I think he is going to reverse one of the four, and use it to pollinate the others. Good luck. I'm gonna follow this project.

If the "super male" turned mostly female, I'd be worried about the "super male" just being a "hermie" female that showed the hermie part (male flowers) first. If it was mostly a male, with a few female flowers showing up, the way male flowers show up on female hermies, then it might make more...

Reversing a plant has nothing to do with it having male chromosomes. Silver works by inhibiting the production on Ethylene, which is the hormone responsible for causing cannabis flowers to grow as "female" (calyx + pistils) instead of "mal"e (pollen sacs). When you use colloidal silver on a...

They'll all be autos. You can also reverse one branch on one plant, and self-pollinate the rest of the buds on the same plant. Check the Colloidal Silver Guide link in my sig for info, on how to go about doing so properly.

So, for stealth? Oh. I would think it is possible to pollinate a cannabis plant as long as there are healthy white pistils being produced. I don't see why the plant would make new pistils if they couldn't be used to make a seed. However, I wouldn't rule out a lower success rate as the peak...

I agree that "Rodelization" is a terrible breeding technique/practice. I wouldn't use any seeds created from a hermie, for anything other than for bud to consume (at risk that it will hermie and be seeded too). If you use them. and they do end up causing hermie problems in your future...

50/50 hermies is really bad, but that's what happens when you self a hermie instead of a reversing a complete female. Hermies should be a super rare occurrence in a good genetic line. When a plant is self pollinated, whatever genes it has get passed on from "both parents" (since only one...

Do you have any pics? I'd wait for them to open before expecting pollen. Also, I wouldn't stop spraying until the first couple begin opening.

No problem. Remember, you don't need more than 20-25ppm CS for a full reversal, and the benefit of staying so low, is that you probably won't burn the plant as much, if at all. After being strained, your solution should look like regular drinking water, until you shine a bright light through it...

That can be part of your problem. While a male, or reversed female, doesn't need to be in a huge pot, with crazy powerful lights, to get pollen, you do want to keep it as healthy as possible. Sprays that burn the plant can mess up the male flowers too. Depending on the timeline of the...

What does your CS look like, since you used tap water and sterling silver? Does it burn the plant?

Well, isn't that a first world weed problem lmaooo How are all of your seed/breeding projects going?

So far, I've spoken with two breeders who have made photo x auto crosses, and stabilized them as auto strains, and both say they haven't had any auto in f1. Does anyone here have documented proof of this, based on your own experimentation? *If it doesn't fully flower and mature under 24hrs of...

Curious to see your results. Good luck.

Mist the tent down with some distilled water to kill any stray pollen.

No problem, man. And nice, Cali's great for outdoor buds. How big is your land? Cannabis plants can pollinate each other over pretty long distances. I'd be vigilant with your bagseed plants, because they have a good chance of having come as a result of a "hermie", and may hermie themselves...

I'd be careful using a random seed you found for breeding. If it was created by a hermie parent, it'll just pass along that hermie tendency.

You can do that, but you might miss a few pollen sacs opening up though, even for just a few hours. I don't know how your garden/grow-op is set up, but if you could remove whatever makes you wanted, and still keep them growing (they need much less light than flowering females) until the pollen...

It's mostly caused by low stress tolerance. If a seed came from hermie parents, it can inherit they're low stress tolerance genes, and will be more likely to hermie itself. Stabilizing a strain has to do more with bringing down the number of phenos, to one. You can work on stabilizing a strain...

Wait for the pollen sacs to start opening before cutting them off the plant. They'll ripen at different times. Generally, you shouldn't have to do more than barely wiggle a mature one, for it to fall off. If you have to pull it, it's probably still not mature, and will have a lot of moisture...
