    I will be pollinating a lower branch of each of these girls with regular and feminized pollen when lights come back on tonight :p

  3. By the time the lights came back on to take pics, I was hurting too much so needless to say no one received pollination though this morning I noticed the reservoir was dry so I refilled it with 6grams Mega Crop and 3ml's 3% Hydrogen Peroxide per gallon of water.... hope they like it

  5. Thanks!

    The deed is done! I used SST (Sodium Silver Thiosulfate) feminized Purple Narwhal pollen with a few nanners on Purple Narwhal and Niceguy regular pollen mixed with toasted flour on Niceguy

    The girls will be sprayed down in the morning just before lights off then when they "wake up" I will turn the fan back on :p

  6. I am studying grafting. I some day will be growing a mother plant with many different branches of different stains growing from one root.

  7. And I will be following :p I saw a post on here about it sometime over the winter - looked cool and a fantastic idea for those with plant counts :passing-joint:

    It appears PN took in the pollen though NG did not....probably too much toasted flour so I will dust NG again tonight

  10. I forgot to update yesterday..... 2nd round of trying to pollinate NG with regular NG pollen mixed with toasted flour. This time, I dumped the pollen mix into a plastic baggie and enclosed the branch for 24 hrs

    We'll see if it took in a couple of days

  12. Mom are you trying to make seeds?

  13. Yup! I collected the pollen a few months ago.....this is my 1st test with the STS (Silver Thiosulfate solution) pollen to see if its even viable as he/she didn't throw pollen like a male..... hoping for the best especially since this is a very limited release strain and I misplaced my remaining 2 seeds.

    For future seed making, I want to keep it limited to my new small
    2' x1.5' x2' cabinet. To test it out, I have 4 CBD Lamb of God going in there now:

  14. WOW! They look fantastic! I find the whole pollinating thing fascinating especially as I'm trying to run away from pollen in my house it seems all this summer lol:hola: Aren't you worried about pollinating your other girls you have growing? What kind of physical separation do you have bewteen plants that are girls you are flowering indoors and girls/males you are cross pollinating indoors? Wondering about the safe distance you use, so interesting:hola: How many total plants do you have growing right now Mom?

  15. Thanks! My boys are too especially the tree pollen

    Nope

    My main grow is in my room.....no boys are allowed there and get chopped pretty quick. Over the winter, I set up a small homemade tent with a few 1x2's and mylar in my mud room to check out turning a few strains just so I don't have to buy the seeds again....this wasn't very effective as I was trying to turn several....some got pollinated though I didn't know what to what so I discarded them and decided to do 1 strain at a time seeing how I am getting more regular seeds than fem's.

    So I set down a plan of keeping it to a micro grow....the intake and outake has a couple hepa pollen filters to limit pollen escaping......when moving pollen, every girl/potential girl nearby gets sprayed down with water.....same when pollinating except the target branch is covered so it stays dry then after I sleep a bit, they all get sprayed down again including the pollinated branch............. this is the best way I can think of to limit exposure - so far, so good

    I think I burnt them a bit when I added 6grams micro crop the the reservoir so I backed it down to 4grams and had to turn up PN's carrot a couple notches as she started to wilt but all is back to normal now :smoke:
