Ok so I got an idea to get some seeds off my plant.

So here we go ... I would cut the top buds , since they are ready .
Then I would stress it so the bottom bud can get seeds .

I'm not sure if it would , That's why i'm asking you experts

Now , Post away

you wont get any viable seeds in the amount of time left before you harvest the rest. If you are trying to self a plant you need to take a clone in veg and not flower the clone until about a month after you flower the mother then use the pollen collected from the stressed mother to pollinate the clone.

I suggest you should buy some regular seeds (not feminized or autoflowering) and try to get atleast one male and atleast one female plant and breed them.

They are made that way, but you have to pollinate a different plant with the pollen from the male flowers, also, you want to choose genetics that have very little hermaphriditic traits to them.

Two things: yes they will make seeds if you leave them long enough - at the sacrifice of your buds. Two: they probably won't be viable. The plant doing this is a "last resort" tactic to insure survival of the species. You would be much better off to go ahead and take the cola, leave the rest for another week or two for those buds to fatten up, then take them. Then get some more seeds and start over, or get some clones from a friend or whatever. You can't take fresh seeds and pop them in the ground right away anyway; it takes a few months for them to die before they are viable.
