Hey all I am starting a job at a dispensary in Boulder CO on Monday. Part of my job will be conducting experiments on production lighting techniques new variety developement, building Led lighting, and a host of other misc other responsabilities. I am to say the least excited. One area I have been interested in since reasing RCCs "Marijuana Botany" has been the use of colchicine to induce mutation in a particular plant, and possibly its progeny. The hopes of course would be to develope something truly novel. And this novelty would hopefully be in way of cannabinoid ratio and profile. I would not however be disapointed with a verigated plant of malformed leaves.
Has anyone attempted this and/or have 1st hand knowlege of results from this type of treatment.
I plan on using autumn crocus juice and spraying the plants thoughout their lives and heavy doses when they begin to produce seed. No material treated would EVER be used as medicine. Triploidy and tetraploidy is the end goal if the results are favorable. For all I know is could do the exact opposite and ruin the plants if it doesn't kill them.
And yes I am fully aware of the genetic issues that can arrise if I am exposed and that this substance is mutigenic across the board. All precautionary measures will be taken. Nobody needs to get hurt.
Peace
