You’ve got some nice stuff to play with!
Looking forward to hearing how the HP goes, if you get a good male there’s no second guessing who’s going to be the stud for the girls.

Is it only you and me doing F&D on this thread? I saw your method on a thread you did.....nice! Have you tried bennies or just running sterile?
Yep I agree, apparently the pure line is not all that but the out crosses from it can be special. We will see.

When I run F&D I run sterile but never say never with the bennies, I just stick to what I know. Right now due to the pheno hunting and breeding etc I am running top feed dtw as I can pull males and move plants around but I think next year I will go back to F&D for a couple of years of simple production. I like to experiment to keep things interesting and top feed seems to be the industry standar but I have had more issues since switching. Probably still at noob level thats why :?

Time to bite the bullet on this Gelato OG girl, so she's coming down tomorrow.

Apologies for the poor quality photo's....

I've just taken the majority of fan leaves off already in anticipation of the chop first thing in the morning.

This girl alone will provide me with more than I'll use in a year.

I just love growing/nurturing these very pretty plants.

Edit: I should point-out that I chopped half of this plant early (the branch ringed with the black cable-tie), as it had already been treated with CS & was in danger of cross-pollinating everything in the vicinity. If left-alone, it would've been MUCH bigger.

This one is going in the ground next year.

I’ll be giving bennies a try next run. Built a tea bucket the other day, got vermicompost / EWC on the way, and started with the great white and Rizo at clone.
Have normally been running sterile, I must have shares in OxyPlus by now.

Agreed, F&D is great for pumping it out, not so for mums and pheno hunting / seeds. I run my mums in coco top feed dtw so I can move them around.

I've been spraying 1 x IB & 1 x Gelato OG clone with 50ppm CS for the past few weeks & pollen sacks are starting to appear. The "turned" plants themselves are looking decidedly ordinary, whereas their untreated siblings are absolutelyfine/healthy.

Sprayed Gelato OG:

Treated IB:

Now surrounded by her untreated siblings in the greenhouse:

Help @bobqp ! Is it normal behaviour for sprayed/reversed plants to look like they've been put through a wringer during the reversal process? The only difference between the sib's is that some have been sprayed with CS & the others haven't. I'm not overly fussed if this is normal behaviour, just after a bit of reassurance is all.

Hopefully, now let seed production commence!
Gray matey. Yeah the stronger the cs ppm the more the plants look weird. 1 use 30 ppm . but your treated plant should bounce back. I seen treated plant of mine ten times worse when I started using cs. Nice looking females natey you should make a lot of fem seeds. Keep up the good work.
