Definitely a sweet set up Sea:tiphat:
Mines very simular, but my totes aren't transparent..... maybe a window will be the next mod lol.

That EG x FC male does look nice.......
I gotta hunt down some "cookie" pollen to cross with the New York Cookies I got.. decided to pass the cuts on so to have more space available but want a cookie cross for back up b4 I do let them go.

I didnt want the hassle of worrying about venting heat from an internal bulb...
I hadnt run cookies as of yet... the forum cut didnt look like it put out so I skipped it.
I should have a cut of chunkys ogkb2.0 before too long... looks like it puts out a lil more so I'm gonna give it a shot.

Evening yall....Couple of quick questions....perfect thread for them :biggrin:

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Trying to get my timing right here. once i start flowering 12/12 a female i am trying to reverse. how long before i should be able to collect pollen? and then once i have the pollen.....@ what week should i apply to the plants i am trying to pollinate? What are the windows of opportunity here? I know each plant will be different...but ballpark figures?

That's a damn nice isolation chamber there Sea :tiphat:

I leave about 5 weeks from intended estimated chop date to allow a full 4+ weeks for the seeds to get all plump... as far as reversals, I tried CS but I sprayed the catpiss the first try until its leaves looked purple, then they tarnished... it stunted and died... the purple grey tarnish would not come off the leaves... the 2nd try, I went lighter, but that damn catpiss would not reverse... I was gonna try some STS next time I try... hadn't gotten back to trying to reverse that as of yet.

What technique are you planning on using to reverse with?

I agree with what Sea wrote..... leaving the beans to mature a good 4-5 wks is good.
Depends on the method some what I usually run the reversing plant a wk or two ahead of the one you intend on pollinating. Or simultaneously I usually want to be able to get the pollen and go directly on to the plant.. fresher the better lol.
I am in no way a expert tho...

Here's that Strawberry diesel male going full bore, definitely provides plenty of pollen so far... give es off a nice stank too.

These are the outdoor strawberry diesels, male and female. Side by side in two gal pots.
The female is about 3wks, and the male is a little over 4wks into flower..... Looking like plenty of f4s to start with. I took cuts of the female and plan on running her again indoors at the same time making f4s with the other male.

hick, damn there is some pollen there!

silver nitrate / sodium thiosulfate, was just about to search for hammer's post on the mix.....i have it wrote down somewhere too but probably faster to just search hammer's posts in the the he has on it.

so tonight i will flip a gg4 and a wifi #6 after hitting them w/ the mixture.

the plants i want to pollinate need to be flipped in the next week as i am behind as it is...horrible clone round last time so set back by over a week at least...cannot flip until i see roots. these are all 63-70 day finishers. chucking pollen w/ no intention right now. want to selectively hit a branch each. ladies to be flowered and hit if timing works out are triangle trip, gg4, pre98 bubba, and emdog.

I saved his notes on the subject so I wouldn't have to search around for it again. :yes:

I do not. I had it up but there are some here that are dummy's. My recipe has all the chems abbreviated so for Sodium you cant mix that with water it will explode.. I took it down didn't wanr some idiot mixing sodium into water then losing his face lol..

I will post it here. just ask if you are not sure..

1g Silver N mixed into 60ml RO.
6G Sodium T mixed into 240ml RO
Always Mix silver N into sodium T. Take the 60mls of Silver N mix it into the 240mls of Sodium T. Pour slowly mixing fast. If you do it wrong the mix will turn brown.
Take your 300ml mix from above pour into 800ml RO for a total of 1100ml.

Spray the plants soaking wet the day you flip 12/12, then again 1 week later.

Typical spray bottle will hold about 500mls.. Ea plant gets sprayed 2x with uses about 25-50mls?. I would guess 25 plants

I had...

OK im going to be reversing a Sour Dub and another GG#4.. I need someone to verify my STS recipe is good to use...

1. 1.6 g of Sodium Thiosulfate into 100 ml RO
2. 1.7 g of Silver Nitrate into 100 ml RO

This is the stock solution to make STS as I need it. The bottles will get stored in the refrigerator for up to 30 days.

3.slowly pour 20 ml of silver nitrate stock solution into 80 ml of sodium thiosulfate stock solution to make 100ml of STS to spray on the lady's 2x everyday...


Can someone please verify this for me....Im going to post in the gg#4 thread as well...

It was then verified by a second person with the same recipe...

sounds like some nice potential fem crosses... hows the wifi 6? I'm only familiar with the wifi43

mixing into different amounts of water... the mix is still Silver Nitrate + Sodium Thiosulfate

one seems to have much more sodium thiosulfate up front, the other uses more of the st stock solution...

probably equates to the same thing except in one recipe, you're making a smaller amount

the ratios are different.....g/ml

sent hammer a pm......when i hear back will post answer. both probably work but i know he was tweaking it trying to get optimal results.
