The only way to get pollen from a true female is to treat it with chemicals, Colloidal silver is one way.If you can use light cycles or temp or whatever to stress a female into herm then she was already a herm.Google the Silver or use the search tool here.Google will most likely send you back here because we have the biggest spread as far as topic's.

I have used colloidal silver.... It would bee easier if you cloned her then treated the clone once rooted to pollinate her or another clone. It took about 6 -7 weeks for my treated plant to throw pollen, if you want to pollinate in the 3-4th week of flower you going have to put treated plant in flower 3 weeks sooner than the host. That's cutting it close just treating a branch especially if it's a 8-9 week strain

14 days of spraying once a day is plenty. I used 50ppm bio silver from amazon. started spraying 1 week before 12/12 switch and continued spraying for 1 week after 12/12 switch. Any more and I would have had a dead plant with no use. put the plant you want to pollinate in 12/12 around week 3 weeks after the treated plant and you will have seeds. it looks loke off of a freshly rooted clone treated and a clone rooted and vegged for 2 weeks I will get at least 100 feminized seeds

ooops sorry you are right somehow I put that but I meant to 2-3wks.....yeah my plants start to look like they are dying with yellowing leaves but then after like 4 or 5 day they turn around and start being ok....I have had to spray one plant for longer....it would not change whereas the plant next to it turned right away.....I am by no means an expert or experienced with this....I have done it four times and had ok success the first time and fairly good results the other 3.....I made my own CS with a 9 volt battery, the wiring harness associated with it. I then cut off the two wires and attached to the two alligator clips on the wires and clipped them to a silver coin and used distilled water......found the CS generator on a site and it works like a charm if you are not pressed for time.....some make it and sell it....I saw MattRiot has the spray....heard it works....no experience yet....might give it a shot and do a review....LOL
Hope this helps and clears up my mistake in times....Thanks tusseltussel for the kick in the pants!

No pants kicking here... I just got the stuff on Amazon it was 20 bucks for a 16
and i I maybe used 2 oz on a small clone so that's a total of 8 times , say 6 just because... So if I Getty 100 usable seeds each time then yea I'm willing to pay 20 bucks for that....wish I had the time to do the mad scientist thing but really ordering it then dumping a little in a spray bottle isn't bad
