Quick question on breeding

If I pollinate 1 branch of a flowering female will it still produce bud & seeds or will all the energy go towards making seeds on that 1 branch? I just wanna know I I can breed and flower at the same time with the same plant.

The pollen will only produce seeds on that 1 cola if you are careful.

You can actually polinate 1 female with several different male plants

you can seed one branch with no worries.

About how many seeds would I get out of pollinating 1 branch?

Depends on the size of the branch, anywhere from a dozen to a couple hundred.

Here is a couple of photos of buds off of one plant showing a pollinated bud site and nonpollinated you will be able to see a large difference in the amount of resin between the two. Sorry my image hosting won't put up full size photos on RIU but the smaller pics might help and you can follow the links to see the full size photos.
Amazing plant though, I pollinated one branch and you can see with the naked eye the differences between the pollinated and nonpollinated by the amount of resin. I hope this helps answer your questions.

i see 2 completely different buds.

are they on the same plant? the same part of the same plant? different plant, same strain? different plant, different strain? need more details.

i have a garden full of seeded and nonseeded plants. i have never seen any difference.

you would have to understand the purpose of resins to even begin to start this argument. the seed is why the plant lives. to make it. why would it stop resin production once seeds started to form? does the resin call in pollen? i thought resins protected the plant. wouldn't it want MORE protection if it was growing seeds. seeds are the seed of life. one would think a seeded plant would have MORE resins.
