i would go ahead and grow it anyway keeping a close eye on any male characteristics (skinny, tall, balls) while also trying my hardest to keep the plant from being stressed which along with the genetics can also cause hermies. you could end up with a fine female on your hands. nature does tend to be random at times.

growing this supposed hermie seed should be an excellent learning experience for you. just compare it to the clones you have already grown paying close attention to the early budding sites which are usually on top. if they dont look like your other preflowers chop him down. i myself have only seen female flowers in person but from the pictures all over this site i can tell the difference in a heart beat.

If you got a seed from a hermie plant then your gonna have a female hermie plant for sure !! Yes you can spot the herm or male spots, but you have got to look dilligently everyday and pick off the male parts. Also you can buy Dutch Master reverse and the Penetrator , use as directed and should help prevent hermie action , hope this helps ??

yes i have studied all the pictures of both hermies and males any chance i get. hermie flowers tend to show on the lower bud sites of the branches where the small underdeveloped popcorn buds would be on a normal female. sometimes they pop under already existing buds. my advice would be to carefully look at every budding site on the plant. some type of magnification tool would help a lot with finding those balls.
