I have one cubing thing going on at the moment, 2nd cross, first backcross with seeds from the first cross.
Here's the deal, my kid grew out another plant, bagseed, but much higher quality that gave me my original male.
I would have bet money it was a female. Beautiful growth habit, tight internodes, no male traits at all. The thing is, it never showed pre flowers. Has had alternating nodes for at least a month or more, but no pre flowers.
I took clones. The first attempt was 100% failure. My fault, being lazy and sloppy. Went back to my tried and true RW and Clonex and had 100% success.
With 8 clones well rooted, I took the seed plant outside for some 12/12. Imagine my surprise when male flowers showed.
Anyway, I still have extra clones from the strain I am cubing and this male just shows much better traits, late flowering, compact growth, tight internodes .........
So, I'm going to chop all the males since the 3 clones I set out are well knocked up, bring those in, and put a couple of clones with "the new guy in town".
Should be able to get them preggers before the first frost and I know the seeds will develop nicely indoors.
Then we'll see what happens.
