I have 5 seeds of blue streak and 5 seeds of dc/alf that i'm going to be growing out. i plan on taking the most vigorous blue streak male and using it's pollen on the best looking dc/alf female. i just put them in water last night. i will take pictures when i put them in the soil. the rest of the female plants will be grown out in my veg box along with some regular shnazzleberry and swiss cheese plants.

Sounds interesting, I'll be watching.... do you transplant at all, and if not what size containers are you going to be using, those same cups from your other grows?

the only transplant these guys will see is from the water to the soil. i have learned that transplanting autos will slow them down quite a bit for a week, so i don't do it anymore. they are going into 6x6x7" square pots.

Good luck, I got some BS on the go aswell... just wondering where you get the white pots? my pots get really hot in the mid summer heat in the greenhouse but with white pots it wouldnt be so bad. (im looking to get some from uk)

4 dc/alfs and 2 blue streaks popped their heads out of the soil today. once they get their first set of leaves i will take pictures.

Still waiting :) Since you are pollinating said female plants, would you isolate the male collect pollen then use different techniques to apply the pollen on pistils or let it do its natural thing? Are you trying to get the most seeds per plant if so what time do you usually apply the pollen for the most seeds, I was thinking when a decent amount of pistils are showing and a very small cola is just starting to form, or does it not matter when the pollen hits in your experience? sorry about all the questions I'm just wondering that myself and am doing something similar hope you find some keepers! ;;

i wait until i see the male pods start to open then i brush the whole plant across the female and shake it a little over the plant. when doing this i will get between 150-400 seeds. which is what i want. i do this when i see pistils on the entire plant. after that i will let the male grow for about another week then cut it. i place it on a magazine with a hard cover and let the pollen drop. then use a straight razor to get the pollen in a pile.

STB - where did you get the DC/ALF seeds did you cross them your self? Are they 100% AF? Looking forward to seeing the pics.

they were sent to me from a friend in spain. i had a bad turn out with them last time. i can't wait to see the results this time. all seeds that i germinated sprouted. they have really took off this time. will post pics of them when the first sets of leaves show. i'm also going to include the pictures of the s.b.r and sour snow that i'm about to chop. probably by friday.
