well since there are enough readers and no responders i thought i'd shed light on my own question.
thanks goes to R3AP3R and Yourlocal420 for the knowledge and understanding.
Since you cannot clone autoflowers and constantly having to remove males from your garden, the best way to go about having an easier harvest would be to produce femanized seeds. and since the autoflowering ruderalis species are used to having sunlight all day, inducing them to turn hermaphrodite would seem pretty troublesome. but the solution to this problem is something i'd never guess.

Turns out that female autoflowering strains if let to grow past their flowering phase automatically grow pollensacks. presto! no need to stress a plant to herm, and you can collect fem pollen to produce femanized seeds. there are plenty of other threads explain how to collect pollen and how to pollinate a plant for seeds so theres no need for me to reinvent the wheel. I hope this info helps anyone as much as it has helped me.
Happy Weeding.
