Question for ya'll: So I have a couple clones, a male and 2 females, been rooted for about 2 weeks now. I was thinking of putting them in my flower tent where I have mostly just vegetables, but also a female about 4 weeks in, and she goes about 8-9 weeks. I wanted to take that male and flower it out with the two female clones, and harvest seeds from them to play around with. If I put them in now, by the time the male releases pollen, would it have a big effect on the other plant in there? She'd be around....7 weeks then? Should I wait a few more weeks until I can have that one done by the time the male releases? I also have a smaller tent where they would fit, but its not as powerful light.

I would wait. I pollinated a couple ladies last week, and can already see seed development. Half started seeds are way worse than mature seeds, b/c you don’t know they are there until you taste them in your joint or bowl.

Thanks for the info, I hope I didn't lose out too much on potency, here was a quick shot of the trichs and I see a bunch starting to go amber and alot cloudy so I'm hoping she will still kick my ass.

This is the keeper pheno I am focusing on anyways. The bud is straight pinkish purple with a really nice grape, acrid, candy smell which is still changing. Never seen purple bud with so much trichs, This is that pheno I posted before which has turned out truly dope.

208? Oh shit, you reppin that area code? If so, those spuds better up their game.

Nice work, that looks tasty af, glad to know you kept it!

Coper Orgi contestant #3, day 60 something, smells at first of mint and faint ripe cantaloupe, then loud pink bubblegum dominates eveything else, with a little salty fish buried quietly way down deep. Really unique combination in my experience. Bubblegum and a wash of spearmint are definitely the strongest smells.

Thanks. So what if I throw them in the other space by themselves, and flower them out til the male pops? Then, after a few days, say 7-10, could I wet it down and then move it over to the other tent?

I don’t know your space but I would say if you have two tents in the same room, and one has a male dropping pollen, you are going to seed both tents. Maybe just a few in the tent with no male, but pollen is a bitch, it gets everywhere, and finds its way through intakes, etc.

Haha I just saw this. I am here for you mate, in good times and bad :bigjoint:
Only playing, buddy, I appreciate your support, regardless of how my efforts perform. Changing the recipe and blaming the author seems madness to me, I will endeavor to do no such thing. You have definitely inspired me to deconstruct the problem from a different perspective. Thanks for that at the very least.

It's in my basement, and one tent is tucked away in a closet on one side of the basement, and the other is a pretty well sealed cabinet about 40 feet away. I think you're right. I'm just gonna wait a couple more weeks and trim the clones down, then flower them out when I know the other one will be done quick enough. Thanks for the input.

It’s my birthday! Happy one to Julianne Moore and Ozzy Osbourne, as well. (We are all such inexplicably sexy bitches...especially you, Julianne Rawr!)

Drunk before 10am, derp. Insomnia ain’t just a river in Egypt.
They played a track off of "We're only in it for the Money" this morning on my community radio, and it reminded me of you. and I was like, fuck yeah, zappa at 530 on a monday morning! Happy birthday, do the things you enjoy doing with the people you enjoy doing them with.

Id say you'd be fine. Just be cautious with pollen and spray down after a couple days.

I pollinate plants with other plants in the same tent using a qtip and rarely have seeds in non target plants. Just turn off fans and know any breath or air flow will send plooen flying but its not too bad in my experience.
