2024 outdoor show an tell anything an everything outdoor is welcome.

Just 9 acres. Males are small, in 1g pots, off in the woods. As soon as I collect pollen they get composted. You think that's taking too much of a chance? Done it the past 2 years and have not seen even a single seed in dozens of plants (other than branches I dusted manually last year), but maybe I should rethink this approach.

If it keeps working go with it! I'm not very fastidious about my pollen chucking, I figure that they are all quality genetics. I collect my pollen indoors in the spring, but I could easily get some cross contamination when I am collecting pollen from 2 different males that are in 2 different tents in the same room. If I tried to run males outdoors the Oklahoma wind would get more pollen than me.

There mostly completely organic I didn’t wanna smash them w bottled nutes anymore trying a different approach hoping to get a completely natural non influenced taste

I grow my males outdoors and wait until the first male flowers start to drop downwards like they do before opening, then I cut the top off bring it inside so it's isolated from the outside plants. Then I put it in a vase in a window and collect the pollen as the flowers open.
Moisture makes pollen nonviable, so after I dust a branch with pollen I cover the pollinated branch(with a bag or something), then mist the rest of the plant(s) that I don't want to be pollinated, with water. That way you don't get cross contamination of pollen, or seeds other places on the plant where you don't want them.

Hindu kush is starting to flower, not very tall but it's wide.

Thing One is much earlier with shorter nodes, no stretch at all.
Thing Two doesn't look as promising, no pollen for her.

The strech is over and my greenhouse has filled in nicely. The dew on the panels tells me I have fire up my dehumidifer very soon.

The last few days have kicked these early birds into flower still got a male hanging around soon as I see pollination I will remove it. I thought with my late planting plants would stay smaller lol nope will have to raise the poly when it goes on next few days

 

[The-Liquor]

Looking good! My EB is kicking in now as well

Same here, stretch is pretty much done. My Oreoz is in the third week of real flower, starting to stack up nicely. Still waiting on the Mai tais to kick in.

Grand Daddy Purp/Blueberry/Girl Scout Cookies/Chili Verde x Royal Kush. The morning dew accentuating the trichomes. I really like the nose on this one! Unfortunately, I'll be racing leaf septoria to the finish line.
