i have 3 out of 12 not showing color but the degree of color varies. the most colorful plants i have ended up getting seeded so my gene pool should be pretty good to make selections from.

No doubt thats not a bad ratio at all really..And u said ur room was in the low 80's right?? Im trying to make some seeds of LA DIVA from using CS spray and ive applied it for 8 days now and it is allready turning for me almost all hairs receeded so mabye another week of applying it, the only bad thing was i couldnt tell if the LA DIVA would be a colored 1 or not but i has some of the best structure on a plant ive seen very tight nodes 12 inches tall about 14 around and 18 nodes its crazy so that was made my stud..So how do u store and collect the pollen i know ur just letting go have an orgy but im trying to contain it better..I did CS spray the whole plant so i have pollen for enough seeds for my life time lol..But i only wanna put pollen on the lower branches of 1 plants and get 100 seeds or so and keep the rest of the pollen, but im not sure how to do it..Any ideas..That 1 PB is so fricken nice man, love the color

you could build a chamber like i did if you have other ladies near by and collect the pollen. you can just lay some wax paper underneath the plant and every few days change the paper and put it in a jar. moisture is bad so you have to remove any plant material and let it dry before sealing the jar. then you can brush it on when your ready. for me, i plucked the first few sets of balls off that formed on the dudes and by the time they recovered,they were dropping within 2 days of when i planned on pollinating so that is an option also.the chamber works very well. i open pollinated 5 ladies with 2 dudes right next to my tent and none of the ladies in the tent were contaminated. if you get a chance, you should check out the pinkbud. aside from the color,it grows very uniform as its a IBL and produces a good but of resin too. you cant tell from the early pictures pre- flower as they vary a little in size, but full flower, they are all within a few inces in height perfect for SOG.

Wont the wax paper get wet, will this ruing the pollen thats on the paper if thats the case cuz my plant leak for ever it seems?? What if i put it in a cardboard box and put the edges up so they go above the plant but it can still get some lighting and the pollen wont spread every where and ill turn my room fan off when i think they r gonna bust open...Im gonna try PB for sure, just not sure when im gonna have all these LA DIVA seeds and i have stitches new strain DR FEELGOOD AND BLUE HEM DEISEL i plan on making seeds of them to but i think 4 strians would be sweet so i could add PB and when i get to cali here soon im gonna start 30 every 20 days so ill just go LA DIVA, then BHD, then Dr FeelGood, then Pb so its always something different and all will be great strains..Do u happen to know if my LA DIVA doesnt have color and i use it as my seed maker, will i be able to get color seeds from it or will they be just like the plant i get the pollen from...Or if i put the pollen on a colored 1 will the seeds then be color strain or no cuz they will take after the plant that made the pollen???Thaanks for the help boss

i think the box isnt good if you have ladies in the vicinity that you dont want pollenated. pollen can travel very eaisly and i would personally contain the dudes. i dont understand what you mean about the wax paper getting wet? if you meant putting the plant on top of a peice of wax paper you misunderstood. i would put the wax paper under the plant but on the surface of the pot so it drops right onto the paper. i cant say for sure about your la diva seeds turning color as i dont know the genetics but if the girl isnt colorful there is still a chance the dad can pass on colorful traits. i know with the PB, the breeder says its so hard to lock down the pink phenos because sometimes the pink dudes dont pass the trait and there are green dudes that pass the colorful trait, so if your serious about the breeding, i would seperate and collect each male specimen and then do a documented pollination so you know if your dudes pass the traits you want.

okay bro sorry i gotcha with the wax paper...I wasnt thinking..lol..I will def do the wax paper thing for sure...How long do i dry it out for, hrs or days?? and then just put in a glass jar?? I just wanna see some color but honestly the green/white phenos r normally better(thc wise)..Once im moved i will def have a seperate room to do things in but right now im in 1 contained room and at a friends place also, wanted to do things in my closet but vent/stinky bitches is impossible cuz i CANNOT cut holes in this 100yr old home...So i have a space but its just 1 8x9 room decent size for sure but sits at like 60-65 degrees as its outside with a door that allows this cold ass air into the room but hey gotta work with whatcha got..My ladies r bout 15 days behind where they need to be due to cold temps and i started them in bigass buckets to see if there is a difference, didnt wanna transplant but now i know i should have...Anyways thanks for the help FJ

DAY 54
whats up everybody just figured i would update since everything is winding down. been busy at work so i havent been updating like id like. everything is going great and the girls are getting ready to get chopped in 9 days, day 63. its smelling like candy and fruit in my room right now. ive fed them a few times over the past two weeks with the fish & HPK and now they just got their last slam af HPK 2 days ago. i will flush in a few days and just let em go. i cant wait to smoke this shit. on another note, the seeded plants are coming along and should be ready in about 10-15 days. from the looks of everything, i should never have a problem running out of pinkbud seeds, at least for the next 5 years anyways LMFAO!!!!!

thanks bro. i was checking your thread earlier and you have some beauties yourself. i never thought i would say it but im really digging autos now. they have came along quite a bit since they hit the scene and i think there are some strains out now that are definitely worth growing. thank god for the breeders that never gave up and made them what they are now.
