Hey all, jus t harvested my led cab.... got some sour bubble and gg4 crosses.
First is the Sour bubs, I had four pheno's of her so I took some sb male and Khalisi male pollen to em all.... much to my disappointed the sb pollen seemed to be some what sterile. Even after pollinating twice the number of f2s are well below what is expected, my plan is to take what little I have left to the OD sour bubs and see if I can get a little more.... hopefully.
Hate to say it but if need be I will have to go though some of the f2s and find another male.
On the other hand the Khalisi pollen after be applied once has done it's job greatly...... plenty of progeny to hunt though later.
So in all what I have is... sb f2s, sb x Khalisi, gg4 x sb, and gg4 x Khalisi. I am not sure of the total numbers where it was just harvested and drying now.
Here is some sour bubble...

All did very well considering wattage and container size.
Heres the gg4, I harvested a couple of the branches.... kinda undecided weather to harvest all or try and let her go past her prime and take a couple stress techniques to her to see if I can get her to throw pollen.

^^^^Yeah I got to hit my outdoor sb ladies with the little sb pollen I have left, see if I can get a couple.... thinking the pollen is 90% sterile where out of the 8 branches I hit of the indoor ones there was about 10 beans..... even tho I am careful with my pollen technique with the bag and spraying water before and after, what's the chance that those beans are the result of cross pollen.
Slim I know but the possibility is there. I did compare and they do seem in line with reg. Sour bubble beans..... larger than most.
Gonna take clones and if need be, try again.
All this sb talk has got me wishing I had some more to pop lol..
I do how ever have some Boggle Gum to go through...
BOG's Bogglegum Update:
2 Males: 1 Gum smelling & 1 NL smelling
3 Females: 2 gum smelling 1 NL smell.
Gum on Gum is my goal, but will still do a little bit of NL to Gum and Gum to NL. Fullest possible expression for F2s.
HALT seeds are RTG & outdoor ladies were pollenated last night.
Tent is about to come down (GG4 & Space Cooke {GSC x Skywalker!!!!!}). And veg area is totally empty. Oh MY, WTF hatch. Might slow/quiet down for awhile until the baby comes and we figure out where/what we are doing. If I get the bug (hahaha, pun not intended) I'll grab some clones or IDK.

No no not the branches I'm pollinating lol.
I first place the bag with a straw/q-tip set up taped inside it.... seal it... zip lock then tape, spray surrounding branches (just in case seal is some how compromised).... pollinate branch, leaving bag sealed on for several hours.... sometimes for a complete light cycle.. by that time condensation has lightly built up neutralizing the pollen mostly
While removing bag I mist areas around and in side the bag to make sure I neutralized the loose pollen.
Repeat if necessary.
Always has worked with out a hitch, and I really haven't noticed much if any cross pollination...... but I can't rule it out.
I'm 99% sure that the sour bub f2s are not a result of cross pollination, but just mostly sterile pollen.
When I hit the outdoor girls it will be slightly open pollinating with a q tip or brush.... their off on their own so I won't go through all the precautions.
If there's the same results outdoors then I should be sure.

Nice
^^ about the boggle gum, not the shut down....... been there, forced me into just cab growing for a while. But still a decent way to scratch the itch and keep a head stash while keeping it quiet.
Those crosses sound delicious, definitely a great hunting ground.
Wish I kept the boggles I had going, man they had a noise.... but I was drooling over something else and paided it no mind. Still got some to go through when ever the notion strikes.
