Thug pug genetics anyone?

I haven’t tried it myself, but I did a lot of research on the subject and from what I can tell a good method without seeding your entire crop is the Q-tip method. Run your male that you want to collect pollen from in a separate area and collect the pollen in little glass or plastic vials. Then when you want to start pollinating turn off all the fans in your set up, dip the Q-tip in the vial with the pollen and lightly tap the Q-tip over the branch/bud you want to pollinate. Like I said I haven’t tried this before, but it seems like the best method without seeding your entire crop.
Does seem to make sense
Still makes me too nervous thinking of introducing pollen to my room lol

Guess I must just need more space, oh well

No way man, that's a solid addition to the thread

That looks stellar
How much room do you find you need to run a male for pollen without totally fucking up your flower rooms?

Wish I had more space to add some of your genetics to the room, I wouldn't be able to do anything with them for a bit unfortunately
Hit me up when you do have room - I'll still have extra. These aren't being 'released' or anything, just hopin to gift some out n spread the word, get some views via getting tagged on IG.

So I actually got real lucky. I only run a 4x8 tent (I'm actually very small time I only produce flower for me so no real worry on screwing anything up), I've got the space to run between 18-50 some odd plants depending on pot size.
But I've also got a 3x3 tent with a Viparspectra TC450w LED. Far from optimal but it works for small stuff and flowering males.

Lucky because I had a buddy who lived a couple houses down from me who was interested in growing and gave me the assist on location to set up my 3x3 there. I had to bring him the PHd feed and everything to give them each time but it's a 1 minute walk, no biggie.

When it was time about 3-3.5 weeks in I brought my chosen ladies over to his place in a cardboard box, put them in the tent with the stud, and let them spend the night with him :hump: after shaking him all over to release the cloud. In the morning I came back, sprayed everything in the tent down (male, females) real well to neutralize any remaining pollen that hadn't set in and done it's business - and then brought them back to my shed outside, let them dry up, re sprayed them down, and then reintroduced them into my flower tent.

As expected - a tiny amount still did spread but very little, only found a couple beans on a couple ladies (Like that single seeded sophiesbreath diva I posted some pages back). So overall it was pretty darn successful I'd say - and that's how I hope to do any further crosses. This next Ice Cream Cake x Kushmints 11 pollen chuck I have planned may actually just need to take over the room because my buddy has since moved to another part of town.

- Anyways, that's how I did it! Of course making sure I went right to the shower with clothes right to the washer any time I visited to check on them.
I strongly encourage anyone with the potential space or location to try this...I've waited 7-8 years to start making beans and it feels so cool to see something growing that would never have otherwise existed at all. :eyesmoke:

Here's how my G6 x Strawberries is looking at the moment - so I'm quite happy so far how the project is turning out.

Dang that is a pretty fortunate run at it, all in all that sounds like it went swimmingly lol
Now you've got me thinking about where I can stick a tent for a male or two haha

Those sound like some great crosses man, that G6 Strawberry looks thick and like it's got some great structure

And I think both of those packs ended up at $400 when that auction was wrapping up, I'll be curious to see where that one lands

What rado packs you gonna be gettin into? I got in on that freebie from the applejuice drop and got an Apple Sundae pack of regs.
I honestly don’t even know yet my collection, if you can even call it a collection it’s more like hoarding has a lot of different gear from Rado. I really liked the Lemonessence I ran from him and the Blueberry Sundae, but after seeing tuna’s and @nc208 runs of Fresh Biscotti({Gushers x Gelatti} x Biscotti Sundae) and the terps they described I’m kind of leaning towards running those.

I've ended up with a couple of CannaRado packs in my vault

I think I missed out on that Lemonessence, what was the cross on that?

I've got a pack of that Blueberry Sundae though.
Did you find any really heavy blueberry leaners in there?

I've got Blueberry Sundae, Nila Wafer, Daily Intake, Daily Grape, Sasha, Papusas, and Sundae Driver F1

All these strain names make me want snacks.

Heres my PBB bonsai mom ready to take cuts from! Best way to preserve genetics right here. Takes up 0 room. Shes chilling in a 3.5”x3.5” pot for about a year now. View attachment 4561457
How do you keep it so happy in the tiny pot for so long? Isn't it pure-rootball inside of there? :D
I always find it fascinating how big some people grow plants in such tiny pots - I just can't do it my plants get pissed! But I probably have bad watering practices/schedule. Assuming from the pic you're hand watering too? Nice job!

Lemonessence is (Lemon Jack x Lemon Tree), it had some serious candy lemon terps and would be amazing for concentrates. The BBS I had two different pheno’s. One was very short and stocky with some strong musky Afghani funk with hints of blueberries, while the other was short and stocky but a little bit more branching out and stretch during flip and had straight candy blueberry and grape laffy taffy terps. You definitely can find some fire out of the packs you got. I’m planning on using either the Nilla Wafer or Wedding Cake x DoHo crosses from Rado to try and find a WC dom pheno to hit with a Unicorn Poop stud (if I find one) to try and make my own version of Wedding Poop.

Nice, that sounds promising
I always love good strong lemon terps lol

I'm definitely hopeful, I ended up with a good amount of grape terps
I'd love to find something with a good strong blueberry profile, I had a buddy who ran DJ Short True Blueberry forever and it was amazing

I ended up with a good amount of freebie packs as well, lots of those DoHo crosses
Really also looking for any Cookie Crisp crosses I can get my hands on lol

My seed collecting is starting to get unreasonable lol
