Lol. I was only guessing. I think there needs to be a pee_er reviewed study, with plenty of pee_ers involved. -granger
Bugs are a big issue...you'll bring them inside after being outside a few months.
I have a question:
I started (germinated) really late due to legislation in Oregon. It only became legal a few weeks ago and I didn't want to have seedlings in the garage when it was still prohibited. Next season I will be able to do a full outdoor grow. So right now I have seedlings that are just starting their third set of true leaves. There's not enough time to flower them outdoors because it will be late October/early November by then. Should I grow them outside with the glorious August and September sun and then move them back inside to finish or should I just keep them inside?
If I do take them outside for a couple of months, how big do they need to be before I harden them off?
I know bugs are more difficult to control indoors with the lacking of natural predators. So, even if bugs are in control outside, that won't necessarily be the case indoors? Is this the general concept? No way to do a treatment regimen before they come inside?
Not sure what the risk reward is here because this is my first time doing an indoor grow. I'll be using a 400w MH (veg) and 400w HPS (flower) for hopefully 4 plants. Maybe they wouldn't benefit much from being outside .... I'll have to experiment
Weather charts are showing warm weather all the way into mid November...I wonder if I shouldn't just try an outdoor grow..hmmm. All I have is regular seeds. What I really need is some clones.
Hello, Any aul farts got an answer about drying the pollen will the pollen last in the canister without freezing
Hi i got some ak-47 from serious seeds, i have a male & a female if i make seeds from from these will they still be AK-47 and if i make seeds again will they still continue to be good quality ak-47 plants? Not to be too technical but would like to have my own seeds and ak is a good strain to start with, thx for any info
I was also wondering how long it takes to dry pollen for freezing? Do i just leve the pollen on paper overnight then pack away? I read that u can make small packets of pollen, so i just made some small wraps with pollen in them & have them in a film canster havent put them in frezzer yet.
The first offspring of the original parents are F-1s. Then F-2s an so forth. If you're doing rigorous sampling and selection, which takes a long time, they should get more consistent with each generation. It's all complicated. That's why I gave up on all except the rare case. Takes a lot of space too. Something I don't have in spare. Good luck. -granger
Yeah people that do develop strains grow hundreds, even a 1000 plants to try and have the best chance at finding the right genetic mixture.
Not necessarily....finding a few good phenos from say 20-25 plant...there's always bx-ing that helps the vigor. Of course you need pollen.
I cloned all my plants ,,female's of course,the question I have is today I found my first hermie,it was a small clone,,its the only one that did,it's been out doors,doing fine, if i transplant that clone and pollinate some plants,,with it will all the seeds be hermie..all my other plants are all female's,,all flowering,.or should I just kill it,and avoid a catstraphy,, HAPPY GROWING..
