Im not going to lie im so jealous right now I wish I was making seeds right now.. I wanted too but lack of space. Trying to make more, or figure it out anyway.
Great pics buddy. That hash macro is sweet. Im planning to pick up some type of bubble hash bags. I had some before but my old place got ripped and I hacent got around to getting more
Yo man
Go ahead and make some seeds then!
Choose a few proper males, flower then alongside the girls and chop the stems of the flowering branches to drop pollen in a box away from the grow.
Around day 15 pollinate a few branches of your chosen moms and cover them in plastic for a few days. Then remove the plastic and spray with water to stop contaminations from spreading around.
You might need to let those branches go a bit longer than the rest of the harvest.
Hash bags are of limited lifetime. After some use they release plastic shreds from the bags into the hash or clog and need to be changed. The ones from eBay work well and quite cheap.
However, you might want to look into static hash sifting, it seems like the next big thing from where I'm standing.

I actually only have female cuts right now and some unsexed stuff im testing for reef. My place is small, right now I have an absurd amount of seedlings and cuts in a 850 sq ft appartment. I was planning on setting up a breed tent bjt im short on places to put it.
I have pollenated girls in my rooms before but I really need to try keep this crop seedless. My buddy needs a supply and im trying to set it up him and his uncle buy off me. They live in a remote area and can fetch insane prices if my shit is top notch, which means ill make more too. Im strongly considering quitting working everyday and just growing.
When I move at the end of february ill have more space, we are looking at places a little bigger, and the prices out there are better, 400 bucks a month cheaper for rent. We can afford to buy out there but we will rent another year and find a perfect house so I can have the setup I want, including sone breeding rooms. Eventually I too would like to move from making flowers to seeds, unless canada goes full legalization then I would do the seeds and flowers and own a coffee shop or something.
As many things in life, You get what You pay for.
Quality wise Bubble Bags are superior to the cheaper alternatives on ebay/amazon.
The materials used to produce the cheaper bags, is of a very low quality, doing the contamination fonzee talks about, from day one(1).
And wicked work with the hash bro, looks on point (taste wise
)

We used the cheap bags without a problem. Once the fabric loses its flexibilty, 10-15 runs, it should be discarded and replaced.As many things in life, You get what You pay for.

There is alot of qualites out there and some will last 10-15 runs as You state (thanks for numbers) while others will last shorter / longer.
But if one wants to be sure, there is no problems as in contamination, odors / color washing off , quality bags are worth it IMHO.
Happy sunday !
I got the same problems with the expensive bags with about 50% more durability. Prices were around 10 times higher than the cheaper bags.There is alot of qualites out there and some will last 10-15 runs as You state (thanks for numbers) while others will last shorter / longer.

Whatever you end up doing I advise looking at your hash with a scope to determine contaminants content.
Which brand?

Right on man! Breeding is so exciting.
How many grams of seeds are you getting per plant?
What kind of % do you get when you pop beans you made? Im curious because when I make seeds I usually have a really good germ rate. Yoursulook excellent so I would imagine 90%+
