jepa this pack is just for finding some good Sd-fueled males
there was no problem with finding a good pack with 10 nice brown beans, the shop owner had let me search through the SnS packs they got
@ sati , there is a good way of testing the males potency.
generation is f2 ! select out all males of desired phenotype and cull the rest , then smoke and select the fems , if all fems (no matter which pheno in f2 ,there WILL be a big diversity !) are on par with the potency or maybe above , so the initial male (#1) used wasnt bullS*it , and therefore the other males have only 50% chance (genetically ) to be crap ... its important to test every generation the fems to the bone for any weakness or what ever...
last but not least they reached sexual maturity

jepa i got a stud , he´s strong growing and very tough , he withstood thripse attack without a problem or being stressed in case growing , for sure he´s no auto-flowerer so nothing is lost since its only one boy left which met my definitions of a Venomberry99.
soon he´ll get a bigger pot and flowered out to get a good bag of pollen from him.
after he supplied enough pollen he gets killed as i dont need him any more, the next males are his offspring to look at ...
got any pics of that boy? during the thrips attack did they just leave him alone or he didnt get traumatized but still had them. those traits are very well looked for by serious breeders i know, I sure like to get one generation in to fight any and if not all the problems such as pets and mold/mildew. in the end you get some very strong and healthy plants. after he gives you all the pollen you need you dont keep him around? if its a very excellent male i keep him, dont believe in backcrossing or what?
just for you jay hahaha j/k sure ill take a pic tonight when i make the others as well.
Sure he got invaded by them , they tryed to suck his cells empty .... but that wasnt a prob for him, he grew much faster than they could reproduce and i trapped them slowly for a good result.
Sure i want to bx VB but to the fem side as i dont think ill get EVER a VB99 fem which is on par with her, so i want to cube every gen back to the original girl used in the initial cross (f2s) , thats my plan...
just looked after SnS and hella i see some taps lurking out of the shells
this left a big grin on my face ....
72 hours - 10of10 - 100% strike rate - today ill repot them in small pots and then in 2 weeks in 1 gal for a good 6 week veg/fim to get a bunch of clones of every individual ...
i have access to a second flowering room for testing purposes ONLY ; lit by a 600watter ~ 66 w/sqf
so its more than possible to flower out 10 clones per fem and ill go with the males as i got much more exp with keeping males . Sure ill flower out some fems, but only the SD fueled babies, i dont want to play with the sage spectrum ....
these are like 1.5 weeks old. It was topped right after i took the last picture, now i counted 6 tops this morning and another 4 more about to rise above the covering fan leaves. I highly recommend topping this pheno
nice pix og
i dont top my clones in flowering, i´m used to top them and then give em a good 2 week veg before entering 12/12 ...
my mtf pheno is much more sat looking ... how many seeds did you pop?
ill take some pix when lights go on ...

i only sprouted 3 seeds, the MTF pheno got stolen (rippers broke in, didn't take equipement, just 2 bagseeds in flower and the MTF pheno) but i still have clones. Another was a male that i culled, and this is the last one. During the rip this plant actually had a working cfl drop on it which bent and burnt a lot of the stalk, but as you can clearly see...
