Cloning autos for seeds

[Gary Laser Eyes]

Can you produce seeds from a feminized autoflower by spraying with colloidal silver? Another question could I clone an auto and keep it small for sole purpose of making more feminized seeds?

yes you can, but you generally need to either collect pollen and pollinate a different plant yourself. or start the "male" 3-4 weeks early.

getting the timing right is the tricky part.

I heard you could spray it with that stuff to produce pollen sacs on a female plant so the same plant plant cant actually pollinate itself only a different plant?

well the problem is the flowering time is so short. to get the male parts to develop and produce viable pollen takes a while and normally in the wild a male will have just done it already. We have to wait and force a female to do the job for us.

you can definitely try it, (and it probably will even work) but i think you will find getting the timing ideal, that will dramatically improve the return.

I'm still learning about all this too!

Yes. I do both without issue. I take two clones prior to flower. I spray one, clone and pollinate the other. The timing won't matter much with the clones because they are strictly for seeds.. So you can let them go much longer than you would a normal plant. The process is called "selfing".. This is what "S1" means.. Like Gelato 33 for example. There were never reg seeds made of it because it was a clone only. SJ used selfing to make and sell the Gelato 33 S1's.

That's pretty interesting how that was done I'll have to try that soon

That's pretty interesting how they did that I'll have to try it if I use one strain for pollen and another to pollinate will it cross both strains into a new one as it would with a male and a female?
