Wrap your heads around this.
So I've been noticing last 1hr or little more before my lights shut down for the day my Og looks sad and a little droopy(My MK-ultra did this but others did not on last grow). Everything is ran with a sentinel so enviroment is good. Water is good not letting them get too dry, and watering in the morning. No nutes just water ph'd with hygrozyme(less than half strength).
But next morning and throughout the day she is perked up and looking awesome until last hour. Is she getting too much light as in hours? I wouldn't think one hour less would start kicking into flower when I see landrace plants around here veg for a month and a half and then flower and a max of 15hrs of light on summer solstice. So I guess my theory is 17/7 crazy talk? I think tomorrow if she still is doing it then I might try it.
It strikes me a little that two strains Ive grown done this and they both supposedly have OG in them Scratch Scratch.

Thanks guys... Still have to pull the boys out... Most have showed sex but Im going to give them a couple more days so they become more definite....

As far as the pollen IDK either... The Shiva Skunk is NL#5 x SK#1 and the Corleone is Pre 98 Bubba X SFV OGK F4 ...
I dont know the difference between F1's and F4's
Can someone help with the subject and let me know if I can keep pollen and/or make seeds

This is a question for the breeding wiz DST.....head on over to the 600 Breeding Showcase and ask him the difference between the two.

Ya its pretty simple, If you are able to let males finish out somewhere away from flowering, And I mean away from them. Then choose which one you think is better of the males not sure what your looking for on height but Id pick my shortest most vigorous male and let him grow out some pollen sacs till one or two open up and pull them off and keep in a plastic baggy. It doesn't take much to get a lot of seeds.

Thinking of using a lil watercolor brush to apply... Ill put some pics up of those male sacs and maybe you can let me know how close they are from being ready

And they will open at random too. Don't have a fan on them. And when you start too see them starting to open take them they will open overnight.
Shit just thought of this. When you have a branch with some pollen sacs that to open yet just snip branch and put them in a vase(water) under neath some plastic I think they would keep growing and open up but not sure. Just thought it would be of a way too collect it. And it will make a lot of seeds every spot you hit on female were calaxes are you will have a seed.
And heard brush way is the way to go so you don't have seeds everywhere just where you want them.
You can even apply some pollen right at the main stem where branches shoot off they will make 1 set of seeds at every node. That way none in your bud, but you prob want a lot though.......
Here is some buds that got pollenated and nodes where the biggest nice looking seeds but some in the buds but not much.
Check out some of Subcools stuff on how he pollens I think he waits till flowering is 4+ weeks in but not sure.

When you guys cut and hang a whole bush do you remove any of the leaves? I'm trying the whole thing cause last time I had a lot of hay smell.
