Welp.... I'm an idiot. These girls survived the heat wave that struck all my tents last week..... They survived 97 Fahrenheit only to have my stupid self overwater them..... 5 of them look completely fine but 2 of these girls are not doing so hot. It's always nice though to have a little bit of stress in the garden even if it isn't planned. It showed me which 5 I'll most likely be choosing my breeding stock from. Now I know for sure that the 5 that are semi okay are clearly the 5 identical-ish Ahsoka Tano phenotypes that I'm looking for. They'll hopefully be recovered by the end of the next week.
I feel like such a fool for overwatering them..... it happens. I'll blame it one the perpetual drinking of liquor that takes place over the holidays. Heres to hopefully a better week 6. HAHA
Man this is awesome! Excited to follow your journey. How do you separate all of them so you control the pollen and breeding? Do you have multiple grow rooms/tents?
@put_around, I close it off when I'm breeding. It is a very scary thought that pollen might escape. I try to segregate the male and collect the pollen in another room. When I pollenate by hand I do make sure to be careful and apply the pollen directly to the flowering nodes in a small quantity as needed and then shut all the vents in that tent for about a week. Pollen can be viable for a few weeks but typically if you only apply it in a reasonable amount to directly where you'd like to be pollenated you don't have to worry too much about it spreading except to directly next to where you just pollenated. It's all about being careful.
@DabCrab, that’s cool. So do you have an exhaust fan on the tent that has males? I’ve been curious on breeding a golden goat with a blue dream but I’m nervous about pollen escaping the tent and contaminating my other tent ⛺ 😬
@Gr33nGiant, It's pretty simple and easy buddy. Just chuck pollen into a safe enclosed space. That and pray for a good breeding. Sometimes breeding produce junk. I've made a few strains that are just absolute trash and belong in the garbage. Happens sometimes.
@biggreens420, I was just so busy for two weeks. lol. All my grows suffered quite a bit. It happens. I do secretly love treating plants like 💩 though. Please don't tell anyone.
@Endriu, They are derived from a White Widow X Skywalker Kush. Then I took the best male from that and bred it with a female Trainwreck to make my F1 Ahsoka Tano. I then took the ((White Widow X Skywalker Kush) X Trainwreck) Ahsoka Tano babies and bred the best tall branchy phenotype male with his female counterpart to make this F2 Ahsoka tano.
