A pic to show how you can keep males for an extended amount of time in a small container. This cut is around 4 months in a solo, cut back and grown out several times under low light. Once the fresh cuts I took of this one root, I can toss it and start the process over. Able to keep many different males in a single tray until you grow out their progeny to figure out wich one/s made nice babies.:D

Soil or coco?

Okay, I have a weird question that I don't understand how the heck this happened. I managed to find this fully formed seed on a mother plant that has only been under 18/6 lighting. I did do a pollination in another tent so stray pollen was near, the mom was stressed at some points and did have some preflowers showing but I didn't think it was possible for seeds to be created under a veg lighting period.

Has anyone ever had this happen? The bract was just near the bottom where a normal preflower would be popping out from.

Here's a pic of what it looked like from a similar looking one but with no seed inside. This plant had not been revegged, just ignored for a while and was in rougher shape.

Yes, in veg the plant will produce 2 calyxes on each new node, this is somewhat negligible, a calyx is fertile for about 2 weeks after the cotylydon protrudes from it, maybe slightly less, but in veg you have a small window for a miniscule amount of calyxes to be pollenated.

so i figured i'd start posting in this thread since i've been chucking quite a bit lately. My most recent was Ak Bean Brains vintage blueberry x blueberry muffin (mom) hit with a stud i selected from a pack of strawberries n Cream from Exotic Genetix. I'm calling it 'Blue Cream'. I posted lots of pics of the BB in the Ak Bean Brains thread and the SnC male i used had a crazy fruity stem rub. I've already started shucking the seeds and its safe to say i'll have a thousand plus. Hopefully its a good cross LOL.

my other breeding projects over this past year have been

Lime Bx (male) from Mean Gene x Wedding Cake
x GG4
x Sour 91 (top dawg)
x Lime Bx female
Sundae DriverBx from Cannarado F2's

I hunted though 10 beans of the Lime x Cake and found some gems one in particular has a very key lime pie terp with heavy gas

Well the cap says MBM, and I don't know what that means. I grew some plants in the back yard there, and I set up my first indoor garden too.

Of course the only seeds we ever had to grow were "some seeds from a really good bag." :lol:


:mrgreen:
When will I try to germ them and how ? Already having hell trying to germ old beans.
to the point old bag seed like urs will be tried before trying more known valuable-genetics.
My old good stuff is circa 03’ from overgrow days

I like hempy usually 2 gals but I'm going to do 1/2 gals going forward since I'm doing SOG as well. For now I would say grown them out & take clones to run instead of seed plants. Seed plant in that 32 oz will be root bound by then. I use a coco & peat mix then perlite on bottom.

Also I want that Golden Goat BX from Arise!
Why coco and peat ? Never heard that combo particularly for Hempy buckets. Thx

Honestly don't remember. I reuse my medium & sometimes I buy more coco or more peat to re add to the mix. I probably did it to combat the whole LED coco coir cal mag thing but I don't worry about that anymore so just stuck to what I had, mixed coco & peat. I never done a pure perlite hempy tho.

Check it out yall, I pollinated my Purple Afghan with Irene S1 reversed pollen. Put her back in flower for a wk then back to 18/6 to reveg & finish the seeds. I heard you could do this from the breeder at Irie Genetics & sure enough it works. Seeds are done & the plant is in good shape to start growing new clones once I cut top growth back to harvest seeds.

Don’t see myself doing this often but at least I know I can get my chucking on & save some space in flower tent for smokable buds

It really is! Glad I came across that info & tried it. I been away from boards or lurking but had to post my results for yall to see. Going to pop the seeds soon!

Also working on new chucks with Breath Ray ( Sun Maiden (Grape Stomper/ Chemdawg OG) x Gratefulbreathf2) getting some good funk from short stout male & have a female that smells like Grape Stomper. Sun Maiden was one of grail smokes that got away from me, trying to get it back!

A dried lower from my chuck of AKBB (NL1/Big Skunk x NL1) x Eki Bird (Vashon seed)

Finished outdoors early/mid Oct at 44 lat. Realllly nice calming potent stone, very pleased in that regard.
I have used Vashon Early Bird as the male in a few chucks. Always passes on big DENSE flowers and a early finish. So far I have run it crossed with Mother of Berries and Sunset Strip outdoors. Both showed a very noticeable increase's in yield compared to the moms while retaining mostly mothers terps and were ready mid to late September at the same latitude with only super minor issues with mold.

I plan to make some Shaman X Vashon Early Bird this winter, interested to see what mixing it with a old school Dutch outdoor strain produces.

I have considered picking up Eki Bird just to see how it compared to the Early Bird. Cool to see you had some success with it!

I tried pollinate a flowering plant liké that worked really well and i was able to get around 10seed without seeding my flower , been sitting on them for almost 2years , i was blocked in my home country with all this COVID shit , but i think i will try to sprout them soon will keep u updated about them
