Same here. Imo a lot more work collecting & storing pollen for me personally than to just keep a small bonsai clone going.
The only reason I collect and save it is to be able to share, and it is easier to share a vial of pollen...at least for me. I am thinking of keeping a few male clones this round, especially some of the more expensive genetics.
a few Honeystompers bringing on the frost early....
I get a big grape pixy stick on one, the others I can't place right now..View attachment 4037550 View attachment 4037551 View attachment 4037552
So far two of my Honeystompers have been male, got one more of the #2's and and 2 more of the #1s so I'm still hopeful that I'll get a female. The two males are really nice though, and I think I will save some pollen. I have a nice Honeybee F3 female. It will be interesting to see how she compares to her mother. The Slymers and Meltdowns are all doing great. One of the Slymers has shown sex and is a female. I seem to be acquiring a pretty nice pollen collection. I see a lot of chuckin' in my future. :weed:

That’s a good point about pollen sharing. I agree on keeping males from expensive or limited run seeds just to make more of them. Im saving a male from DVG Swamp Thing but its nothing standout, may just reverse the best females they are coming along nicely!

dunno @genuity ... theres a possibility a new thread dubbed 'Chuckers Nightmares' could be viable with monsters like the below coming along every now & then? this chuck consisting of IHG Platininum Buffalo(f) x Cannarado Barney Rubble in theory should have been a combo made in heaven yet the outcome appears more like a match made in hell? approx 40% have this structure or genetic defect, another Platinum Buffalo crossed with GDP x C99 has approx 20% of this same issue? plant is approx 3' high & female

I definitely do not like growing them kind of plants,not fun at all..
Flowering them out?

So I have 1 Irene S1 x Double Jam out of 8 that smells like candy lime like the Jack Durban I grew. I was mistaken on the last random chuck I flowered out then as it was Morning Breath x DJam not Jack Durban x DJam. So the male is bringing those terps which im happy with!

This pheno the male creates seems high in limonene. The smoke was very good a bit racy too. I have this RudeGyal cloned thankfully as I only took 3 clones out of 8. Cant wait to see how this one further develops. My new Cree fixture is kicking ass!!

yes i will flower them all out to see the end result ratio of good to bad...but got a strong feeling this batch of beans will be binned...life's too short, gotta be at least 80% good before i keep a chuck!
I will be interested to see what the buds look like. I have a Deep Blue x Smelly Cherry that looks like that. I planted 5 seeds and it's the only one. The rest are perfect. It might just be a screw up on my part. :dunce:

I'm planning on making some F4's and F5's of a couple of strains I have going. So I'm curious,
At what point does the inbreeding become counterproductive? Do the recessive genes eventually become too prominent?

i had a cross that sort of was similar last yr, it ended up such a weird thing with a half golfball size nug on the end of each branch...plant 3' high yielding 5 grams! those beans were binned real fast after that episode!

im not sure, im just a simple pollen chucker and do not know the finer points beyond that

i am no expert either, others can chime in. but when trying to breed for certain traits, by gen 4 or 5 most desired traits have become uniform.

I was just looking at this Panama from ACE, which the website says is an F8-F10, so apparently you still have ways to go. Good luck and let us know!

Pure pollen chucking for personal pursuits here. I made a cross of OTIBG x Bodega Bubblegum. The OTIBG is left over from a pack of duds. From a ten pack only one male and one female germinated. The male was crossed to a warlock female. The resulting cross had two phenotypes. One warlock and one OTIBG. I’m hoping to get a bunch of Bubblegum dominate plants out of this cross.

i have a little strain i created and am trying to stabilize with more desirable physical traits.

Crossed Crazy X seeds Trainwreck IBL with an absolute stud, Sour D male. Call it Sour Wreck.

So far a few F1's are growing like trainwreck and it will be 4-5 weeks before i smoke her.

i backcrossed a few branches of buds with the Sour D pollen again hoping to find something with shorter nodes and less stretching out of the new seeds.

if the high is as good as i expect i will keep pursuing a shorter version of the hybrid.

ECSD Pollen? Now that would be nice.

1 of them purple punch 2.0 will get lucky,and dust up my Dessert breath keeper cut.
Got a female purple punch 2.0,but she will not see the flower room no time soon..

That purple punch 2.0 male will hit :
