Stress induced autoflowering fem plants to produce female seeds

Is it possible to stress induce two autflowering plants into hermaphroditism, then pollinate them both to produce all female autoflowering seeds?.... or will it produce only hermaphrodite seeds, or a combination of both? How does one stress induce an autoflower into doing this?

i would not suggest trying to stress your plant for seeds, the seeds will hermie out, i have a few diaries i have made seeds in, but i am using photo strains, i tried autos but because they are plants that are made to be automatic, they are very hard to do, you will have to grab or make some spray and you will have to spray one plant before it shows signs of sex, like right around the 3rd week in veg right before flowering starts, you can make the col. silver yourself or you can make the silver thisolate spray yourself, i have made both before and both do work, i can send you the recipes if you want or you can find the col. silver on ebay and sometimes the other. you can stress out a photo to make seeds yes but you have the extra time to do that where autos are on a time line to veg for x amount and flower for x amount until the plant is ready to be done with her life. i have mad seeds using males as well as i made female seeds using the spray, so if you have any other questions just ask

This is how they used to produce "feminized" seeds. It produces all female seeds that are more likely to be hermaphrodites than normal seeds. Still better than non-feminized seeds though. Nowadays, they use colloidal silver to induce self pollinating without the added hermaphrodism problems. This can be done at home, look into it.

You can buy some colloidal silver and spray the plant with it. Google before you start on when to start. It'll give at least a 95% ratio of feminized seeds. - DO NOT smoke the buds, if you do this tho. The plant will absorb the colloidal silver, and you really don't want to get it into your lungs.. The seeds won't be affected however, so you can smoke the next one. There are other ways to induce this behavior, but colloidal silver is by far the easiest as far as I know. - You'll lose two plants, but gain a buttload of seeds in return, which should be worth it. - Besides, the plants will focus all their energy on the seeds anyway, and so completely stop the production of THC, so it really won't be worthwhile smoke in my opinion.
