Pollinate

ObloTheGrowerstarted grow question 3 years ago

Hi folks, I want to take some seeds for new crosses. What if pollinate just 1 stem of an auto strain around 15-20 days before harvest? Does it decrease the resin quality general or just that stem?

nah its perfectly fine to pollinate a couple of branches even pollinated buds are perfectly smokeable and potent but i’d give them month to 5 weeks for the seeds to mature. just to be on the safe side.

Seeds take 4-5 weeks to mature properly. Pollinated flowers will stop producing trichomes.

Are these nanners developing?Can anyone identify if this is the early stages of nanners? The bright, lush green growth at middle top of picture is what concerns me in particular. I will likely chop tomorrow or the day after - but want to develop an eye for identifying nanners ASAP.

Trichomes don’t mature I’m flushing slowly, has been almost two week now. Just water with PH between 6.5 and 6.8. The plant seems ready, pistils are brown for 70%, yellow leaves are dropping off, but I don’t get why trichomes are still transparent, they aged slowly compared to the rest. Is it normal?

Is this plant a boy?So two of my plants have flowered, however a third seems somewhat shorter and doesn't seem to have Pistil. Is this plant not yet flowering, is it male, or is something else going in here. Looks healthy other than that.

Different Phenotypes?2 plants from the same seed type purchased together. They look really different. I thought the one with the swollen calyxes was hermed, but research said otherwise. But one has trichomes and decent smell while the other has faint smell and no trichomes to speak of. Thoughts?

Colas to close to each other?I am a little bit worried about the colas growing quite close to each other, and quite dense (the side branches are basically all start to grow into the main bud of the cola). Should we do something to get a bit more space and ventilation inbetween? (more pics and video in diary)

Main versus secondary maturing This secondary lower buds seem to be maturing faster than the main colas. The pistils are turning dark faster on the lower than the upper. Not by much, but it's noticeable. Maybe a week or so? BUT, should I take the secondary buds first and leave the main colas to mature more?

These have been grown in 91 degree heat for their entire time growing. I can't change that the heat killed off some trichomes. But what is your opinion on the doneness of the trichomes that are there? If the pics are not clear enough I can use my real camera versus my phone. THX

Autoflowering photoperiods.Is this common or did the growers get my seeds mixed up? They are supposed to be Photoperiod Super Skunk. They are in the last week of veg and look like they are 2 weeks into flower. Day 49 veg planned on flipping after 50.
