Best way to induce male flowers on female plants

Which method do you prefer? gibberillic acid,silver nitrate, silver thiosulphate, or colloidal silver?

Have used gibberillic acid successfully, but I am looking for something safer, but still effective. Friend recommended the CS as much safer. Any one have any experience with any of these?

never used it but theres a good thread for it here https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/78710-how-make-colloidal-silver-make.html

collodial silver is supposed to be easy to make than STS and easier to get tools to make it than STS or gilberic acid
my friend is a chemist and his mother has a doctrine in chem which she taught him alot of he says STS is alot safer than Collodial silver

Was at a friends house yesterday burning one and he whipped out a small bottle of collodial Silver and drank 2 droppers full.I remember doing alot of research and finding a recipe to use it in making male plants.Cant remember where I read it.I have a clone only strain called Shoreline.if you have ever smoked it then you know it is some of the best bud on Earth.Cloning sux with shoreline,you have to search out a cutting with the nodes a certain distance apart to have enough hormone too root.I generally only get one at a time or have to manipulate my light to get node spacing right for cloning.This is an F1
strain and dates back to the mother who was grown in the early 80's.It was once called gringo.The bottle of CS my friend has is like 4400 ppm anyone know where I can get the instructions for making a feminized male?

Woulnt it be better to stress a plant with maturity, light, temp, and pruning to induce a hermie rather than using chemicals?
From what i have read, the use of gibberillic acid causes a toxicity of the plant and the plants that those seeds produce should not be smoked, but the next generation can be.
Interesting post considering most people try to avoid such things.

Hermies beget hermies.No way i would let a hermie near this breed.

Male flowers on females plants is called what then if not a hermie?

There is a difference.When you take a pure female that has the single chrom and induce an auxin to make her generate male sex organs it is the key to generating feminized seeds(Pure fem).A hermie however is a plant which has dormant male chrom's also.Ya basically dont know what you're gonna get with a hermie,it is an undesirable trait.6 weeks into female flower they can grow balls.With fem seeds you always get fem's.

overdose and it will through bananas... I had it happen to me.. Raped her with nutes because I didn't understand soil yet.. EC of 3-4 which is insane for soil..
