there was no sign last crop, you will be fine I think.
Should be feminized too.
 
It's got a chance to hermie, but big deal, it will still be killer smoke, and maybe even a few more free seeds, that are all female.
 
Sounds like rodelization. In the wild, some female cannabis plants will naturally start making male pollen sacs or "bananas" which can self-pollinate the plant. This happens if the plant is stressed, or if the plant is not harvested in time and buds start to die of old age. The plant is basically doing everything it can to save the next generation. This method is "natural" and these seeds will all end up being mostly female, but the problem is you're selecting for plants that naturally hermie (grow both male and female sex organs) without any chemical induction. This means the resulting seeds are much more likely to turn hermie in natural conditions too. That's a problem if you don't want seedy buds every time you harvest. For that reason, it's highly recommended you don't feminize seeds this way, and it's a good idea to toss any and all seeds that are the result of natural herming.
 
He said he only found 1 seed I believe , if that's the case an only was 1 or 2 seeds then it doesn't mean it hermied or will have hermied traits, Everytime I've found a seed like that it was fine .. if the plant hermied an pollinated itself the seeds would also Hermie.. however I don't think that's the case..

Edit:: NVM just seen where u said u smelt a few burning.. prolly r hermied, just keep close eye on them
 
If the seeds are from a stressed plant that was not corrected, in a timely manor- you hit the jackpot!
They will all grow out female and do just fine in a more stable/friendly grow environment.

I have noticed, they tend to take a few days longer to sprout - but they catch up over the course of the grow.
 
I only found 1 seed mature and intact after ride through grinder. In fact it was from the jar marked mids, meaning it was lower on the branch and plant.
I will keep this thread posted, it may be a long while till I find out what I got. Thanks for info and your experience with this.
Ps yes I did smell a single seed burn in about 3 other doobs before I found 1. All out of mid jar. 1st jar had no seeds.
 
The plant got stress in form of 400 hps light being within 7 inches in mid flower and later corrected. Breeder said 65days flower she ran about 75 before harvest. Thanks for all in put, if I get around to planting I will post an update.
