freaks:i freeze the pollen once and then it stop working i think just the fridge is better idea.these girls are getting even better than previous,show pics soon
Hi! as u can see the new 'mish-mash"seeds are allready developing,everything is fine for now. the plants are into 5th week flowering on these pics. i still feed them only with home made nutrients exept the palm tree ashes. this time i,m gonna try some horse manure tea but i,m not sure about proportions and stuff like that. i removed all the fan leaves yesterday because the light was not enough for the buds under and they look even better. usually i dont remove any leaves or i remove them when they are almost ready. but in this case i think thats better. Those strains are with very fat leaves,some of them were making serious shadow but they were so green and huge,i just left them 'till now
this is how i mark the pollinated plants,soil,strain...real mish-mash here toothe red means that this plant is pollinated with some f2 male. f2 is some mix. I still don't give them names i think this time i will have about 20 seeds from each plant,i need the buds for smoking mostly so i dont pollinate much,just the smallest under.
For freezing pollen, i know some guys who use it...after drying he put a pollen in a scealed bag in freezer....
and the pollen is usable few month i think with a loss of viability of course (in fact, i dont remember well now..)
freaks:if someone knows for sure tell me. i,m not sure the pollen was dry,so may be i didn,t freeze it right. now i just left whats left on the terraceHere are the plants without leavesi gave them some nettle yesterday,i think they like it. mordor:me too
they will be two months flowering on 16 April,but i must leave them about nine weeks,so i think they doing great. this time i will wash them a little because they starting to explode after flushing. after that i will use some horse manure tea,i think it is good for flowering.
"frosty" What a wonderful word u used,i was wondering how was it on EnglishI,m not sure why but some of them are getting almost ready faster than previous. Can it be because some of the smallest buds are pollinated?
hallo! I cut one bud on two months flower. It is hard,i think i can wait the others a little bit more to 9 weeks and harvest. this time i made little mistake,too much flush for a bio grow i think. but the buds are nice and heavy and i have no time to cure the yellow leaves,so... The seeds are getting ready but this time i will wait them as long as it takes to be sure that they will germinate good.
thank u,it could be better I put some beans for outdoor too,because they will show even better buds than this. in fact those are 4,5 different types of plants but i like those with Mazar mother most.
hallo,Mordor! About horse manure:this is what my grandma told me about making a manure tea. half manure/half water an u leave it about week or two,sometimes shake it. than the ready 'thing' mixed with water again. i use 1,2litre from ready mix/10 litre water. but the proportions can variate,so check it again in the net. i try it for first time so i,m not sure when,there is nitrogen in it,but more K than cow and some other manures so i think it can be good for flower. i saw it is great in compost.
the seeds are great,this time more than i expected haha but the rest of the buds are saved virgin i still have that pollen froм WW/LA Conf f2. i will try if it still works.
dread;thank U!
