Can anyone tell me how do they feminize seeds? Do they really all come up ALL females? Can I do it?

I don`t know, how they make feminized seeds, but, yes, all of them are females, but there is possibility, that some females also will have male flowers, making it a hermaphrodite.

The way that I remember it is to carefully spray a stem of a proven female with Gibberellic Acid. This causes the plant to herm. Then take a dark paper bag that no light can get through and put it over that stem. Turn the fans off for a few days, too. If you are careful, to only spray that one stem, then it will only herm just that stem, and the plant will pollenate itself. Keep the bag over the stem so pollen doesn't prego your donor plant or the rest of the growroom. Occasionally, give the bag a good shake. Eventually, cut off that stem and force it back into vegetative and after the main growshow is over, do a seed run with the treated stem.

Really, it doesn't take much to produce a lot of fem seeds. No need to get the stem really big. You can also use the stem to feminize female plant. Since the herm'd plant was a female that you forced to herm, they ony have an X chromosome. So it is really a fem plant knocking up itself, (or another girlfriend).
