Note to self, it’s not a good idea pollinating lower branches that don’t get much light but here we go again super lemon smac x sugar cone I can’t believe I haven’t came across a combination like this before

Gushers (Plushers cut) loaded with Gushers S1 seed.
Dang everyone wants Gushers crosses & you're making S1's lol! Got me wanting to crack into my throwback Rado gear, I will soon enough.

Tropic Heat (OGKB x Purple Punch) transgender. How do yall collect pollen? I usually let my fans do the work but don't need a fully seeded crop this run.

Yeah I was thinking of making some crosses but seems like theres a lot of that out there already. The Gushers makes an incredible male, it dumps as much pollen as a regular male almost and its very viable.

My favorite way to collect pollen is to let the male go until its about 75-85% done flowering, then chop up the male flowering clusters on some parchment paper and dehydrate it for a couple days. Then ill sift out the leaf material with a fine mesh bag over a glass table or something like that. Collect the pollen (which there will be quite a bit) and use immediately or put it in an airtight container, add some silica desiccant beads, and throw it in the freezer for later use.

Thanks. Got the clone in a solo cup so its not big, wonder how much it will put out. What about the flour thing?

What do you mean it's not a good idea pollinating lower branches?

When ive done it, just pollinate the lower branches, harvest the uppers when they are done, leave the lowers and allow them to continue growing until seeds are mature.
Well another thing I forgot to mention is the deficiencies I run into every round of flower that eats up most my lower leaves that I’m pretty sure plays the biggest role in it

When did you pollinate and for me I can’t never get my buds below the canopy to develop seeds I would think for obvious reasons
I pollinated 4 Banana Spliff and one White Widow with pollen from a male Banana Spliff, just a couple days shy of them being in flower for 4 weeks.
In my experience lower branches are a good spot to get seeds from, and save your top buds for smoke tests.
I have also seen cases where no amount of pollen made seeds, so that could be for other reasons.

cheers,

You know when you first started smoking, and get a bag with some seeds in it and you're all pissed...fastforward 30yrs and im totally ecstatic when i find 1 seed on a branch ive been waiting 2weeks to see if the pollen took.

I've got some Sour Diesel crosses that I'd like to pollinate with a male that I found in a pack of
White x Chem D fems.
I'm curious to see what he brings to the table.

I'll be hitting some lowers of these 3
Roasted Garlic Diesel = Chemdog D/Chemdog #3 x East Coast Sour Diesel x Sour Diesel ibl by Inkognyto they're 6½ weeks into flower

I may hit up some other varieties as well
