Converting females to males

I have tried converting some female plants to male so that I could harvest some pollen. After some internet research, I sprayed the plants at least once per day with 30ppm colloidal silver. I started doing this a week before I flipped the lights and the three weeks since flipping. So far, I have no colloidal silver left and two healthy looking, flowering females - not a testical to be seen!

So, I've given up on these two plants. I know smoking anything from them is bad news but is there anything at all I can use these plants for? It seems a shame to bin two healthy looking plants.

That is the reason I'm trying to clone first then treat the clone for pollen. That way I don't waste the whole plant. I'm not sure if there is a problem using sts with CS but you could try. I've heard sts is faster than CS but I have no proof.

Yes, I got some STS yesterday and am trying that on another couple of plants. I'm using clones too
