I would like to hear what others think of what you are saying, because for example earl flushes for 6 weeks! past "ripe" harvest time and his plants dont just magically hermie.

A plant shouldnt hermie just because it is past peak ripeness. to me that just doesnt make sense and further more seems to be the "wrong" way to force hermphapridism.

Why would it be the "wrong" way? In my (OPINION) it is the most natural and non-synthetic way to produce male flowers on females. In nature, if the female marijuana plant fails to receive pollen, late in the season she will most likely produce male flowers as a way of preservation.---I learned this method from a breeder years ago and have use it quite a few times with great success---To be honest with you, I thought all growers and breeders were using the same method-I guess not. Anyway, The seeds I have produced using this method have a high germination rate and a very, very low herm rate.

As far as the "EARL" flushing for 6 weeks past peak ripe---You've got me stumped on that one---If I flushed my plants for 6 weeks period(it wouldn't matter when) they would become severely nutrients deficient and probably die(plant stem and leaves have about enough stored energy to get you through a 2 week flush) my rooms look green as grass 2 weeks before peak and yellow as a bananas(fan leaves) at day of harvest. I don't have the answer for that one---Maybe the plant is using the energy of the buds to sustain itself??? I don't know.

Natural and nonsythetic could also be just exposing them to 1 hour of light during the middle of thier night cycle in flowering.

That way you dont have to wait extra weeks for the plant to make you seeds past 8 weeks. You will have a plant full of seeds by 8 weeks flowering time.

The only methods I have ever heard of for producing Feminised seeds are:

Light Poisining
Gibberlic Acid
and Collodial Silver.

I have yet to hear of your "past Ripeness" theory.

Although I can see what you mean about a plant not recieving pollen late in the year and winter approaching.

However, this could also be because the light cycle changes and it is a form of light poisining.

If the latter is true, then no need to wait additional time past harvest, just do it early in flower!!!

Just to give you an idea of how it works for us-----

When our flowering rooms peak we harvest all but a few"heavy producers" we don't need more than a few and this also allows us to fill the room back up with clones immediately---The lights never change 12 on/12 off--we never move the lights with the exception of up or down. After 2 or 3 weeks the "few" will have produced male flowers--we carefully put them in a plastic bag if we don't want the next crop to receive that pollen. We then harvest the "few".----The pollen we collected will be good for up to one month so we always have a room of clones in flowering if we are making female seeds---the nice thing about this method is that you can pollinate one or many plants----the choice is yours. Again-I have used and tested this method many times---it works.

One more thing---they had a guy on the "opera" show who drank that CS for years and his skin was silver!!!---he looked like the silver surfer--no shit!!!

Can ya do this just to one branch, or will the whole plant be effected?

I just stress da hell out of a runt clone.

thanks for the advice. i will let you know if i get it to work for me

well I sprayed 2 plants with colloidial silver about a month ago on 2 outdoor females(1 northern lights,1 napalese grizzly). I sprayed each only once with a heavy dose and later decided I did not have enough plants outside to do this experiment and started to spray only a small clone regularly with CS. Well on my 2 plants that I sprayed once(2weeks into flowering now) they have started to produce male flowers in the buds. Bummer cuz I wanted seedless but kinda cool cuz Ill pollenate some buds on my other pure fems. So my question is what is the best way to go about using this pollen to make good fem seeds? how many seeds should you test to see the quality of the fem ratio?
Ill get pics up later to show the reversed sex with CS.

This is the northern lights that I sprayed with CS. Its pretty crazy cuz 2 days ago I still thought it was all female and then looked today and saw shit loads of nanners forming. Going to use some pollen on another female. hope the female seeds arnt hermie.
The first 3 pics were from 2 days ago and the other 4 were taken today.
