Nuera I ran Barney's Farm Red Diesel last year, 4 plants over 3 grows I believe. Every one hermied except the last which I hit with Reverse for the first two weeks of flower.

That was last year, they could have had a bad batch of fems or just starting out with fems - this year's may be fine, other batches of seeds may have been fine. Have some Dutch Passion Reverse and Penatrator on hand in case things go bad.

I had several regular seed control strains growing at the same time, never a problem.

Most likely they'll be fine, there's a very small percentage of feminized seeds that go hermie - if you look through my Test thread you'd see that for every strain someone says hermied several other people come on and say that they've run that fem strain for years and never a problem. And Barney's Farm is a top shelf breeder.

If it does hermie there's only 3 options I've found (other than letting the bananas mature): chop it; pick each banana with tweezers (could be an hour per large plant each day, can be horrible.); spray with Penetrator and Reverse. Best to have a liter of each on hand before the problem starts.

BUT, most likely you'll have no problem.
