May have to use the F13 males on the Jamaicans as the Double jam male is a male hermie, Dang it! I do have some old Tom Hill haze pollen frozen that is getting a bit old.

Air layering is a option if its late in flower or you're unsure about cloning, I can't find photos I've too many but there's a variety related to Air layering it's no difficult and very reliable.

It's a handy method to know about it has its place in late cloning.
Thats a cool experiment, I saw it on youtube for some types of hardwoods or rare plants.

Hey LT

Sounds a touch out of control at the mo imo. I’m of the same opinion as @Old Piney on this one I would take the conservative route even though it will cost more in time. It will ensure a higher likelihood of the desired outcome.

Are your end goals to have cuts of each plant Backed up both males and females?. Also to have all plants currently flowering to be open pollinated?

The main thing for me right now honestly is that the females are smale as well. They arent going to give me much seed. Its a seed tent with a small led. I saw pollen fall off of one of the f13's today do I think I will pull them and put them under their own light for a couple weeks. They can go on the side of my other tent and I'll hook the exhaust to pull on them so nothing gets loose until its time to collect.

Once I collect the male pollen I can re evaluate or go for a straight reveg and have the pollen for later. I prefer to pollenate them all at one go so I dont miss out on any good keeper females that would pop up.

My veg is on LED so its slow as heck so I have time to probably do them now and reveg.

Have you grown the (DJs?)f13 before?
What’s your opinion on it?

I have grown it several times. It is his finest work. A blueberry sativa expression with great taste and euphoric enlightening experience. I ran it over 10 years ago and tried a few more packs. Last original pack didnt germ. Even the replacements wouldnt go. Last year I ran the 7 or 9 release. This is my second pack and the last pack of it I could locate. Good germ this time and several males. Hope to back it up so I don't have to worry about not finding it again. Its one of my favorites but a bit mutant so needs time to veg and its all heads not looking for production.

Nice mate ....back em up :)
I’m not sure if you’ll ever find those again retail from DJ, they sound discontinued.

Have you done Flo before?
How did it compare to F13 if you did?

I’ve only ever done the blueberry from DJ and shiskeberry both were good but blueberry was amazing outdoors.
I’ve had Flo on my list of must do for donkeys now.
