got bitten by a spider and realized i was always wondering what my spiritual animal was, and realized it was spiders after that awakening of asking mother natures help me and spiders made a blood pack and since then nature has been helping me out by protecting my plants, from thieves and bad rotten people. and nature gave me spiders to protect my children. one of my spiders thats protecting the rooibaard is called GREGGK.

GAVE UP ON THE LIGHTS, and decided to just let her do her own thing, some times u have to let your children grow their own way, and just hope that u loved her enough.

Where did you get the seeds? I got Rooibaard as a freebie from greensmokeroom and wonder if its legit
DigitalJockeyKing
DigitalJockeyKingcommented5 years ago
@VitaminGreenGrow, nope. u need a same male strain's pollen to pollinate the same female strain to bring the a second or third generation female back to a first generation strain. the female's seeds mostly are just females a generation later that has adapted the history of the previous growth and history into the next generation. but too many generations of the same female will become harder to manage and care for if u change your growth and environment after the previous generation , making it into a worse strain than the original. hence u should stop growing the same strain after the 3rd gen to preserve natures's gift to us. otherwise the mirror effect will catch us and we will never see male plants again and the females will die quicker.

@DigitalJockeyKing, If you have a female you can selfpollinate?

@VitaminGreenGrow, when i was 12 it was the first weed plant i found in the mountains were i grew up in, 28 years later its been a struggle to grow, with so many paranoid and destructive people in my life ...that i could only now grow legally.. the seeds of the rooibaard i stored over the years.. i could only grow and then pollinate most of my growths so that i could have fresh seeds over the years. so after this moerse struggle of untrust worthy people i only had 5 seeds left and the last time grew rooibaard was 7 years ago. so only 1 came out. not gonna sell seeds more like register it as a south african land strain. so that as south Africans we can proudly look back and remember our past. but yeah strangers are popping up and it starts feeling like its getting harder to protect my plant's future.

@Canna96, thanx its been stressful, seemingly i want her to bigger and stronger, but since my last grow attempt 3 years ago that ended in disaster, i have 3 different strains and they are all flowering in the first month of growth so i'm kinda scratching the hell out of mind trying to figure out what the hell is going on.
