Just stress the autoflowering plant with a flashlight, and you have some feminised seeds for free lol :woohoo:

Had grown two seasons of autos and almost on a daily basis I watched them with flashlight in the night, and most of them gave me some seeds :D
Just germinated yesterday 6 of each Northern Lights Blue and Think Different, and I have some more of them :)

out of curiosity how bad did they herm???? full on balls, bunch of nanners or just a few...as I have sprouted seeds from plants with just a few nanners and most off spring were ok or atleast easy to deal with...cant say the same about seeds from the others..if a female forms balls or lots of nanners out shemale goes...yeehaw

Happy for you, but I wouldn't want unstable genetics. To each their own. Shine on!

Didn't saw one nanner, could be that it was deeper in the flower :)

So, I don't think the offspring would be herm so much as here is stated... and I don't need to pay 10 Euro for one feminised seed...

The same thing with the last autoflowering grow, almost every plant gave me one or two seeds, and I didn't saw a nanner either.

What about NOT using a flashlight? Next run with those seeds and make an attempt at a solid photoperiod and you should be fine. Although it's true, you are effectively encouraging plants to grow that self seed themselves.

Why should I not do that on autoflowering plants? That's the whole point, they are enlightened :D

I'm not talking now about photoperiodic ones, it's another topic, but I plan to sprout some these days :)
