God be with him, Daves correspondence is warm and he's an open heart, good energy to him

Hey guys, I just wanna say thank you for the updates, it really means a lot. Prayers, green gardens and positive vibes!

Hawaiian Cat Piss.

I have three out of five confirmed males flowering in the 2x2.

Here are the other two. I am 99% sure one is female, the other is throwing me for a loop (still in veg, training and getting roots into SIP water).

At nine weeks from wet seed, I'm surprised to not see a pistil - but I've heard some genes don't preflower much.

Finished the VBB today. Good plant. Blueberry with some cherry syrup smells to it. Didn't weight it yet.

Hey guys just a little update on Dave. I txtd him last Friday and he said he's healing up good. He said he's going to be down for a couple of weeks but he's healing up ahead of schedule and things are looking up. I was happy to hear it. He's an awesome dude and hopefully he'll be with us for many more years to come.

Good to hear! I’ve been wondering about him, thank you for the update

100%! I didn't grow for many years and when I got back into it I tried several "breeders" gear. Most of it was trash. He's got the goods and is a square deal kind of guy. Every pack I've popped has had something cool in it. I'm glad he's healing up. The world needs more like him.

Growing some Hawaiian Cat Piss, making some seeds. I have a question, especially if anyone is familiar with this strain. Which male should I use?

My original plan was to gather as much genetics as I could through "open" pollenation. Turns out that of the five that popped, four were males. With one female, I'd rather do a cross.

One male was crap. Spindly, fast, and showed deficiencies unlike the other four. Axed.

Two other males are nearly identical to each other in growth and appearance. They did not flower very quickly, and grew similarly to the female. I saved pollen from those two.

The final male I planted as though it was female. Before two weeks of 12/12, it showed no gender! But the sole female now sits in the flower tent next to a budding male. Male is on the right:



I like that the tent male took so long to flower, but I like the structure of the other two males (the tent male is stretching like crazy in flower). The other two didn't flower very fast, but definitely faster than the tent male.

So would it be better to chase the structure, or the slower flower?

I’m not experienced in breeding yet but have ambitions. Putting a question out there to the breeders, What are the pros and cons of putting 3 strong males in a room with on female? Wouldn’t this be a good way of opening up your genetic diversity for future runs?

Since you have limited genetics I'd use the pollen from the three males you have and pollinate her with all three so you'll get the widest genetic expression in your seeds. From there I'd pop more seeds and begin to drill down as you get more females and can expand again if you choose or start selecting.
