04.14.23 - Start of Week 12
Flower - Week 6 - Late Bloom
Pollination - Week 4
I hesitate to say all is going well given the prevalence of seed pods in all plants now, and most buds, but they're there and I'm going with it. I've brought the Girl Scout Cookies back into the tent as it looks like the damage is done and there are no more pollen sacs in sight. My plan is to just harvest whatever pot and seeds I can get - I'll determine what to do with the seeds later but will label and keep them. I'm researching what kind of seeds I'll get and how to harvest both the pot and seeds now. Considerations are that the Girl Scout was a loser, but not a hermie - and it appeared to be stressed. The question is whether this genetic trait would crop up again in its own offspring as well as others, or if it would be healthy? Or is this a good stress which is what a breeder would want...could I have successfully cross pollinated the other three with GSC to create some new feminized strains? Or have all 4 been similarly stressed to self-pollinate themselves which might not be an ideal seed to grow as it would have the same gene?
