Colchicine treating

[LOC NAR on probation]

I've read from a few sources that crushing Colchicine tablets or extracting the raw colchicine from the winter crocus bulbs and soaking your seeds in it is the most preferred and used method to feminize seeds....anyone have any input as to this method of feminization?

Crocus bulbs were crushed and plants treated with the juice in order to make a plant with way more flowering sites. Once treated the plant could not be consumed. It was only good for taking clones. With new breeds and genetic it fell by the roadside for being too dangerous. It's called polyploid. Do a web search you'll find it.
