Female selection has been made. All three displaying deep purple in pre flowers.
Plant #1 _ Ahead in flower. Medium sized plant with good structure. Pre flowers are showing frost already. Its going to be a potent one.
Plant #2 _ A vigorous larger plant with all desired traits. Pest resistance in this plant was really high. She is flowering late but that isn’t a big issue this early in the project.
Plant #3 _ A really vigorous freak of a plant. Displaying all desired traits. Pre flowers are showing trichomes and will most likely be a potent plant. This plant reminds me of the F3 mother because it also has a crescent mutation. One of the branches on this plant was variegated and the top started showing the crescent pattern. I snipped off the mutated branch, so the plant wont waste energy on it while it flowers.
I will begin the neem oil treatment tomorrow. Spraying 2 times a week, for the next two weeks. Its should get rid of all the aphids that are lingering around.
I took several cuttings from all three plants. They are being thoroughly washed, and will be placed in the refrigerator for a week. That should kill off all pests. I will root them afterwards.
I decided to chop down male # 4. The flowers on that plant were developing really strange. I suspect that plant also had the crescent mutation. The other males are looking good and have started to release pollen. Pre flowers on females will be seeded soon. This will be a form of open pollination that will serve as a reserve seed stock. A safety net just in case the project gets derailed with the introduction of the Durban Poison. The Durban Poison flowered early and those genes are extremely valuable for this project. The earlier things flower out here, the better.
