How do I turn my plant hermaphrodite?

Not true. If you force a female to turn herme and its not genetical than your safe. Thats how seed banks do it.

I took a female plant that I had that was 3 months old and about three feet high.
I cut it in half, yes in half, to try and see what happens. Mine hermied.
I need to retry, and this time use her for seed. I belive I will end up with only Fem seeds ?

ok so using Gibrellic acid to (force hermaphrodite) dose not cause the harvested female seeds to turn hermaphrodite, because its not genetical. That was my point before, which you said was "not true". lol.
that part was true, you are correct. i meant that the other method of causing a female to hermie through light stress or whatever and pollinating another female isnt a guarenteed female plant since its not an exact genetic copy. which the seed you get from the other method is.

I see so you gotta go the chemical way only. Stoked you showed me the right way thanks for that. Ya got some female mother plants of the Blackberry, Great white shark, and Himalayan gold. Gonna try to turn a couple clones hermie and get some free fem seeds :mrgreen:

I have mentioned feminizing some seeds but always get bad feedback.organic growers hate it some guys think there weak plants from the seed.BUTT.The shit ya use is 10ppm colloidal silver.Ya can buy the shit all over.My bro has some 1100ppm and some 10ppm he gives to his family,he's a little wierd.I believe you apply it for a couple of days in the second week of flower but I can get the details if you find youre CS.:weed:What it does is makes a pure single chromosone female bear male sex organs.I hear you have to dig the pollen out and apply it because the sacks are slightly mishaped.Anyway hit me up if you wanna try it.Ive been wanting to breed some seeds from one of my C/O Girls.

I was considering using either the storebought CS or pick up some gibberellic acid to force my fem'd plant to hermie but from what I've read the ppm in the store bought CS is too low to turn it hermie, can anyone confirm or deny this? Also, how much gibberellic acid would need to be mixed to spray one plant, I've heard it's pretty strong just dont want to over do anything. Thanks.
