Cross pollinating

So I got 3 successful reversals on 3 different autos, Magnum Euphoria and a Cherry Diesel, using STS. I'm wondering, if I keep them together will they pollinate themselves and will they pollinate each other? I'm going to collect the pollen from each to pollinate some photos later, but, at this stage what could it hurt for them to produce some seeds from each other? It's not going to change the pollen sacs, only the flowers that may come out, right?

Ok with that out of the way.

Wont hurt anything, you just wouldnt know whos the psuedo daddy that pollinated the plant that made the seeds youd be holding in ur hand...any of them couldve spread on a breeze to hit any of the 3...just one big orgy really

That's what I was thinking. It really doesn't matter for these seeds. They're all good strains and I would have some extra Autoflower. Appreciate it

So i thought i for a successful reversal on three autos. Do these flowers mean i probably won't have pollen in those sacs?

If you see nanners, highly likely the nanners are fertile just wait em out. If they dont open on their own and ur absolutely desperate to get that plants pollen you can open them like a surgeon using a razor and theres pollen in there. Gotta knock what little is in there out on paper or something to collect it. Done it myself

Appreciate it. I think someone had told me before that if my plant had flowers, female parts, that it meant that I did not get a successful reversal. But, I used STS this time around and the sacs are healthy and plentiful on these. These are autos and I am checking them every day, not really knowing how long they take to mature and open. Its like they budded over night and the sacs are growing fast. I had an unsuccessful reversal with CS last time and am a little scitzy about when to start pulling them. Thanks again

I’ve got my eyes on some F4’s for father stock. Wondering if the pollen from an F4 male is still potent/viable? No point in buying them if that far down the process the pollen is compromised. Thanks for the input

could have just harvested the plant and be fresh pollen, f4 just says what generation it is, not when the pollen was collected.
