I wouldn’t think that dusting a femmed seed plant that was created by a grower would be as risky as pollinating a female from high priced bagseed, say from a Dead concert or some such thing. The bagseed probably came from a mom with genetic intersex tendencies without stressing or being treated chemically. Discuss.
How many seeds were found in what quantity of weed? 1 seed in oz? Id say errant pollen of unknown origin could be male female or intersex. 1 seeded bud in an oz? Could be either intesex or fem but you'll never know unless you know and trust the grower.
That is unless of course there is of course a test? Does anyone know how an intersex plant will show on tests like those offered by phylos? Do they have an indertiminant result?

If by bagseeds from a Dead concert you mean chems, I'd agree. I don't have any personal experience with it but I've read the 91Chem S1s show a good deal of intersex traits/true herms.

But, I haven't found any herms in worked chems from regular seed
Only a few late nanners the last 7-10 days of flower and only on the initial seed run.

This is one of those things that worries me about gifting out the F2s I made from Top Dawgs gear. All three of my Guava D moms threw late nanners from seed and they all displayed that mosaic pattern ChemD is known for. A little foliar of mag usually clears it up but its there nonetheless.
I'm going to assume any seeds grown from chucked chems would have the same tendency for late nanners.

Edited to add: I don't see many Chem S1s. Possibly because femming those cuts doesn't work out and its best to outcross with regular male pollen. I'm not sure but I'd like to hear more on it too.

I think I'll include this post in a note with the seeds I made. Hopefully people familiar with chem genetics wont take it the wrong way.

Just a precautionary heads up.

Do as you see fit,I just wanted to give it a name.

Looking good,hope you get some big ghost og nugs,that start of with some kind of sweet terp,then harvest and dry into some skunky funky,still mild sweet of some kind..

Got yet another noob question for you fine folks. Am I right in thinking that it would be better to have males start flowering before the females I am wanting to dust? I am thinking it would help insure I have enough pollen for dusting. Especially because the earlier I can hit the females the better.
Cheers :)

Idk what everybody else does but if im doing open pollination I start my females a couple wks earlier, but my outdoor never works out that way and I have seeds deep in the buds. Myself id rather have some flower development then pollinate where the seeds are on the outer part of the buds, better yields that way but just make sure you have enough time for the seeds to mature. But if you are going to manually pollinate I would say you are correct give yourself a little time to collect.

Bk took the best to the silver, chunk has some sac but not as many, more every day. The gorilla bomb is simply in there to catch pollen.

That's half the fun, and that's a cool name.

Yeah it’s barneys chunk, got it as a cut from a friend, I have grown it out a few times really nice smoke every time, after a good cure it was a sweet peppery smoke that felt really medical, took away all the aches and pain. I had a pheno that smelt like sweet cheese was super frosty

I've never had issues pollinating fem'd plants. Now reversing a fem'd plant might be a whole other story but its been done, a lot. I mean gg4 s1, chem s1, gsc s1 all were selfed plants that get selfed by many breeders and those come out alright. I guess its a crap shoot and you really never know till you try. Cheers and happy chucking

What exactly did you mean here about the S1s, I find making S1's is a good way to preserve genetics, or did you mean chucking with S1s in general. Didn't understand what you meant.
When I first started,s1 was being advertised as "mom in seed form".. when clones was hard to get..
When in reality it is just the mom being stretched thin IMO,which results in (mom & all her cousins & ugly friends & they one male friend).

I just don't see it,but I understand kind of..

Fem#10 x Fem#27 of the same strain seems so much better.

But I have never made any,so all of what I just said is stoned talk
