Fems and Hermies (changed title from 'feminize your own seeds')

Aspirin- I can't remember at the moment if that's a way to make chemical herms, but did you know that steeping willow twigs (yup! where aspirin comes from!) in hot water and then cooling that water will give you a rooting liquid? It is not as strong as commercial chemical rooting hormone, but if you are a pure-organic grower, it is a fine option for a more natural rooting agent.
Do not worry about salicylic acid being taken up and stored in the buds. Not that I would spray aspirin on plants in flower, but it is a very very safe chemical. I am not certain why you would worry about finding it in urine either, since it's perfectly legal, and an ingredient in many painkillers, anti-inflammatories, and blood thinners.

steeping willows = weeping willows?

Any type of willow.
Steeping= allow to sit in very hot, but not boiling, water for some time to extract the hormones in the young twigs.

what is the next steep to make sure i get a female crop:cool:

maybe dose 'em with Viagra ? ... make 'em tall and proud :S2:

If you ordered 'standard' seeds, you will get normal m:f ratios. The next step is to put aside one or two FEMALE plants in a breeding box and subject them to random lighting schedules during weeks 3-5 of flower. You should get seeds, and they will all sprout up female.

Stinky, I value your opinions and I have this ?. I light poisoned one of my plants to make it herm and it did. so the buds that are growing now with white hairs all over the place and I can plainly see the male sacs forming in places. can the buds on my hermed plant still be smoked and are the seeds produced on the same are they femmed or do I need to use the hermed pollen on another female to produce the femmed seeds. I have been growing for many years but I have always culled the herrmies as I also culled the males. Please enlighten me.:rasta:

Can you smoke a hermi plant? Yes! No problem!
Are the seeds produced ON the hermi plant BY the hermi plant femmed? Yup!
Can you use that pollen on any other plant, and also get femmed seeds? Fo'sho!
Consider yo' bad self enlightened, homeslice. :D

Thank you very much for such a quick reply and enlightenment:):rasta:

this would be perfect for auto strains but to try to grow a crop of cush is much :rastasmoke:
