Yeah, I bet its really not that difficult. You just apply the colloidal silver on one branch and then bag that branch til it throws pollen. Then turn off all your fans and collect the pollen and dispose of the branch? Do you actually keep the rest of said female and smoke her bud? I heard its not safe to smoke any of the plant after using the silver on it
I first find a proper clone to make the she male, a keeper cut.. after thats done, I by far prefer the STS method over colloidal silver, spray your clone down until dripping, let dry naturally, throw in 12.12... hit it again in 5 days, even tho you don't have to. And you will have fully converted females to F males. Growing big perfect pollen sacks reliably, I had first pollen last time on day 25 after switch.

Could you please explain this in more detail? Never heard of the STS method

It's cool to make some beans of your own for fun, but if you don't know the marijuana plant itself, then you really don't even know what your crossing,
learning to grow the plant, will NOT teach you about the plant its self.(Give you the eye)
That comes from spending many years together haha then we know each other. Lol
Like if I handed any person a nug, everyone that was interested in breeding (as a job)should be able to tell me the origins of that nug give or take a lil.
Keep in mind cookies, OG, chem, all that just nick names not orgins.
This is also why I cancel out many new names that have been given to strains, and go back to what they was known as in the 90s. Like "purple badlands" fuck that lol it's blueberry chem. Not even a purp in that line.

Yea breeders don't want it in the public eye haha, you gotta take 2 cheap lab chemicals and distilled water mix into 2 parts a part A and B then mix together, the dilute at 1 to 9 ratio. Chemicals are sodium thiosulphate anhydrous and silver nitrate. There is a guide on it somewhere tho, STS.
.5 gram SN.
1.5 gram STA.
Into 500 ml distilled h20. Each.

Yeah, I will literally just be backcrossing strains so I have a seedstock. Im not expecting to be breeding amazing new strains anytime soon. I need alot more space, maybe a state license so I can do hundreds of plants and alot more experience like you said. I have no idea what traits are desirable to breed for.

I was referring to Moab he was asking me some questions the other day about it. Lol
Like I say cool for fun and hobby, but the pot heads will tear you apart, if you don't know your shit as a job lol

How much longer on the cdlc? Looks pretty plump. Nice job.

I popped 3 wedding cakes and lost one too. It came out with 1 cotyledon and one small leaf lol. The other 2 are doing good though. Very indica.

If you throw it in the dirt and bury that stem a bit, it might make a comeback.

Thank you! I think she's due next week. Starting to see mostly cloudy trichs with no hints of amber yet. Could be 2 weeks. Some other folks said they finished around day 95.

glad to hear the other 2 are well - sucks that the seed got this far only to be like "sorry guys you go ahead without me..."

You know i'm getting ready to put the girls into the dwc bucket tonight - i'll go ahead and whip up a small batch of coco/perlite and toss her in and see what happens

They certainly do look nice.

It happens sometimes. Natural selection and whatnot lol.

Last medium grown plants that will see my room. Now I can reconfigure the other side and change everything over.

That BH hates anything but hydro it seems. The white bucket is La Sage.

God damn right pockets getting deep. I’ve worked the last ten days straight without a day off and none of those days have I worked less than 11 hours. Most have been twelve hour days with storm work going into 12,2am sometimes this week then gotta be back in at 7. Had to be in at 6 last two days. Think was a little late one morning half hour or so. Getting tired man. Getting off today and heading south 10,12 hours to Florida. Need a vacation. Happy fourth guys.

I have a La Sage bean. Is that a good strain? Have you ever smoked it before? I agree, the BH doesnt like coco much, lol.
Never tried it. This one is the CBD version. It was a freebie.

I dunno what the fuck it's problem is lol. It's got 1 variegated leaf too.
