It's pretty straight forward. If you are looking for feminized seeds, you need to spray a female plant with a silver mixture. Any type of silver will do - silver nitrate, colloidal silver, etc. I prefer colloidal, because it is relatively easy to find/make. Mix a spray bottle with about 75-100ppm, and start spraying twice a day 2 weeks before the flip and continue until you see "nanners" (pollen sacs). Collect the pollen from the nanners, and chuck at your leisure.

in doing so.am I asking for hermy city from the proginy?
"Hermie prone progeny is a myth. It's the parents, not the feminizing process, that determines the offspring's chances of being hermie prone or showing signs of intersex. The same holds true for regular, non feminized seeds as well. If the parents hold the genetics, it's likely to show in the offspring. Stable parents, stable children. Pretty simple really."

I like how @racerboy71 puts it. Best of luck.

Thanks for your response, I see i wasn't making sense
. I have pollen from my regular males I was wondering if I used it to pollenate a feminised plant would I have a strong possibility of hermies.i have never pollinated a feminised before but have done tons of regular breeding.thanks for your time.

The bottom of his post answers your question if the parents arnt throwing nanners under stress chances the children will are slim but it happens sometimes nothing you can do

no ive pollinated a female that came from femenized seed a couple times with regular male pollen and the offspring generally dont exhibit any higher frequency of intersex traits unless one of the parents is already hermi prone, shouldnt be an issue.
