Could you mix pollen to make new strains and fems?

Hello, do you think that by mixing the pollen together from different strains before sprinkling it on a plant you could make a new strain:?::leaf: Also by mixing a 65-70% female pollen with the rest male could you create fem seeds:?::weed:

you could but it would be.......... well here is the deal you mix pollen now you have no clue what your gonna get, you could polenate seperate branches with difrnt pollens to get difrnt crosses and to get fem seed you need to either use some fancy chemical or stress a fem into producing pollen(balls) then pollenate a fem with the fem pollen

mixing pollen wont make a crossed strain it will just give you seeds that are crossed with whatever pollen made it. you cant pollenate a pollenated plant so if strain A pollenates plant A then pollen b must pollenate a diffrnt part of plant A so it will create a seperate seed than pollen A

its confusing i know, it confused me, but in short mixing pollen together will give you crossed seeds but which are which, you dnt know so put your pollen in a bag put bag over branch to be pollenated and shake it around then mark what cross it is and repeat on a diffrnt branch with difrnt pollen and now you have 2 crossed strains on the same plant

mixing pollen will just give you confusion, pollen cant be crossed with pollen

So you are saying after you mix the pollen you add giberellic acid to the soil, or nutrient solution. Or before they make the seeds and you continue using the giberellic acid?

if you want but mixing pollen together wont get ya nuthin but a bunch of random seeds, if you wanna make a cross and know what it is than its best to keep pollen seperate and pollenate indevidual branches. ive never used giberellic acid so idk, you can still make fem seed without it though by stressing a female to produce balls than save that pollen to pollenate another female i would imagin you would use the g-acid from the day you pollinate on but idk

I thought that stressing them is supossed to make the weed danker? And female not seedy and herm.

stress will make it herm, well technically not a hermi but it will produce balls and pollen, stress in no way will make it danker. it will reduce yeild, extend flowering and produce man parts

no clue what your tryin to say here >>>And female not seedy and herm

of corse it will be seedy thats what you want if you are trying to cross a strain, not a hermie its a female with balls pollinating another female..... fem+ fem= fem seed

Isnt scaring, leaf tearing, branch snapping, and topping off the plant stressing?
it sure is. ther is no need to do any of that though except for certian situations like scrog, you can fill a screen faster if you top the plant.

scaring, leaf tearing and branch snaping........ sounds like tourcher to me, this does not make it danker it increases tops so you get bigger yeilds, unless you have a shitload of plants its best to not remove or tear any leaves, snap any branch or top any tops....... you can get the same effect from bending and tiying without the recovery time...... whenever you stress a plant it stops growing until it recovers from the injry so buy tyeing it instead you get the same results without the down time


if you do top or whatever its best to be done at least a week b4 flowering so it can recover and get right to flowering
