We can get swept away by our thoughts,,or learn to step back and see them with clarity.

Whatever you get, you'll have seed with hermie traits.

I have been thinking of trying the silver method or buying some lemon zkittles pollen to use , pollen is only 25 bucks , if I were to use the silver what benefits does it have over pollen ?

After a little research of using colloidal silver I think the best route for me will be buying pollen , at least when applying pollen to bud sites there is just a bit more control , I don’t want mother’s full of seeds just enough to grow again and keep a few

You'd get a fast flowering hermi prone photo period. Autos are recessive. A photo auto cross will take 5 generations of in breeding to achieve auto flowering dominance. By back crossing the offspring hermi to an auto strain you could skip a gen so arrive full auto at the fourth gen. As your now at the second gen this is two more rounds of breeding. As your using hermi pollen you will never get male but you will get lots of herm.

By fem a photo then cross auto. You have a femme fast strain. You can't continue to in line this strain to make it auto.

THE ONLY WAY TO DO A PHOTO X AUTO IS REGULAR. Then you have to carry through the generations. Back crossing the offspring to the auto parent strain twice will arrive at true autos third generation that are 80% the original with better potency depending on the photo strain chose. Obviously chose very potent strains.

Hope this helps folks. :-)

CS: just take two photo cuts/clones. Treat one cut/clone in flower with CS, as soon as hairs appear. Once reversed you can segregate and collect pollen or just let it waft onto the second cut. If collected it can be applied more accurately to its sister cut. Either way femme photo beans.

You can do the same with the auto BUT you need to start treatment early. It takes 3-4 weeks roughly for reversal to occur. Start at week 3-4 of life in the case of autos.

Don't clone autos just reverse one plant and breed it with a sister.
