Ok I want to grow Plush Berry and get the most pink pheno I can find. Once I put them in to flower and harvest them (just the top 3/4), I will put them back on veg and keep the one that turned pink the most and most potent. Once back in veg I was going to cut two clones off her and Put clones into flower and spray clone #1 with CS to resex her and use the pollen from her to pollinate clone #2 so I can have that nice pink pheno in seed form. Will this work? Will the seeds be the pink pheno like its mom? I know they will be female.

s1 seeds, what you're talking about, aren't always an exact duplicate of the mother plant it came from unfortunately there will some phenotype variation..

you could just keep the revegged plant as a mother and take clones from her, that way you know for sure you're always going to get an exact copy of the plant you're after.

It will be female beans with diff phenotypes?

correct.. even in seeds from a fem'ed plants, there's lots of genes present that might not have been expressed in the mother plant, but will still be in the dna, and when a new seed is made, they might line up in another way and give different expressions then the plant they came from..

Ok gotcha I don't mind pheno hunting. You never know I could get a even pinker pheno. I'm just tired of the sexing. Im trying to get my bean collection to all females.

yea and why not just take clones and number them before you put them into flower ? it will save you time and light money. good luck on finding the pink phenol, I haven't found it thru 15 seeds.

I like to have beans also. You never know if you might need them one day is how I think. I also plan on breeding like 3 of the females popcorn nugs with a strong male that I get from a pack of 10 so I can get about 20-40 more beans. So if all else fell I have shit load of regular beans to fall back on.

why not try colloidal silver on the re vegged plant then it will be both parents this should lock down your desired traits and as long as all environment factors are ok they will all be fems or ive heard o stressing the plant to turn it in to a hemaphrodite will produce almost cutting like simularity to its mother/ father.

You can't deny having a taproot produces better, bigger, and healthier plants in a much shorter period of time.

to get that pink pheno you still have to stabilize it i think inbreeding with the same mother plant. probably wont be easy
