can i be zen and say "as long as it takes

Yeah, I can see what you're saying already. I had a few Sweet Skunk males that I quarantined (kinda) and 2 of the three took about 5 weeks to nut, but the other one was dropping pollen everywhere by day 14 of 12/12. I was not expecting that!can i be zen and say "as long as it takes
each strain is so diffrent . many grow roots and finish out flowering with water roots . some dont...
i had some hazes go 13 weeks and some cookies and cannatonic go 5-6 weeks ... soooo yea i pluck the first nuts sometimes and wait checking 2X a day...
Same here with the allergies. I have it so bad my sense of taste has been ruined for YEARS. No bullshit though, YOGA. With proper breathing. Tai Chi also you will be amazed. What I do for pollinating is use an Al B Fuct style 'clone box' vented out the opposite end of the house through HEPA filters. So I flower males and females straight from clone right in the 'clone' box. Way I figure is small seed batches equal the same odds from smaller runs. For flower I am using pallets the way Calicat does his from seed runs so I use a combo of teks learned exclusively off RIU to manage pollen and seed count. Not kidding myself that it is more than a hobby.I harvested my first batch of pollen the other night. Fuck me. I have seasonal pollen allergies, and turns out marijuana pollen makes me sneeze like a mofo too. I'll be amazed if my flower room doesn't end up all seeded. Smh. I need to revisit how I go about this. Letting the males get huge and gently tapping the branches makes a huge mess. Joe Danks method of clipping a few branches and putting them in a glass of water before they open up seems like an easier, less messy way to go about it. Back to the drawing board.
I did manage to collect a bit of pollen though! lol
Man I find that so strange! I used to think people who said that were full of it until I saw multiple friends break out in hives brushing against a few leaves! I would be so very very bummed if I was allergic to any part of the plant. But hey! At least you're all good when it's cured and ready to go. And isn't that what's most important?
Totally! I've had some shoot Ron Jeremy loads about 15 days in! Others have taken so long I end up culling them before pollen drops (6plus weeks). I've flowered males under t8 four foot shop lights. Tbh honest they seem to looooove it.can i be zen and say "as long as it takes

Yeah,I'm in the same boat...can not wait to get full soil mix going again..
Yeah I may increase their feed. It has been really humid lately and that could be causing them to drink less maybe.
looks like iron clorosis but that is a toughy .
They WANT you to go to the NEXT LEVEL. They WANT to grow themselves. They want all control. They want to create soil structure themselves. LIVING ORGANIC SOIL. Those three words mean EVERYTHING. My soil is now somewhere around 12th generation recycled and keeps getting better. I almost ignore growing the plant. I grow the soil. The technologies available to an organic gardener far surpass synthetics. Bokashi, bio carbon, worms and microscopes ftw. Composting is such a relaxing hobby too. And very cool people dealing with the organic crowd. Like one percent of the arguments and bullshit from the hydro crowd.
yes playing with poo can be fun i guess...but your right
Well if you are like six years old I guess playing with shit is fun lol. My plants happen to be vegan. Animal manure is not actually the most abundant or best fertilizer far as nature goes. Nature uses humic material. Microbes feed off that, plants feed off dead microbes (to really over simplify the process).
This is year 2 of making seeds. I took extra male and female clones and paired them up in soil containers on the back deck. Grape smuggler m and f, and a chernobyl male w/ a cherry white female. Pollen dropped on the girls just a couple of days ago.
LOL !
Fwiw I've seen some of the most insane arguments/beefs/battles in the organics section plus beemo claims to be organic. So not sure I can agree with that claim. Lol. There are douchey organic growers and douchey hydro people. For the most part people are douches. Animals are much better.
