hi, a plant makes its seeds for self-pollination for two reasons or for genetics so it is hermaphrodite but you see it, or when it is left more than necessary at the end of its flowering it understands that it has not been pollinated and for the survival of the species it makes a last effort and self-pollinated and the resulting seeds are natural feminized

Possibly, but not necessarily, they could be hermies or regulars.

Usually the genetic trait is passed down through the seeds so there is a possibility of a hermie. However. I've seen some pretty good offspring from hermies. If you have no other option. By all means. But make sure there are separated from your good crop and monitor them regularly just in case. You can take clones and once the plant doesn't hermie and you like what you have, you can keep it. If not chop it.

I have had this happen a couple of times. 99% of the time the seeds where female and the plants where as strong as the parent plant.

you can do a fast test to figure out that the seeds are strong and good to go is to press the seed a little with your hands and see if it dissolves, it is not good, if it doesn't break you are good to go!!

Those 3 seeds will be 100000% female. In every plant I grow I always find 1 to a maximum of 3 seeds they alwaysssss turn out 100% female and of same exact genetics and stronger. If the plant was truly happy even without a male near by she will want to extend her liniage and does that by making a veryyyy few seeds if any
