    quick question regarding pollination

    so...seeds from this endeavor have been planted, harvested, and I'm late into a second run. None of the seeds from either planting have been autos. I've had a mix of male/female plants from both plantings. The resulting product has been better than expected (good enough that I had no second...

    quick question regarding pollination

    I agree HP...I obviously underestimated the potential for "freeflight". the smoke is still decent, just a pita getting it ready now. lol I hadn't used that tray in quite a while. live and learn

    quick question regarding pollination

    yea...apparently I wasn't as careful as I thought. lol ended up with a bunch more seedbuds than I thought I pollinated. better luck next time I guess.

    quick question regarding pollination

    I'll probably give some to a friend that has much more space than I, let him road test, and see if it might be worth it to use my space. :watchplant:

    quick question regarding pollination

    Thanks Duck. I had no idea what to expect by using the auto. The actual project was my first attempt at pollinating specific bud sites. It remains to be seen just how reckless I may have been. It appears that the marked branches are the only sites producing seeds, so that's a plus. Kinda...

    quick question regarding pollination

    hey all, I decided to experiment with pollinating particular budsites. I have a blue mystic auto(nirvana) and I brushed with the pollen from a blackberry male. the seeds are beginning to appear. it seems that I was successful in not hitting any but the chosen buds. my question is...what...

    nirvana wonder woman and ice grows...

    came back from the out-of-towner and several things happened. but first, let me add, I removed one of the ww ladies and returned her to veg before I left. in hindsight that was a mistake. ok...so I came home and discovered that I had lost all of my vegging plants. evidently my watering idea for...

    Placed my first order with Nirvana!

    I posted this to a different thread a little while ago, but it still applies. also, nirvana is now offering 10 free seeds with every order. I did notice that they have increased their prices however. so I guess it's all relative. I've ordered directly from nirvana several times. always reg...

    out of town watering...

    let me preface this segment by saying that I leave for the trip in two days, so fine tuning time is now. wow...good thing I ran a practice run on the auto-feed system. I'm such an idiot (please, no need for confirmation). I flipped everything I had growing just to make it simpler. having all...

    pollen question

    ok, perhaps I don't understand the difference. if a plant hermies, will it be the whole plant or just random buds? I may have been confused. all of the plants that I've referred to as hermies have had only certain buds produce seeds. I guess what I'm asking is how will I know if it's a trait in...

    didn't forget about you GG...I'll let you know about the system once I get back. if it doesn't work out there won't be much sense in singing it's praises.

    nirvana wonder woman and ice grows...

    week 6...flipped all three wonder women. didn't really want to, but with the trip coming up it will just be easier to utilize the autofeed system with them all in one place and all using the same nutes. plus, a few of the branches snuck beneath a shelf in the veg station and decided to show...

    pollen question

    it couldn't be because of residual pollen in my flower area? hmmm, I just assumed that the pollen had somehow contacted the flowering females, particularly since I had been growing that strain for a while with no problems, and have grown it since with no issues. all of the hermie issues have...

    pollen question

    thanks all... I have many females in various stages including clones. and THG you're absolutely right, I don't know if these strains are keepers. I really like the ice strain and have never finished off the ww, so we'll see. the result of all of this is irrelevant. I just want to see if I can do...

    pollen question

    "go to seed" was just a figure of speech THG. I would have thought that the rest of my post detailing my intentions would have made it obvious but you seem to have taken it a bit too literally. so, your answer to my specific questions is to read?

    Early flowering outdoor

    unless you're dealing with autos, when a plant "finishes" is dependent on it's light cycle. plants finish differently in different geographical locales. plants adapt to the change in the season and the shorter sun periods by going into flower. you can determine when it'll flower by altering the...

    pollen question

    one of my wonder woman plants has shown itself to be a wonder man. :eek: so...since I'll be out of town for a little more than a week, I've decided to isolate this guy, hope it lives while I'm away, and let it go to seed. I plan to fabricate some sort of tray or pan beneath it so that...

    nirvana wonder woman and ice grows...

    thanks, since it was a mom for quite a while it bushed out really nice. it has many colas and most are long and fat. she is so thick and bushy that it was difficult to realize just how big these nugs were until I started moving things around. I gave away my scale because if leo were ever to...

    nirvana wonder woman and ice grows...

    while your point is made and absolutely understood. the fact is that I'm really not hurting for space. I grow for myself only and I have more than enough smoke for that purpose. I posted a different thread about hiding my plants for my home appraisal that explained the "camouflage". the herbs...
